Question

differentiate between transport of nutrients and transport of water in plants. cbse class 10

Answer 1

Answer:

transportation of minerals and water and transportation of nutrients is a vital process for plant.

Explanation:

transportation of water :-

• it occurs through the xylem.
• it is unidirectional.
• it follows the law of transpiration pull.
• most affective transport than nutrient transport.

transportation of nutrients:-

• it occurs through phloem
• it is bidirectional.
• it doesn't follow the laws of the tranpiration pull.
• not the most effective transport

Answer 2

Animals, however, use blood pressure to propel nutrients throughout the body while plants use gravity and the cohesive properties of water to transport nutrients. The two primary types of plant vascular tissue are xylem, which transports water, and phloem, which transports organic molecules like glucose.
