Question
Chapter 38, Problem 3S
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The way through which the sites receiving the signal may vary during the course of growth when the systemin get transported through the phloem of the tomato plant.
Introduction:
The wound response in plants occurs when the leaf gets injured or chewed by the invader. During such responses, there is a rapid synthesis and release of proteinase inhibitor. Such type of inhibitors is only synthesized in conditions when the plant is wounded.

Can you answer this question, all of the parts please.
A. Please explain the phenomenon of apical dominance in plant growth.
B. Which plant hormone(s) involved in apical dominance?
Cotton plants wilt within a few hours of flooding of their roots. The flooding leads to low-oxygen conditions, increases in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration, and decreases in cytosolic pH. Suggest a hypothesis to explain how flooding leads to wilting.
why some starch synthesis mutants have a reduced gravitropic response in the root and the shoot. explain
