There is a trade-off between photosynthesis and transpiration in leaves because (a) numerous stomatal pores provide both gas exchange for photosynthesis and openings through which water vapor escapes (b) a waxy layer, the cuticle, reduces water loss (c) blue light triggers an influx of potassium ions (K+) into the guard cells (d) leaves of deciduous plants abscise as winter approaches in temperate climates (e) stomata are closed at night, although water continues to move into the roots by osmosis
Leaves carry out many roles in a plant’s life. Give examples of leaves that do the following:a. Provide protectionb. Provide supportc. Provide storaged. Obtain nitrogenAre leaf structures and metabolisms that are selectively advantageous for one of these functions also advantageous for all of them?
Create a conceptual framework (either handwritten or digital) of the flow ofevents in each of the plant processes on Plant Growth and Photosynthesis. The concept map should briefly and completely discuss the organized stepwise flow of events and include linking terms to connect the flow. Make a maximum of 3 sentences narrative of how these two plant processes are integrated into the plant body for the plant to survive or adapt.
clomate change due to th erapidly increasing levels of greenhouse gases (particularly CO2) in our atmosphere is a serious current global concern. How might stomatal density serve as a bioindicator for monitoring the response of plants to changes ingreehouse gas concentrations in the future?
As with plant adaptations againstherbivores, other biological processes can involve multiple levelsof biological organization (Figure 1.3). Discuss examples ofspecialized photosynthetic adaptations involving modificationsat the molecular (Concept 10.4), tissue (Concept 36.4), andorganismal (Concept 36.1) levels.
Two major processes are involved in the dissipation of heat from plant leaves: convection of heat, and(a) Photosynthesis (b) Stomatal Conductance (c) Mineral Nutrition (d) Transpiration (e) Growth
. SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY Cotton plants wilt within a few hoursof flooding of their roots. The flooding leads to low-oxygenconditions, increases in cytosolic Ca2+concentration, anddecreases in cytosolic pH. Suggest a hypothesis to explain howflooding leads to wilting.
