Design a simple experiment to illustrate transport in plants.
Give two examples of 'compatible solutes' produced by plants and explain how they can be used by plants to increase salt tolerance. Then explain how they can also be important for permitting dormancy in seeds.
Explain how being in space would affects the plant growth by analysing the differences and similarity of the functionality of the plant in space and on earth. You have to use the knowledge of transport system as a foundation for your answers.
