Question

Water in plants is transported by ascent of sap
takes place through
(a) cambium (b) phloem
(c) xylem (d) epidermis

Answer 1

Water in plants is transported by the ascent of sap takes place through:

(c) xylem

• Xylem facilitates the transportation of water and several nutrients from the roots to the stem and leaves of the plant.

• It is a type of tissue found in vascular plants.

• It is found in the roots, stems, and leaves of the plants.

Answer 2

Dear Student,

● Answer - (c)

Water in plants is transported by ascent of sap takes place through *xylem*.

◆ Complex tissues -

- Complex tissue consists of different types of cells which work together in harmony to perform common function.

- These are found in vascular regions of plants.

- Complex tissues are of two types -

1) xylem (wood)

2) phloem (bast)

(I) Xylem -

- found deeper in stem tissues

- transport water & minerals

- conduction takes place via trachieds & vessels

- dont require energy

(II) Phloem -

- found superficial in stems

- transport organic solutes & food

- conduction takes place via sieve tubes

- require energy

Hope this helped you. Keep asking..
