A fungicide dissolved in water was applied to the soil in which a rose plant was growing. It later appeared in the leaves. How did the fungicide reach the leaves?​

Respuesta :

The correct answer is transpiration pull of xylem.

  1. 1. The fungicides are the
  2. chemicals
  3. which are used to removes fungus which on the plants and also stops the growth of fungus present on plants.
  4. 2. The fungicides are dissolved in water to make the
  5. dilute solution
  6. so that when it sprayed on the leaves, it easily absorbed by the soil.
  7. 3. The plants have
  8. special mechanism
  9. which helps in absorption of all the
  10. minerals
  11. that are present in the soil.
  12. 4. The
  13. xylem
  14. absorb mineral and water in the soil and phloem absorbs nutrients from the soil. Xylem
  15. pull ups
  16. the solution
  17. against the gravity
  18. and moves this solution to the surface of the leaves is called
  19. transpiration pull.
  20. 5. There are
  21. 3 mechanism
  22. that involved in the movement of fungicide are
  23. Root pressure
  24. • Cohesive force
  25. • Capillary action
  26. 6. All these
  27. forces
  28. are worked to pull up the solution upward to the leaves.
  29. Thus the xylem is a specialized mechanism present in the plants to pull up the solution upward against the gravity.
