Question

State the form in which carbohydrates are:1.transported in animals:plants​

Answer 1

In animals the body absorbs & transports broken-down carbohydrates in the body. The monosaccharide units, glucose, galactose and fructose are transported through the wall of the small intestine and then into the portal vein which then takes these elements straight to the liver.

In plants Carbohydrates are mainly transported in the phloem in the form of sucrose. The cell membrane of the sieve cells contains pump proteins that actively convey sucrose into the vascular pathways.
