5
Which feature allows xylem to stay strong under hydrostatic pressure?
Magic
Osmosis

Mesophyll
7
Water evaporates from the
Mesophyll cells
xylem
Stomata
Palisade cells
8
State the role of the casparian strip.
Filters water and ions before going in the xylem
Makes all water move via apoplast pathway
Makes all water move via symplast pathway
Controls the amount of water going in the xylem
9
Describe why carbon dioxide and oxygen do not require a transport system to travel in plants.
Diffusion
Stomata
Active Transport
They are processed in the plant leaves
10
Name and correctly spell the pores in cell walls that water can travel through.
Stoma
Stomata

Phloem
12
Explain why transpiration occurs.
The roots draw up water
The Sun evaporates water
Plant is thirsty and needs water
Due to dry conditions

14
State the mechanism by which water enters root hair cells
Osmosis
Facilitated diffusion
Active transport
Low pressure
15
Which water property/properties help pull water up the xylem?
Adhesion and cohesion
Cohesion and density
Density, adhesion, cohesion
Density and adhesion
