Question
Chapter 23, Problem 15WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The nonbiological analogies for Casparian strip and for pressure flow theory.
Concept introduction:
Casparian strip is a band of suberin and lignin substances deposited in the wall of endodermis. It is chemically distinct from the cell wall.
Pressure flow theory explains the mechanism of phloem transport from source to sink.
