The rate of translocation in the phloem was observed to decrease steadily after a plant was placed in an environment without oxygen for several minutes. Why did this happen?
The cells in the plants stop respiring.
The xylem no longer takes in water for the plant.
Active transport of mineral salts can no longer occur.
The plant can no longer synthesize sugars to provide energy.
