Question
Chapter 23, Problem 12WIO
Summary Introduction
To explain:
How the plant transport might change in winters after a deciduous tree has lost its leaves.
Concept introduction:
Transpiration is the process by which water is transported through a plant and is evaporated from aerial parts like leaves of plants. A pull created by the transpiration process, helps in the movement of water and water dissolved nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorous through xylem tissue in a plant.
