Question
Chapter 36, Problem 2DA
Summary Introduction
To determine: The effect on the movement of water through the plant when the radius of the xylem vessel is increased threefold due to the occurrence of mutation.
Introduction: The movement of the water occurs through the xylem in plants due to the exertion of the osmotic pressure. Roots are the specialized structures of the plants, which facilitate water transport to the various parts of plants to perform the photosynthetic process to generate energy and oxygen.

When farmers apply too much fertilizer to the ground, the solute concentration is higher in the soil than it is in the roots. Explain how this would affect plants.
And place these structures in the order that water passes through them during transpiration: endodermis, root cortex, root hair, spongy mesophyll, stomata, and xylem.
