A) The transport of water in vascular plants (bulk flow) is dependent on three contributing factors. What are they and in briefly describing their contributions, detail how water in the ground is able to be taken up by, and reach the leaves at the top of a tree. [4.5pts]. Also, rank them by their contribution to bulk flow [1 = most, 3 = least important) [1pt]. B) When it comes to plant circulation, the transpirational pull of water is crucially assisted by the chemical properties of water. Thinking about the mechanisms and movement of water vapor within the leaf, decide whether each of the following would ‘increase’, ‘decrease’, or have ‘no effect’, on the ‘pull’/transport of water [0.5pts each, 2.5pts total]. Thick film of water in surface of mesophyll cells Higher relative humidity in air around leaf Lower rate of water evaporation from surface of mesophyll cells Larger air space in leaf interior Larger diameter of stomatal pores
