Question
Growers often wrap potted plants in plastic sleeves prior to shipping. If plants remain in these sleeves too long, their leaves curl and fall off. Imagine you are working at a garden center and have been asked to make a presentation to a local garden club. how can growers avoid problems for example when it comes to plastic sleeves?

- This is a picture of the initial experiments to figure out how auxin and phototropism worked. How do you expect the plant will grow in each scenario and why?arrow_forwardPoison is (Toxicodendron radicans) occurs as a weak free-standing shrub (that can reach 0.5m in height). as a trailing vine (that trails along the surface of the ground). and as a climbing vine (that climbs up trees and other vertical surfaces) When the a poison-ivs plant is growing as a weak shrub. Its stems are smooth, but when it begins to grow up the trunk of a tree. Its stem becomes covered with many slender adventitious roots that firmly attach it to the tree. Propose one possible proximate (immediate. physiological. ecological) factor and one possible ultimate (evolutionary ) factor for the production of adventitious roots br poison-ivy plantsarrow_forwardMany different treatments were possible in the phototropism experiment. Based on your understanding of phototropism, provide predictions about the direction of plant growth for the following two scenarios, and explain your reasoning. 1. The tip of the coleoptile is removed and lanolin with auxin is applied to the dark side of the stem. 2. The tip of the coleoptile is removed and lanolin with auxin is applied to the light side of the stem.arrow_forward
- Select the FALSE answer regarding refined grain foods (select only 1). the refining process only keeps the seed endosperm (the white bread that you eat is made from the endosperm) products made from refined grains have a longer shelf life, which is one reason they are cheap and readily available refined grain products are typically enriched to add back vitamins and minerals lost during the process white bread and white rice are high in carbohydrates and fiber refined grains are made from monocot seeds, which use up the endosperm during germinationarrow_forwardJenny wanted to plant sunflowers, but wasn't sure of the best place to plant them on her property - so she decided to investigate! Jenny planted 6 sunflowers where they would get sun all day, 6 where they would get some sun and some shade, and 6 where they would be in total shade all day. Jenny watered all of the sunflowers at the same time of day with the same amount of water. After 3 months Jenny measured how tall the sunflowers in each location were. What is the hypothesis that Jenny was testing? Choose all that apply. Question options: A Amount of water affects plant growth B Plant growth is affected by light exposure C Plant growth is affected by the time of day of watering D Amount of light affects plant growth because light is required for photosynthesisarrow_forwardI’m not sure how to answer this question could please help?arrow_forward
