Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary mechanism by which nutrients are transported in phloem?
  • Step 1: Understand that phloem is a type of tissue in plants responsible for transporting nutrients.
  • Step 2: Know that the main nutrients transported in phloem are sugars and other organic compounds.
  • Step 3: Learn that the movement of these nutrients happens through a process called bulk flow.
  • Step 4: Recognize that bulk flow is driven by pressure differences within the phloem.
  • Step 5: Realize that when there is high pressure in one area of the phloem, nutrients move to areas of lower pressure.
