Answer 1

Transportation:

1. Transportation is the process that involves the movement of water and necessary nutrients to all parts of the plant for its survival.
2. Active transport is a type of transportation used by plants to move particles against a concentration gradient by utilizing stored energy.
3. It happens in the root cells of a plant by absorbing water and minerals.
4. The movement of a solute from one side of the cell membrane to the other, from a region of high electrochemical potential to a region of the lower electrochemical potential side, is referred to as passive transport.
5. The following are some examples of modes of transportation:
   1. Active transport: Human intestinal glucose uptake
   2. Passive transport: Diffusion
