- WHAT IF? Suppose an Arabidopsis mutant lackingfunctional aquaporin proteins has a root mass threetimes greater than that of wild-type plants. Suggest anexplanation.arrow_forwardImagine an experiment where I am testing the effects of salt on the growth of corn plants. I set up several treatments where some plants get no salt, some are watered with a 0.05% salt solution, and some are watered with a 0.1% salt solution. I use the same species of plants, the same soil, and the same total amounts of water in my experiment. Every other day I record the height of the plants in cm. What is the independent variable in my experiment? What is the dependent variable in my experiment? What is the control treatment in my experiment? What are three controlled variables in my experiment?arrow_forwardPart F - How to determine transpiration rates by the whole plant method Which of the following best explains why the plant in front of the fan lost more mass than the control plant in normal room conditions? The leaves of the plant in front of the fan had the highest initial water potential and therefore lost the most water. The control plant had lower initial water potential in the root area and therefore lost less water. The control plant had a lower initial mass and so lost water at a decreased rate. The fan rapidly moves water molecules away from the leaf surface, lowering the water potential.arrow_forward
