Transport in Plants Matthew H. 9A 131002 Today I will be discussing our experiment and the basics of transport of minerals and water in plants. Transport in plants are called transpiration. Water evaporates from the leaves which cause a type of suction that draws water from the roots. The water travels up via the vascular bundles. This flow of water is called transpiration stream. Some pressure is created forcing some water out of the cells in into the spaces between the cells

the plant. This means that guard cells on the stomata are generally inactive. 3. An increased number of stomata‚ that can be on either side of leaves. 4. A less rigid structure: water pressure supports them. 5. Flat leaves on surface plants for flotation. 6. Air sacs for flotation. 7. Smaller roots: water can diffuse directly into leaves. 8. Feathery roots: no need to support the plant. 9. Specialized roots able to take in oxygen. Floating All floating plants

PLANT LAYOUT Introduction – Plant layout is very essential and needs consideration and attention from the very beginning so as to avoid subsequent problems. Though one can think of several layouts but the best one is obviously the one‚ which is both very systematic and cheap. It is arrangement of machines‚ scientific use of work area‚ easy and convenient transport system‚ easy sorting out of materials and processing different parts. Since the area has already been selected

Plant Tissues A mature vascular plant (any plant other than mosses and liverworts)‚ contains several types of differentiated cells. These are grouped together in tissues. Some tissues contain only one type of cell. Some consist of several. Meristematic The main function of meristematic tissue is mitosis. The cells are small‚ thin-walled‚ with no central vacuole and no specialized features. Meristematic tissue is located in • the apical meristems at the growing points of roots and stems. • the
