Q

The stomata contains ______ and allows for ______ ________

A

small pores; gas movement

44

Trichomes in a salty environment help to ….

A

remove excess salt

45
Q

Trichomes in a desert allow for ….

A

increase reflection of light, cools internal tissue

46
Q

trichomes can also be root hairs, in which they

A

increase SA and increase absorption

Q

Meristem

A

When plants grow, cells divide only in
specific areas
• New cells form by mitotic division
• Meristematic cells do not differentiate

48
Q

When stomata open

A

CO2 enters the plant through simple diffusion because there is more CO2 in the atmosphere than inside the plant body

49
Q

What is a proper description of how material moves in the phloem?

A

Material moves from a source of sucrose to a sink for sucrose

50
Q

The rate of transpiration is affected by stomatal movements and:

A

temperature, humidity, and air currents.

51

A

Cohesion

52
Q

Which of the following statements is NOT consistent with the cohesion-tension theory?

Root pressure is essential to the movement of water from roots to leaves.

53
Q

Under drought conditions you would expect stomata to

A

Close

54
Q

Consider two aqueous solutions, A and B. Solution A has a higher solute concentration than solution B. Solution A is placed on one side of a selectively permeable membrane, and solution B is placed on the other side. The solute cannot pass through the membrane. Which of the following best describes this situation?

A

Solution B has a higher osmotic potential

55
Q

Which of the following statements about abscisic acid is FALSE?

A

It causes water to move into guard cells.

56
Q

Figure shows results from an experiment evaluating K+ after exposure to ABA. Which statement is not consistent with the data?
