Transport in Plants | IGCSE , O Level Biology pptx
This presentation delves into plant transport systems by examining the vascular bundles—xylem and phloem—that move essential substances throughout the plant. It explains that the xylem transports water and mineral ions upward from the roots, while the phloem carries sucrose and amino acids from sources to sinks. Additionally, the presentation covers the process of transpiration, where water vapor is lost from leaf surfaces creating a suction force that pulls water upward, and translocation, the movement of nutrients to areas of growth and storage.
