Question
Chapter 29, Problem 8TYU
Summary Introduction
To draw:
The symplastic and apoplastic pathway of water transport in plants and label the routes.
Introduction:
When water transport occurs through cytoplasm and vacuoles of the cell; the route which water have opted is termed as symplastic pathway, whereas, when the water moves through the non-living parts of plant; the route of water transport is termed as apoplastic pathway. Casparian strips which are made up of an impermeable substance play a key role for water in switching to symplastic pathway from apoplastic pathway.

Describe the short-distance transport of water into the xylem. Use the terms root hairs, endodermis, and Casparian strip.
On this cross section from a woody eudicot, label a growth ring, late wood, early wood, and a vessel element. Sign the placement of pith and cork.
Drag the appropriate labels to their respective targets..
Direction: Draw the monocot and dicot root section and trace the symplast and apoplast route for the movement of water from the soil to the xylem. Use red ballpen for the symplast route and blue ballpen for the apoplast route.
. Trace the mechanism of carbohydrate digestion. Explain the specific organ/s that is responsible for ingestion, digestion, absorption and elimination.
