Students have asked these similar questions
A tobacco plant has successfully fended off plant pathogen via hypersensitive response (HR).
(i)
What would you be able to observe on the plant and explain the processes that happened
at cellular level?
What are the benefits for the tobacco plant that has developed systemic acquired
resistance (SAR) in comparison to HR?
(ii)
(ii)
Name the chemical compounds responsible in triggering SAR and how would this
signal be transmitted?
all the option are the same as shown
Plant cells communicate in a variety of ways to elicit cellular responses. In the figure below the plant is responding the presence of light with the release of auxin. Auxin was first discovered for its ability to promote growth in plants. It is a plant hormone that inhibits the lengthening and stimulate the formation of lateral roots and root hairs.
a) Describe the plant’s response to the presence of light. (refer to picture)
