What is the eighth concept used for studying plants? It is difficult to avoid using the phrase “in order to” when referring to plants. Change the following sentences to be more accurate. The first one is done as an example:a. Plants have leaves in order to photosynthesize. “Plants have leaves that photosynthesize,” or “photosynthesis in plants occurs in leaves.”b. Plants have flowers in order to reproduce.c. Plant cells divide in order to make more cells.d. Wind-pollinated plants have their flowers located high above the ground in order to be exposed to stronger wind.e. Some plants have red flowers to attract hummingbirds.f. After I eat dinner, my stomach secretes acid in order to help digest the food.

horticulturist wants to grow large, healthy plants by maximizing the rate of photosynthesis. Which of the following actions would be most likely to give the results she wants? *
Read the scenario. A botanist (a biologist who specializes in plant biology) is researching the enormous biodiversity of plants found in the tropical rainforest. As she hikes through the forest, she finds a section of forest that contains several types of flowering plants that are unidentified, meaning they have yet to be named and classified into a scientific group. She observes several different examples of this plant over several acres of forest and notes that the leaves and stems of these plants look very similar. The only part of the plant that varies is the flower. She notes that on the southern side of the forest, the flowers are bright pink and have 18 petals per flower. On the northern side of the forest, the flowers are white and have nine petals per flower. The botanist wants to determine if the plants she has discovered are of the same species or different species. How would she be able to determine this? a If they are two different species, she could grow them…
As it relates to Photosynthesis: What would happen if all the plants died?
A classmate says that if one part of a plant is found to contain cells, then that means that every part of that plant will have the same type of cells. How should you respond to his claim? (a) He is correct. Every part of the plant will have the same type of cells (b)He is somewhat correct. ONly certain part of a plant contain cells, but those that do will have identical cells (c) He is incorrect. Only certain parts of a plant contain cells (d) He is somewhat correct. Every part of the plant will contain cells, but there may be different types of cells in a single plant
What will likely happen to your plant if it will be placed in a dark area with no light? A.The plant will not be able to absorb sunlight B.No chlorophyll will be formed and the leaves will become whitish or pale yellow C.Plants will evolve to adapt in an environment with no light D.BothA and B E. BothA and C
Photosynthesis generally takes place in which parts of the plant? A. Leaf and other chloroplast bearing parts B. stem and leaf C. Roots and chloroplast bearing parts D. Bark and leaf
Green colors in plants are produced by the presence of: Pigments called chlorophylls a and b located in the chloroplasts. Pigments called chlorophylls a and b located in cell vacuoles. Pigments called carotenoids located in the chloroplasts. Pigments called anthocyanins located in cell vacuoles.
In the lab experiment of cell structure and function, hypothesize why parts of a plant, such as leaves, are green, but other parts such as the roots, are not. Use scientific reasoning to support your hypothesis.
PLEASE ANSWER 1, 2 AND 3 QUESTIONS (brief explanation only). 1. Biologist hypothesize that the first land plants had a low, sprawling growth habitat. Which of the following is part of the logic behind that theory? A. The low sprawling growth gave them greater surface area exposed to light for photosynthesis. B. This was prior to plants’ development of adaptations to defend themselves from predators, so by growing low they were out of sight of most predators. C. The wind speed was much greater at that time that it is now, and pushed the plants over. D. To obtain water, they had to keep their tissues in direct contact with moist soil. 2. What adaptation allowed the seed plants to lose their dependence on water to accomplish fertilization? A. gametophytes B. pollen grains C. sporophytes D. seed 3. Xylem and phloem are found in? A. bryophytes, ferns, conifers, and angiosperms. B. only the gametophytes of vascular plants. C. the vascular plants, which include ferns, conifers and…
. Plants can harvest the energy from light, but also rely on light as a stimulus to control other processes. Briefly describe one example of how plants use light for something other than photosynthesis, including the processes, structures and/or molecules involved.
