Chapter 36, Problem 13TYU
Summary Introduction
To explain: The pathways and forces necessary to carry water molecules to the leaves of the trees.
Concept introduction: Water is very important requirement for the growth of plants. Plants have developed an effective way for absorption, translocation, storage, and utilization of water. There is a vascular system in plants that conducts transportation of water in plants. Vascular system comprises two components: xylem and phloem. The transportation of water and dissolved solutes from roots toward leaves is called the ascent of sap.

A freshwater (very low solute concentration) plant is placed into seawater (very high solute concentration). Which way will the water move?
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.
