Chapter 44.4, Problem 1CSC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
How the nutrient leaves the leaf, before the leaf falls.
Introduction:
Vascular tissue system forms the transport channel across the complete plant body. Vascular tissue system made up xylem and phloem. Xylem is used for transporting water and minerals from roots to all parts of the plant. Phloem transfer nutrients and food to the different parts of the plant from leaves.

- Which statement about C4 and CAM plants is TRUE? C4 and CAM plants have an additional carbon fixing enzyme C4 and CAM plants have reduced rates of cellular respiration. C4 plants separate initial carbon fixation from the light reactions There are no TRUE answers A pineapple is a C4 plant, agave is a CAM plant C4 plants open their stomata only at nightarrow_forwardIf a C3 plant that normally closes its stomata during hot, dry conditions were triggered to open them instead, the most likely outcome would be that O water leaves the leaf, decreasing the rate of photosynthesis O glucose leaves the leaf, increasing the rate of photosynthesis O CO₂ enters the leaf, decreasing the rate of photosynthesis O O₂ enters the leaf, increasing the rate of photosynthesis more chlorophyll is made, increasing the rate of photosynthesisarrow_forwardA damage in the thylakoid membrane caused the protons to leak into the stroma. Which of the following processes will be most affected? * synthesis of ATP splitting of water absorption of light energy by chlorophyll flow of electrons from PSII to PSIarrow_forward
- As energy passes from blue-absorbing chlorophylls down to red-absorbing chlorophylls, surprisingly, no energy passes from lower energy-absorbing pigments back to higher ones (in other words, the process is irreversible). Why might that be?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is are TRUE? Ca pathway involves a single C02 fixation step. In CAM plants. stomata are open during day time. Chlorophyll pigments absorb maximum light in the green wavelength. Reaction center of PSI is P700arrow_forwardPhotosynthesis of C3 plants in hot conditions is more likely to be: CO2 limited Light limitedarrow_forward
- the rate of photosynthesis in plants decreases due to clogged stomata of the leavesarrow_forwardIn an oak tree leaf 80 feet above the ground a cell of the spongy mesophyll is Photosynthesizing explain how the rest of the tree is meeting the physiological needs of the cell.arrow_forwardATP is produced when protons (H+) flow down the gradient through the H+ channel/ATP synthase in the thylakoid membrane. A researcher discovers a drug that slows down the passage of protons through the H+ channel/ATP synthase. What is expected to happen if this drug is applied to the chloroplasts? The pH in the chloroplast stroma will increase, and less ATP will be produced. The pH in the chloroplast stroma will decrease, and less ATP will be produced. The pH in the chloroplast stroma will increase, and more ATP will be produced. The pH in the chloroplast stroma will decrease, and more ATP will be produced.arrow_forward
- Which of the following scenarios happens during the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis? Oxygen gas is produced in the thylakoid lumen by the oxidation of water by photosystem I. Ferrodoxin and NADP+ reductase participates in the reduction of NADP+ to NADPH. Carbon dioxide enters the plants via stomata. Rubisco attaches three molecules of ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) to one molecule of carbon dioxide.arrow_forwardHow do C4 plants minimize photorespiration? Multiple Choice Stomata are only opened at night, storing carbon dioxide in the stroma. During the day, the carbon dioxide is released for photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide is fixed twice in different cells. The Calvin cycle occurs in the bundle sheath cells where oxygen concentrations are lower. Carbon dioxide is fixed twice in different cells so that carbon dioxide does not come into contact with rubisco. Stomata are only opened at night, storing oxygen in malate. During the day, the oxygen is released for photosynthesis. Stomata are only opened at night, storing carbon dioxide in malate. During the day, the carbon dioxide is released for photosynthesis.arrow_forwardThe image below shows a plant that has one stem wrapped in plastic. You can see the condensation of water on the inside of the plastic bag. Which of the following best explain the processes required for the bag to accrue 1 point condensation? Water from the root to the leaves via the xylem and transpiration from the stomata O Photosynthesis from the leaves via the stomata. O Cellular respiration through the stems. Cellular division within the dermal tissue.arrow_forward
