Plant Vascular Tissue and Transpiration Notes

Transpiration

Xylem

__ is the vascular tissue in plants that conducts water and dissolved nutrients upwards from the root.

Phloem

__ is the vascular tissue in plants responsible for transporting sugars and photosynthetic products from the leaves to other parts.

Transpiration

__ is the process where water moves from the roots to the leaves in plants, eventually evaporating into the atmosphere via the stomata.

Factors that impact transpiration rate

Light, Wind, Humidity, Temperature
