The answers are "water and mineral ions" and "amino acids and sucrose" respectively.
For the xylem, it usually transports water and mineral ions that are absorbed from the root hair cells up to the leaves, where photosynthesis take place. Water is one of the necessary substance for photosynthesis to take place, while different mineral ions can help the plant by for example Magnesium ions can help produce chloroplast.
While phloem transports amino acid and sucrose from the location of production (eg. Leaves by photosynthesis) to the place where it is used or stored. Plant needs these substances to generate energy for activities such as growth by for example cellular respiration. This process is called translocation.
Both of these tubes help transport substances in the plant, in order to keep the plant alive.
<span>Cellulose is a lot stronger than starch. Starch is practically
useless
as a material, but celluose is strong enough to make fibers from, and
hence rope, clothing, etc. Cellulose doesn't dissolve in water the way
starch will, and doesn't break down as easily.
</span>Your body contains
enzymes that break starch down into glucose to fuel your body. But
we humans don't have enzymes that can break down cellulose.
Answer:
B. External respiration
Explanation:
Respiration means transport of oxygen to the cells within tissues, and the transport of carbon dioxide in the opposite direction.
