in plants , water is transported through vessels called xylem gravity and move water to their upper tissues ? The cohesiveness of water molecules allows them to travel up the walls of the vessel However , for most plants this is not enough to move the water all the way to the top of the plant How do plants overcome the force ANSWER CHOICES ARE IN THE PHOTO. thanks.

A. Plant Transportation1. Transport of Substances from the epidermis towards the vascular tissuesFill-in the blanks with the following choices: casperian strip, symplast pathway, xylem, plasmodesmata, apoplast pathway Water and solutes either in solution or suspension move through cells through the apoplast and symplast pathway. __________ involves movement of substances through the intercellular spaces (matrix) between cells. __________on the other hand, allows movement of substances by passing through the cell membrane entering the cytosol and transfers to another cell through the opening in the cell walls called __________. However, the presence of the __________in the endodermis before the stele where vascular tissues are found, impedes the apoplastic route, thus substances move via the symplastic route to the__________. 2.

Length of Root T Ang lira 12/8/0) ssoW Growth of Wheat Root Tips 3. Biologists investigated the effect of the presence of aluminum ions on root tips of a variety of wheat. They removed 2-mm sections of the tips of roots. Half of the root tips were placed in a nutrient solution with aluminum ions, while the other half were placed in an identical nutrient solution without aluminum ions. The length of the root tips, in millimeters, was measured every hour for seven hours. The results are shown in the data table below.
