What is cell X and what is it's function?
Root hair cell - absorb water and minerals
Xylem cell - transport water and minerals
Root cortex cell - transfer water between root hair and xylem
Ciliated epithelial cell - moves soil particles away from roots
Which of these factors would decrease the rate of transpiration? (choose all that apply)
Increased temperature
Decreased humidity
Decreased wind speed
Lower light intensity
Larger surface area of leaves
The image shows a micrograph of the centre of a root. Where would you find the Phloem?
What is defined as the loss of water vapour from plant leaves by evaporation of water at the surfaces of the mesophyll cells followed by diffusion of water vapour through the stomata?
What is defined as the movement of sucrose and amino acids in phloem: from regions of production (source) to regions of storage OR to regions where they are used in respiration or growth (sink)
