1)     Xylem sap is fluid that circulates around a plant that contains inorganic nutrients and water. Imagine you are comparing the nutrient content of xylem sap from two plants: one with mycorrhizae and one without mycorrhizae. How would you expect the nutrient content of these two xylem samples to differ?

a.      Xylem sap from the mycorrhizae sample will have less phosphorus.

b.      Xylem sap from the non-mycorrhizae sample will have more phosphorus.

c.      The amount of phosphorus will be the same in both samples.

d.      Xylem sap from the mycorrhizae sample will have more phosphorus.
