4
The distribution of the xylem and the phloem in the stem is like:

6
The movement of water up the stem is not due to which of the following?
Cohesion
Transpiraton
Translocation
Adhesion
7
Adhesion is..........
The attraction between water and mineral ions
The attraction between water molecules and the xylem
The attraction between mineral ions
The attraction between polar water molecules
8
Which one of the following is
not
a function of transpiration?
It is responsible for keeping the plant cool.
It gives leaves their green colour.
It causes minerals to travel up through the plant.
Causes water to travel from the roots to the leaves.
9
What are two types of tubes in the vascular system?
Fibers and Vessels
stems and roots
leaves and roots
xylem and phloem
10
A lot of humidity should______________ transpiration.
Prevent
Increase
Stabilize
Decrease
11
Transpiration is:
The movement of sugars in the plant
The movement of water up the xylem using osmosis
The loss of water vapor leaves due to evaporation
The movement of minerals to the roots
12
The evaporation of water from the leaves of a plant is called
Transpiration
Translocation
Respiration
Photosynthesis
13
A windy day should ______________ transpiration.
Increase
Stabilize
Decrease
Prevent
14
Transpiration carries water from the roots to the leaves. Why do the leaves require water?
For photosynthesis
To be released into the air
To cool down the leaves
To dissolve minerals
15
High temperatures should______________ transpiration.
Increase
Decrease
Prevent
Stabilize
16
Water is taken into a plant through

Stomata
17
Keeping a plant in the dark should ______________ transpiration.
Prevent
Stabilise
Decrease
Increase
18
Transpiration can be explained
by the force of adhesion
by root pressure alone.
as water moving from the roots to the leaves
by the pressure-flow hypothesis.
