What is Plant Transport Mechanisms Explained about?
Translocation, transpiration, root pressure and capillarity are the main mechanisms of transport in plants. Translocation transports organic substances like sugars throughout the plant. Transpiration is the evaporation of water from leaves, which pulls water up from the roots. Root pressure and capillarity, involving cohesion and adhesion, also help transport water upwards. Together these processes allow plants to absorb and distribute water and nutrients.
