Transport minerals to supply to plant cells
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Transportation of sugars from source to sink is a physiological process and is not related to transpiration.
Detailed explanation-2: -For the process of photosynthesis, raw materials should be transported to the leaves. For transport in plants, they need a transport system to move food, water, and minerals around because for them no heart, no blood, and since these plants do not have a circulatory system, transportation makes up for it.
Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer-Excretion of Minerals is not the function of transpiration.
Detailed explanation-4: -Photosynthesis is the process of synthesis of food by plants using carbon dioxide and water in presence of sunlight and chlorophyll. Oxygen (O2) is released during the process as a waste product. Hence, oxygen is not essential for the process of photosynthesis.
