The process of carrying food from the leaves to other parts of a plant is called:
(a) transpiration (b) transportation (c) translocation (d) transformation

Academic Biology NCERT Class 10

State the term used for the transport of food from leaves to other parts of plant.
Which one of the following helps in the upward movement of water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves through the stem?(a) transportation (b) translocation (c) tropic movement (d) transpiration
Describe the process of respiration in the following parts of a plant :(a) Root (b) Stem (c) Leaves
Water and dissolved minerals get into the root hair of a plant by a process called A and enter the conducting tissue B. The process C helps the water and dissolved minerals to move up through the tissue B in roots and stem, and reach the leaves of a plant . In the leaves food is made by a process D. This food is then transported to all the parts of a plant through tissue E. The process of distributing food made in the leaves to all the parts of the plant is called F.(a)What are (i) A (ii) B (iii) C (iv) D (v) E, and (vi) F ?(b) Which tissue is made up of living cells : B or E ?(c) Which tissue, B or E, contains sieve tubes ?(d) Which tissue, B or E, contains tracheids ?
The process of breakdown of food particles into small pieces is called (a) Mastication(b) Digestion(c) Peristalsis(d) Diffusion
(a) What is transpiration?(b) What do you mean by 'translocation' with respect to transport in plants? (c) Which plant tissue is involved in translocation: xylem or phloem?
The process through which undigested food is expelled out of the body is called(a) digestion(b) absorption(c) assimilation(d) egestion
Transpiration is a process in which plants(a) receive water from soil(b) absorb water vapour from air(c) prepare food from water(d) release water vapour.
The leaves of a plant first prepare food A by photosynthesis. Food A then gets converted into food B. What are A and B?
The plant hormone which triggers the fall of mature leaves and fruits from the plant body is:(a) auxin (b) gibberellin (c) abscisic acid (d) cytokinin
The process of digestion of food is humans begins in:(a) stomach (b) food pipe (c) mouth (d) small intestine
The bending of the shoot of a plant in response to light is called: (a) geotropism (b) phototropism (c) thigmotropism (d) photonasty
The organisms A, B and C can obtain their food in three different ways. Organism A derives its food from the body of another living organism which is called its D, without killing it. The organism B takes in the solid food by the process of ingestion, digests a part of this food and throws out undigested food in the process called E. The organism C obtains its food from dead and decaying plants.(a) What is the mode of nutrition of (i) organism A (ii) organism B, and (iii) organism C?(b) What is the organism like D called?(c) Name the process E.(d) Give one example each of organisms like (i) A (ii) B, and (iii) C.(e) What is the general name of three modes of nutrition exhibited by organisms A, B and C?
DIRECTIONS: Read the passage (s) given below and answer the questions that follow. Passage - 3 The evaporation of water from leaves generates a suction pull which can pull water to great heights in tall trees. What is the name of the process described in the passage?(a) Evaporation(b) Suction(c) Transpiration(d) Transportation
What is so special about the leaves, that they can synthesize food, but other part of the plant cannot?
