The tissue in which it is expected to find the radioactive material immediately after exposure to the labeled carbon and during transport if a scientist has exposed a leaf to CO 2 labeled with radioactive carbon-14. Also determine whether the radioactive material will be above, below the leaf of a plant or both when transport is completed. Concept introduction: Phloem sap is the organic compound consisting sugars, amino acids, hormones, enzymes water and minerals. The sugar is mostly dissolved carbohydrates like sucrose. It is synthesized at source part of the plant. The source parts of the plant are capable of synthesizing sugars in the presence of sunlight by the process of photosynthesis. The photosynthetic cells present in leaves are capable of photosynthesis. Thus, phloem cells originate in the photosynthetic cells only.

Preoperative Diagnosis: Torn medial meniscus, left knee Postoperative Diagnosis: Combination horizontal cleavage tear/flap tear, posterior horn, medial meniscus, left knee. Operation: Arthroscopic subtotal medial meniscectomy, left knee Anesthetic: General endotracheal Description of Procedure: The patient was placed on the operating table in the supine position and general endotracheal anesthesia was administered. After an adequate level of anesthesia was achieved, the patient's left lower extremity was prepped with Betadine scrubbing solution, then draped in a sterile manner. Several sites were then infiltrated with 1% Xylocaine solution with Epinephrine to help control bleeding from stab wounds to be made at these sites. These stab wounds were made anterolaterally at the level of the superior pole of the patella for insertion of an irrigation catheter into the suprapatellar pouch area, anterolaterally at the level of the joint line for insertion of the scope and anteromedially at…
