11 TRANSPORT IN PLANTS
11 TRANSPORT IN PLANTS Translocation 11 TRANSPORT IN PLANTS Long distance transport occurs through vascular system, xylem and phloem called translocation through mass flow. The direction of translocation may be unidirectional as in case of water and multidirectional as in minerals and organic solutes. Means of transport (Short distance transport) The transport of material into […]
