Levels of Plant Transport1. Cellular
2. Short Distance
3. Long Distance
![Page 5: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
3 Levels of Plant Transport A) Cellular Transport
The transport of solutes and water across cell membranes.
Types of transport:1. Passive Transport Diffusion and Osmosis. Requires no cellular
energy. Materials diffuse down
concentration gradients.
Problem: very slow Mechanisms
Transport Proteins Ex: Carrier Proteins
Selective Channels Potassium Channel
Found in most plant cell membranes.
Allow K+ but not Na+ to pass. Often “gated” to respond to
environmental stimuli.
B. Active TransportC. Water Transport
![Page 6: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
2. Active Transport Requires cell energy. Moves solutes against a concentration gradient.
Ex: Proton Pump (another example of Chemiosmosis) Uses ATP to move H+ out of cells. H+ creates a membrane potential. H+ allows cotransport.
Membrane Potentials Allow cations to moved into the cell. Ex: Ca+2, Mg+2
Cotransport Couples H+ with anions to move both into cell. Ex: NO3

Summary
![Page 8: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
3. Water Transport Osmosis - water moves from high concentration to low
concentration. Water Potential
The potential energy of water to move from one location to another.
Abbreviated as Has two components:
Pressure potential:
Solute potential:
![Page 9: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Problem Cell wall creates a pressure in the cells. Water potential must account for this
pressure. Pressure counteracts the tendency for water to
move into plant cells.
![Page 10: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
![Page 11: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Bulk Flow The movement of water between two
locations due to pressure. Much faster than osmosis. Tension (negative pressure). May cause bulk flow against the diffusion
gradient.
![Page 12: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Tension Is a very important force to "pull" water from
one location to another. Plant Vacuoles
Create Turgor Pressure against the cell wall. Affect water potential by controlling water
concentrations inside cells.
![Page 13: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Tonoplast Name for the vacuole membrane. Has proton pumps. Comment – genetic modification of these
pumps gives plants salt tolerance.
![Page 14: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Proton Pumps
Drives solutes inside the vacuole.
Lowers water potential ()inside the
vacuole. Result
Water moves into the vacuole. Vacuole swells. Turgor pressure increases.
![Page 15: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Aquaporins Water specific facilitated diffusion transport
channels. Help water move more rapidly through lipid
bilayers. Short Distance Transport
1. Transmembrane route2. Symplast route3. Apoplast route
![Page 19: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
1. Transmembrane
Materials cross from cell to cell by crossing each cell's membranes and cell walls.
![Page 20: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
2. Symplast
The continuum of cytoplasm by plasmodesmata bridges between cells.
![Page 21: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
3. Apoplast Extracellular pathway
around and between cell walls.
![Page 22: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Point Movement of materials can take place by all 3
routes.
![Page 23: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
![Page 24: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Long Distance Transport Problem: diffusion is too slow for long
distances. Answer: tension and bulk flow methods.
![Page 25: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Start - Roots Absorb water. Take up minerals.
![Page 26: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Root Hairs Main site of absorption. Comment - older roots
have cork and are not very permeable to water.
![Page 27: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Root Cortex
Very spongy. Apoplast route very
common. Problem
Can't control uptake of materials if the apoplast route is used.
![Page 28: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Solution Endodermis with its
Casparian Strip.
![Page 29: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Casparian Strip Waxy layer of suberin. Creates a barrier between the cortex and the
stele. Forces materials from apoplast into
endodermis symplast. Result
Plant can now control movement of materials into the stele.
![Page 30: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Endodermis
Casparian Strip
![Page 31: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Mycorrhizae
Symbiotic association of fungi with roots of plants.
Help with water and mineral absorption (replaces root hairs in some plants).
May also prevent toxins from entering the plant.
![Page 32: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Mycorrhizae
![Page 33: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Xylem Sap Solution of water and minerals loaded into the
xylem by the endodermis. Endodermis - also prevents back flow of
water and minerals out of the stele.
![Page 34: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Xylem Sap Transport Methods1. Root Pressure2. Transpiration (Ts) Root Pressure
Root cells load minerals into xylem. Water potential () is lowered. Water flows into xylem.
Result Volume of water in xylem increases Xylem sap is pushed up the xylem tissues creating root
pressure.
![Page 35: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Comments Root Pressure: limited way
to move xylem sap. Most apparent at night. Excess water may leave
plant through Guttation.
![Page 36: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Transpiration (Ts) Evaporation of water from aerial plant parts. Major force to pull xylem sap up tall trees.
![Page 37: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
![Page 38: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
TCTM Theory Transpiration Cohesion Tension Mechanism
![Page 39: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
How does TCTM work? Water evaporates from leaves, especially
from the cell walls of the spongy mesophyll. Reason: water potential of the air is usually
much less than that of the cells.
![Page 40: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
![Page 41: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
As water evaporates: Cohesion: water molecules sticking together
by H bonds. Adhesion: water molecules sticking to other
materials (cell walls etc.). Result
The loss of water from the leaves creates “tension” or negative pressure between the air and the water in the plant.
![Page 42: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Tension causes: Xylem sap to move to replace the water lost
from the mesophyll cells.
![Page 43: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Xylem Sap Is “pulled” by the resulting tension all the
way down the plant to the roots and soil.
![Page 44: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Summary
Xylem sap moves along a continual chain of water potential from: air leaf stem roots soil

Comments Tension is a negative pressure which causes a
decreased in the size of xylem cells. Xylem cells would collapse without
secondary cell walls.

Comment The same organ can serve as a source or a
sink depending on the season.
![Page 64: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Result Phloem transport can go in two directions
even in the same vascular bundle.
![Page 65: Chapter 36: Transport in Plants. Plants Leaves roots may be 100m apart](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e675503460f94b62893/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Xylem Transport: In Contrast to Phloem
Usually unidirectional. Endodermis prevents back flow. Dead cells.

Transfer Cells Modified cell with ingrowths of cell wall to
provide more surface area for sugar diffusion.

Result Sugar loaded into phloem.
Water potential () decreases.
Bulk flow is created.

Bulk Flow Movement of water into phloem. Pressure forces phloem sap to move toward
the sink.

Comment
Plants move materials without "moving" parts, unlike animals.
