Okay, good day to all science students. In this video lesson, we are going to discuss the comparison of plant and human transport system. So for objectives, identify similarities and differences between the human digestive system and the plant transport system in terms of structure and function.
Complete a Venn diagram that compares plant and human transport system and appreciate the role of both systems in maintaining life and reflect on the importance of taking care of both plants and man. the human body. Have you ever wondered how do plants eat without a mouth and stomach? Do plants even digest food?
So how is my digestive system like a plant's transport system? If these questions make you curious then you are ready to explore how plants and humans though very different both have special internal systems that help them stay alive. So for review what is the human digestive system?
The digestive system is like your body's food factory. It takes in food, breaks it down, absorbs nutrients, and removes waste. So the key structures and functions of the human digestive system, mouth, starts breaking food with teeth and saliva.
Stomach uses acids to break down food. Small intestine absorbs nutrients into the blood. Large intestine absorbs water and distorts waste.
What is the plant transport system? The plant transport system moves water, nutrients, and food throughout the plant. So the structures of the plant transport system, we have the xylem, moves water and minerals from roots to leaves, or ito yung upward movement. And pluem distributes sugar and nutrients from the leaves throughout the part of the plants during the photosynthesis process. and stomata tiny pores for gas exchange either the carbon dioxide is going inward and outward is the oxygen and water and then guard cells control stomatal openings for breathing and water balance now let's compare we have similarities and differences for similarities both systems transport nutrients both the digestive and plant transport system both have specialized structure to carry out functions.
Both are essential for growth and survival. Both remove waste, humans remove feces, plant transpire excess water and gases. So the difference is in digestive system it breaks down food into nutrients. Unlike in plant transport system it moves nutrients without breaking them down. So digestive uses muscles and enzymes while in plant Uses water pressure or the osmosis capillary action.
Another one, in digestive, remove solids and liquid waste. While in plant transport system, it releases water before in gases. In digestive system, in human, it has many organs.
In plant transport system, it has tubes, the xylem and pluem, the pores, and then the stomata, the four basic parts of the plant transport system. Unlike in digestive system, it involves so many organs. So for activity, complete this Venn diagram.
Fill in the Venn diagram below with similarities and differences based on what you've learned. So yung sa gitna na nagtagpo yung dalawa, dyan yung ilalagay yung mga similarities. Yung differences dito sa digestive system, yung sa kanya lang. Yung sa plant transport system, yung katangian nya lang.
For example, transport nutrients both yan parehas ginagawa ng digestive saka ng plant transport system kaya nasa gitna so ito naman breakdown food into nutrients sa digestive system lang yan sa plant naman moves nutrients without breaking so marami pa pong differences and similarities so puno inyo po itong Venn diagram
