The pressure-flow model explains phloem translocation as a flow of solution (bulk flow) driven by an osmotically generated pressure gradient between source and sink.
a) Phloem translocation, both active and passive mechanisms were considered. All theories, both active and passive, assume an energy requirement in both sources and sinks.
b) In sources, energy is necessary to move photosynthate from producing cells into the sieve elements. This movement of photosynthate is called phloem loading.
c) In sinks, energy is essential for some aspects of movement from sieve elements to sink cells, which store or metabolize the sugar. This movement of photosynthate from sieve elements to sink cells is called phloem unloading.
d) The Active mechanisms of phloem transport further assume that energy is required in the sieve elements of the path between sources and sinks simply to maintain structures.
From the given statements find out the correct for pressure-flow model.

An industrial waste-water stream is fed to a stirred-tank
reactor continuously and the cells are recycled back to the reactor from the
bottom of the sedimentation tank placed after the reactor. The following are
given for the system: F = 100 l/h; S0 = 5000 mg/l; mm = 0.25 h-1 ; Ks = 200
mg/l; α (recycle ratio) = 0.6; C (cell
concentration factor) = 2; Y M X/S = 0.4. The effluent
concentration is desired to be 100 mg/l. Determine the cell concentration in the
reactor and in the recycle stream.
