Question
Chapter 28.1, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The role of central vacuoles and cellulose cell wall in plant growth.
Introduction:
A plant cell contains a cell wall, chloroplast and one large central vacuole. Central vacuole store water, sugars, ions amino acids and wastes in a cell. Central vacuole helps the plant cells to from mechanical damage.

- Discuss Concepts Concerns about global climate change and the greenhouse effect center on rising levels of greenhouse gases, including atmospheric carbon dioxide. Plants use CO for 2 photosynthesis, and laboratory studies suggest that increasedCO2 levels could cause a rise in photosynthetic activity. However, as one environmentalist noted, What plants do in environmental chambers may not happen in nature, where there are many other interacting variables. Strictly from the standpoint of physiological effects, what are some possible ramifications of a rapid doubling of atmospheric CO2 on plants in temperate environments? In arid environments?arrow_forwardYou place a flaccid plant cell (Ψ = -0.7 MPa) into an environment (beaker) of sucrose solution (Ψ = -0.9 MPa).

Describe the relationship between water potential with solute potential and pressure potential in plants. Plant cell P has a solute potential of-350 kPa and a pressure potential of 200 kPa. Besides, is plant cell Q which has a solute potential of -500 kPa and a pressure potential of 200 kPa. Determine the direction of net movement of water between the two cells by using the water potential equation. Explain the characteristics of water that make it such an important medium for life.
