Similar questions

Ecologists often attempt to introduce new plants to restore degraded land. In an arid climate, scientists recommend introducing plants with arbuscular mycorrhizae. How would the mycorrhizae increase the plants’ survival compared to plants without mycorrhizae?
Which of the following is an adaptation thatenhances the uptake of water and minerals byroots?(A) mycorrhizae(B) pumping through plasmodesmata(C) active uptake by vessel elements(D) rhythmic contractions by cells in the root cortex
Mycorrhizal fungi live in the soil and interact with the roots of plants. Essentail nutrients (e.g. nitrogenous compounds) are taken from the soil by the fungi and transferred to the plant roots. The fungi extract carbohydrates from the plant roots. What type of interaction is occurring?
Biologists have discovered that many mycorrhizal fungi are sensitive to a low pH. What human-caused environmental problem may prove catastrophic for these fungi? How may this problem affect their plant partners? What measures could we take to decrease the problem?
Which of the following statements is true regarding mycorrhizal relationships? a this relationship is a type of parasitism b bacteria partner with plant roots c fungi provide energy (ATP) for their partner d all glomeromycota are mycorrhizal fungi e no statements above are true
The greatest difference in health between two groups of plantsof the same species, one group with mycorrhizae and one groupwithout mycorrhizae, would be in an environment(A) where nitrogen-fixing bacteria are abundant.(B) that has soil with poor drainage.(C) that has hot summers and cold winters.(D) in which the soil is relatively deficient in mineral nutrients
What is the symbiotic relationship between fungi and plant roots in which fungal hyphae penetrate the cell walls of the plants root cells? A-extomcorrhixa B vascular mycorrhizae C fungal rhizoids D arbuscar mycorrhiza E lichens
Which of the following statements is true regarding mycorrhizal relationships? this relationship is a type of parasitism bacteria partner with plant roots fungi provide energy (ATP) for their partner all glomeromycota are mycorrhizal fungi no statements above are true
There are some plants such as Indian pipe and orchids that do not have chlorophyll, yet they are connected to the mycorrhizal web. What would you suspect their relationship to be?
Many fungal pathogens get food by causing plantcells to become leaky, releasing nutrients into theintercellular spaces. Would it benefit the fungus to killthe host plant in a way that results in all the nutrientsleaking out?
What are mycorrhizae? and what are the different types of mycorrhizae, mention two examples of fungi that form mycorrhizae with economically important plants.
How do mycorrhizae improve the growth of trees?In what way(s) are the root nodule and mycorrhizalsymbioses similar? In what major way do they differ?
