97. The living portion of the pathway through which water travels through a root is called the symplastic
pathway.

98. Root epidermal cells can passively transport ions inward from the soil because they cannot follow a
concentration gradient.
99. The loss of water vapor from aerial plant parts is called evapotranspiration.
100. The root-to-shoot water in a plant is called the transpiration stream.
101. Rising air temperatures at the leaf surface can increase evaporation, although wilting can also cool a
leaf somewhat.
102. In plants, the long-distance transport of substances is called transpiration.
103. When an ant tends an aphid, it would be benefiting the aphid by removing honeydew from the aphids
