Leukopenia means a low count of white blood cells in the body. When there is a low white blood cell count in the body, and in particular a low level of neutrophils (a kind of white blood cell that fights infection), there is quite a significant risk of developing an infection, and once an infection is developed and the white blood cell count is low, the body will not be able to protect itself and fight off the infection. In severe cases , infection may lead to death.
The sucrose move in source to sieve by active transport.
<h3>What is active transport?</h3>
Active transport is a type of transport in which the cell expends energy to move solutes against their concentration gradients. The sodium-potassium pump is an example of active transport. Active transport differs from passive transport in that the cell does not expend energy.
In this case, the sucrose moves from companion cells into source to sieve elements by active transport. This reduces the water potential of the source to sieve element by osmosis, which increases the hydrostatic pressure.
