Document Summary

Concept 36. 1 adaptations for acquiring resources were key stepson the evolution of vascular plants: figure 36. 2. Concept 36. 2: different mechanisms transept substances over short or long distances: transport in vascular plants occur on three scales. Transport of water and solutes by individual cells. Short-distance transport of substances from cell to cell at the level of tissues and organs. Long-distance transport (bulk flow) within xylem and phloem. Selective permeability of membranes: plasma membrane controls movement of solutes into and out of the cell. Passive transport: movement across membrane down concentration gradient; doesn"t require energy. Active transport: pumping solutes across membrane against concentration gradient; requires energy. Transport proteins: integral membrane proteins that carry out transport: proton pumps, solute transport in plant cells. Create a h+ gradient that is a form of potential energy. Helps reduce a voltage known as a membrane potential. Transport of many solutes driven by proton gradients. Cotransport: transport proteins couple passage of one solute with passage of another.
