Question

E. Answer the following in one word. 1. Tissues that cause transportation of water: 2. Dead tissues that carry food: 3. Part of root that absorbs water: 4. Process of evaporation of water from leaves: 5. Pigment present in leaves that traps sunlight:​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1.The phloem and xylem are the main tissues responsible for this movement. Water potential, evapotranspiration, and stomatal regulation influence how water and nutrients are transported in plants.

Answer 2

Explanation:

1. The phloem and xylem are the main tissues responsible for this movement. Water potential, evapotranspiration, and stomatal regulation influence how water and nutrients are transported in plants
2. Xylem is the complex, dead and permanent tissue responsible for carrying nutrients and water, whereas phloem is the soft and permanent tissue play its role in transporting the food and other organic material produced by the green parts especially leaves by the process of photosynthesis.
3. However, the majority of water is absorbed by root hairs. Root hairs are thin-walled uni-cellular outgrowths of epidermis. They are in close contact with the thin film of water surrounding the soil particles.
4. Transpiration is the evaporation of water from the surface of leaf cells in actively growing plants. This water is replaced by additional absorption of water from the soil leading to a continuous column of water in the plant's xylem.
5. They do this through a process called photosynthesis, which uses a green pigment called chlorophyll. ... Chlorophyll's job in a plant is to absorb light—usually sunlight.
