Question

can anyone explain mass flow hypothesis in a clear cut i m stucked in this topic from 10.00 clock
PLZZZ EXPLAIN
​

Answer 1

• Mass flow hypothesis is also known as pressure flow hypothesis .
• This theory was proposed by “Ernst Munch” .
• According to this theory, movement of sap through the phloem occurs by mass flow from sugar-rich area to sugar-deprived area .
• Sugar molecules produced by the process of photosynthesis, moves from leaves into the phloem cells through active transport .
• This creates the hydrostatic pressure in the phloem of the plant .
• Organic substances move from the region of higher osmotic pressure to the lower osmotic pressure in a mass flow due to the development of a gradient .

Hope it's helpful to you.

According to this theory, movement of sap through the phloem occurs by mass flow from sugar-rich area to sugar-deprived area .

Organic substances move from the region of higher osmotic pressure to the lower osmotic pressure in a mass flow due to the development of a gradient .
