Question

Review the movement of sugars through a plant (35.4). Then place the following steps in order as they move from source to sink.

Sugar (sucrose) is actively pumped from the source to the companion cells and into the sieve elements (phloem)

An area of high pressure is created in the sieve elements by the addition of water and sugar

Water passively moves into the xylem due to a change in water potential

Phloem sap moves from area of high pressure to low pressure

Sugar is actively or passively transported into the sink lowering the pressure and raising the water potential

Water passively moves from xylem into the sieve elements (phloem) due to a change in water potential
