Plant Transport Plants are mostly made up of water. Lettuce is about 94% water and a potato is about 77% water. Plants need water for three main purposes: ------photosynthesis‚ -support -transport of chemicals Water is a raw material for photosynthesis. If water is in short supply‚ the rate of photosynthesis will be limited. Plants need water for support‚ otherwise they wilt. Water is needed to transport many chemicals within plants. Chemicals‚ such as mineral salts‚ dissolve in water and

Chemical contamination‚ with the exception of a few substances such as cyanide and nitrate‚ tends to represent a more long-term health risk. An example of this is nitrate which can cause methaemoglobinaemenia in babies. Substances in water which affect the clarity‚ colour or taste of water may make water objectionable to consumers and

Water Transport in Plants Introduction In this lab experiment‚ we set out to examine the different transpiration rates of a plant system in certain environments. Water is transported in a plant by the process of transpiration‚ which is the loss of water through evaporation from the surface of leaves. The stomata in leaves are responsible for the diffusion of water vapor. Transpiration brings water upward through the xylem in the plant. There are certain factors that can affect transpiration

started growing plants and herbs - think the best organic cilantro you’ll taste - from seeds. In the process of growing and living with plants‚ I’ve observed them enough to pick up a few life lessons. I didn’t realize how disconnected I was with nature‚ until I started having to water baby plants every day with a mister‚ and checking to see if any leaves had discoloration on my older plants.
