Q

During hot days, the guard cells close the stomatal pore. The main purpose of this is because:

A. High temp. Makes the stomata’s function irrelevant to the plant.
B. High temp. Makes CO2 enter the plant in other openings other than the stomata.
C. High temp. Makes H2O easier to leave the plants, so guard cells mame sure that the stomata is closed to prevent further water loss.
D. High temp. Drives H2O into the stomata, so guard cells make sure that the stomata is closed to prevent excessive water entry.

A

C.

D. Vascular tissue

A

C. Ground tissue

18
Q

Also known as phytohormones

A

19
Q

Occurs when the pollen attaches to the stigma, elongates down the style, and releases two spermatozoa into embryo sac, which fertilizes the egg and polar nuclei

A

20
Q

A. Gibberelline
B. Ethylene
