How are ions such as phosphate absorbed by plant roots?

Biology
1 answer:
vodka [1.7K]3 years ago
7 0
Plants absorb water from the soil by osmosis. They absorb mineral ions by active transport, against the concentration gradient. Root hair cells are adapted for taking up water and mineral ions by having a large surface area to increase the rate of absorption.
Uptake occurs around the root tip, into epidermal cells with their associated root hairs and into cells in the outer layers of the root cortex.

Why would a third-degree burn be less painful than a first- or second-degree burn involving the same body area?
Irina18 [472]
A third-degree burn would be less painful than a first- or second-degree burn involving the same body area because of the destruction of underlying pain receptors.
Nerve endings are destroyed in third-degree burns, which means that a person can no longer feel pain in that particular spot on the body. Third-degree burns are the most severe ones and cannot be treated easily - usually skin grafting or synthetic skin has to be used to replace the burnt skin.
