    The document summarizes the transport system in plants. It describes how oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse into and out of leaves through stomata. It then explains the processes of transpiration, where water moves up xylem vessels from the roots to the leaves, and phloem tissue, which transports food such as sugars throughout the plant. Videos and sources are provided to supplement the information presented.

    XYLEM VESSELS
    LONG, THIN, HOLLOW AND
    WATERPROOF
    DEAD CELLS

    • FOR WATER TO MOVE


    FREELY UP THEM
    TRANSPIRATION
    Water enters root hairs through osmosis

    EVAPORATION OF WATER FROM THE LEAVES ALLOWS WATER TO


    MOVE UP XYLEM VESSELS…Transpiration is…
    The evaporation of the water from leaves to the air
    PHLOEM TISSUE
    THEY ARE ALIVE
    • Mineral ions diffuse into root
    hairs by Active Transport
    - Movement of the minerals
    across partially permeable
    membrane up a
    concentration gradient (low
    to high) requiring a lot of
    energy
    • Transports food…mostly in
    form of sugar
