What carries the substance mentioned in the plant?
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a Sieve cell
- b Vessel
- c Companion cell
- d Phloem parenchyma
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: b Vessel
The water given to the pot climbs through the xylem vessels and revives the leaves.
Why the other options are wrong
- a Sieve cell: The sieve cell carries food, not water. The right choice is: Vessel.
- c Companion cell: The companion cell helps the sieve tube; it does not transport water.
- d Phloem parenchyma: Phloem parenchyma deals with food, not water.
