Chapter 35, Problem 1A
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Plants are mainly multicellular, predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes of kingdom Plantae. Plant growth is an outcome of cell, new cell enlargement and their differentiation into different tissue types. These growth processes are accompanied by an increase in the dry weight of growing parts and a permanent change in the size.

Oscar and Lucinda meet in a tropical rain forest and fall in love, and he carves their initials into the bark of a tree. They never do get together, though. Ten years later, still heartbroken, Oscar searches for the tree. Given what you know about primary and secondary growth, will he find the carved initials higher relative to ground level? If he goes berserk and chops down the tree, what kinds of growth rings will he see?
3) When she was a young child, Mélanie had a favourite swing hanging from the lower branch of
a tree. Over time, Mélanie grew older, and eventually moved out of her parent's house. Now,
when Mélanie returns to visit her parents, the tree is much larger than it was when Mélanie was
just a young child, but her swing is still hangingg at approximately the same height. Using
concepts and terms related to plant growth seen in class, briefly explain how this phenomenon is
possible.

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.Unit 5 DQ Question: Explain the processes that may cause the leaves to drop and fall.

Youworry that they might get blown over by the wind, so you decide to lend them extrasupport with a wire frame. You accidently break the growing tip off the top of one ofthe plants. After a few weeks, you notice that instead of growing tall like the otherplants, the plant with the broken tip has grown denser with thicker lateral shootsthan the other plants. Question: Explain what signal transduction pathway has been impacted by the removalof the growing tip of this tomato plant and contrast this with what ishappening in the normal growing tomato plants (10 facts).arrow_forward

They are found in the zone of cell elongation and help the root to fix nitrogen. b.They are found in the root cap and help the root sense gravity. c.They are found in the zone of cell division of the root and help anchor the plant in the soil. d.They are found in the root apical meristem and help the root to absorb water. e.They are found in the zone of cell differentiation in the root.

They hypothesized that caffeine-a stimulant-would increase the rate of root growth. They immersed the bottom of a group of onion bulbs in a solution of 1 mM caffeine and that of the other group of onion bulbs in distilled water. Then they measured the root length of both treated or experimental and untreated or control groups of onion bulbs. This was repeated for a total of five trials. The results from their experiments are illus- trated in the table below.
