Translocation
Across
- 2. Active loading is the process by which sucrose is loaded into the sieve tubes, what is needed for an active process to happen
- 3. Translocation is the transport of assimilates through the plant, where does it occur
- 8. Substances made by a plant using substances from the environment
- 9. The need for sucrose molecules to be transported across the cell membrane with hydrogen ions is an example of what
- 11. the pressure that allows the flow of sap through the phloem
- 14. The process by which sucrose is moved along the phloem of a plant
- 15. A part of the plant that loads assimilates into the transport system
- 16. The sap flows within a plant due to a pressure _________
Down
- 1. When water enters the sieve tube at the source, what happens to the hydrostatic pressure
- 3. The channels through which the sucrose flows out of the companion cells and into the sieve tube element
- 4. Give an example of a source within a plant
- 5. What might sucrose be converted to before being stored in the root of a plant
- 6. A part of the plant that remove assimilates from the transport system
- 7. An example of a sink within a plant
- 10. Where does the energy needed for active loading come from
- 12. a substance made up of amino acids, sucrose and other assimilates
- 13. What happens to the water potential as sucrose enters the sieve tube element
