Answer |
| Phloem |
tissue in plants which transports sugar and other organic molecules form the leave to roots to other parts |
| Xylem |
dead cells adjoined to form collumn transporting water and minerals from roots to leaves. |
| What does the transport system in ferns conifers and angiosperms do? |
moves water from the roots to leaves in xylem tissue and transports orgainc molecules (mainlu sucrose) form leaves to roots and roots to other parts (in phloem) |
| What does transport system in a multicellular animal like a vertebrate do? |
transports oxygen from respiratory surface to tissue. uptakes the co2 there and deposits in repiratory surface. also transports hormones wastes and nutrients |
| how does water enter terrestial plants and minerals and co2 |
root hair cells (osmosis) root hair cells (diffusion and active transport) and open stomata in leaves |
| How is glucose transported around a plant |
glucose (monosaccharide) changed to sucrose (disaccharide) in leaves. moved in phloem to roots and often stored there as starch |
| how to water and minerals travel to the leaves |
transpiration |
