¶ It transports white blood cells to and from the lymph nodes into the bones
b) i). ¶ oxygen
¶ excretory products, such as carbon dioxide, urea, etc

ii) Plants absorb water from the soil through their root hairs which are surrounded by soil water in
the soil. The soil water is a more dilute solution than the soil sap inside the root hair hence
water molecules move from soil water into the root hairs by the process of osmosis. Mineral
salts are absorbed through the cell membrane often from a zone of their low concentration in
the soil to a zone of their higher concentration in the cells of the roots through active
absorption.
c) i). Placentation is the arrangement of ovules within an ovary. The part of the ovary where the
ovules are attached is called a placenta.
ii). ¶ Marginal placentation
¶ Parietal placentation
¶ Axile placentation
¶ Free central placentation
