Phloem Cross Sectional Anatomy — a labelled NEET Biology diagram with a definitions lexicon.
Phloem Cross-Sectional Anatomy Labelled parts: Phloem, Sieve Tube Element, Sieve Plates, Companion Cell, Plasmodesmata, Phloem parenchyma, Phloem Fiber, Sucrose Flow, Perforated End Wall. Vascular tissue responsible for the transport of sugars and metabolic products downward from the leaves. A key label in the BioAtlas entry 'Phloem Cross-Sectional Anatomy'. Review and refine this definition before adding it to the live lexicon. Perforated end walls separating sieve tube elements, allowing flow of sap. A key label in the BioAtlas entry 'Phloem Cross-Sectional Anatomy'. Review and refine this definition before adding it to the live lexicon. Microscopic channels that traverse the cell walls of plant cells, enabling transport and communication between them. FYI: In C4 plants, C4 acids move from mesophyll to bundle sheath cells via plasmodesmata. Living parenchyma cells located in the phloem tissue. Their main role is the storage of food materials, particularly starch, and lateral transport of substances. FYI: Phloem parenchyma cells are crucial for the storage and lateral movement of sugars (sucrose) within the phloem. A key label in the BioAtlas entry 'Phloem Cross-Sectional Anatomy'.
