PSS- Sec-F-Transport

Non-reducing sugars are preferred for phloem transport because they are:

Pick B: Less reactive. Thinking through PSS- Sec-F-Transport step by step rules out the lookalikes and leaves Less reactive. Skip these: A) Highly reactive; C) Less soluble; D) Energy rich. For hormones and genes, match the molecule or gene to its real role, not a neighboring pathway.

PSS- Sec-F-Transport

Velocity of polar auxin transport compared to phloem transport is:

Slower (C) is correct here. This is core PSS- Sec-F-Transport: once you know the definition or pathway step, Slower is the clear fit. The wrong ones are A) Faster; B) Equal; D) Variable. If the topic is about gradients or potentials, water/solutes move from higher to lower of the relevant quantity.
