A cut in the stem

This appears in a question in your topical worksheet on Plant Transport System.

The same stalk of celery used in Day 1, slightly slit and then torn apart to reveal the water-carrying tubes.

Taken in class right after the stalk was torn apart.

Taken in the staffroom after class.
