Prior knowledge: GCSE Additional Science Xylem and phloem tissue transports substances around a plant. Learning objective Time taken Learning Outcome Learning activity with opportunity to develop skills Assessment opportunities Resources as the tissue that transports water in the stem and leaves of plants. The cohesion-tension theory of transport in the xylem. 0.2 Explain the role of the xylem in plants. Explain how water transport in the xylem is linked to transpiration in the leaves. Explain the cohesion-tension theory of water transport. Explain the factors affect transpiration. Learning activities: questioning on leaf structure (3.3.2) and GCSE knowledge on xylem teacher led explanation of movement of against gravity due to theory (using animation) interpret results from potometer experiments exam questions. Skills developed by learning activities: AO1 – development of understanding of theory and water movement Past exam paper material: Jan 2013 – Q5 BIOL2 June 2013 – Q8a BIOL2 Jan 2011 – Q8b BIOL2 Jan 2012 – Q8b June 2010 – Q4 Rich question: How are big trees, like giant redwood trees, able to move water against gravity to the leaves at the top?
