Upgraded B001 Ntbi1002 Aphid Stylet Feeding Phloem — a labelled NEET Biology diagram with a definitions lexicon.
Diagram illustrating the aphid stylet feeding into phloem tissue. Labelled parts: Phloem, Style, Evidence. Vascular tissue responsible for the transport of sugars and metabolic products downward from the leaves. The style is the stalk connecting the stigma to the ovary. It serves as a pathway for pollen grains to reach the ovules. FYI: The style is often the part that grows longer to facilitate the movement of pollen towards the stigma. Evidence is a labeled feature or concept in this upgraded BioAtlas image: A detailed, labeled drawing of an aphid's stylets inserted into a plant vascular bundle, showing the direct connection to sieve tubes.
