New cards

Sugar transport

Palisade contians chloroplasts; calvin cycle produces G3P and it moves into the cytoplasm

2
New cards

What happens to G3P in the cytoplasm

G3P → glucose + fructose → sucrose

3
New cards

Sucrose

The transport sugar, made up of glucose and fructose

4
New cards

Sucrose movement

moves though the plasmodesmata into the bundle sheeth then into the minor vein

New cards

Phloem Loading

Sucrose is loading into the cytoplasm though sucrose proton co transport; It is an active process; Once in the cytoplasm water comes into the phloem due to decreased water potental

New cards

Bulk flow of sucrose and H2O

A positive pressure inside the phloem allows it to go all around the plant

New cards

Sources and sinks

Source is where sugars are coming from; sinks are where sugars go to; depends on the season
