MODULE 3 / 3
TRANSPORT OF SUBSTANCE IN PLANTS
Plants absorb water and minerals by the roots from the soil. The roots
have
root hairs. The root hair increase the surface area of the root for the
absorption
of water and mineral nutrients dissolved in water .
The root hair is in contact with the water present between the soil particles
.
VASCULAR TISSUE
Plants have pipe like vessels to transport
water and nutrients from the soil. The
vessels are made of special cells , forming
the vascular tissue .
The tissue is a group of cells that perform
specialized function in an organism.
Vascular tissue is divided into two types
Xylem
Phloem
XYLEM
The vascular tissues for the transport of water and nutrients in the plants
are called xylem .
Xylem forms a continuous network of channels that connect s roots to
the leaves through the stem and branches and thus transport water
to the entire plant
PHLOEM
The leaves synthesise food for the plant
.
The food has to be transported to all parts of the plant. This is done
by the vascular tissue called the phloem.
Thus . xylem and phloem transport substances in the plants.
TRANSPIRATION
TRANSPIRATION
Plants release a lot of water by the process of transpiration through
the stomata present on the surface of the leaves .
The evaporation of water from leaves generates a suction pull, which
can pull water to great heights in the tall trees and called
as “Transpirational pull”
.
Transpiration also cools the plants .
This module explores the transportation processes in plants, focusing on how water and nutrients are absorbed through roots, the role of root hairs, vascular tissue, xylem and phloem in transporting substances, and the important process of transpiration in cooling and water release. It highlights the significance of these mechanisms in maintaining plant health and growth.
