![Blurred answer](/static/compass_v2/solution-images/blurred-answer.jpg)
- Describe each of the following types of specialized shoots. Be certain to account for modifications of the leaves, internodes, and orientation of growth: stolon, rhizome, tuber, bulb, corm, and tendril. Each provides a plant with a selective advantage. What is the adaptive value of each type of specialized shoot?Why can a monocot like an iris branch and increase its number of leaves? Is the fact that the shoot is a rhizome with adventitious roots important? Is water transported from one end of the shoot to the other?Which of the following is NOT a function of the stem in a plant? Which of the following is NOT a function of the stem in a plant? A) absorb water B) store nutrients C) produce new plant cells D) support flowers and leaves
- Is this part of the shoot system or the root system? Explain its function and the scientific terms used to describe it.What is an adventitious root? In a monocot rhizome such as that of irises and bamboo, are adventitious roots common or rare? If a bamboo rhizome grows 100 feet underground and then sends up an aerial branch, where does that branch get its water—from the roots 100 feet away or from adventitious roots right at its baseWhat are three functions of the shoot apical meristem?
- What are the types of plant geotropisms? Why do the stem and the roots present opposite geotropisms?What is the difference between the apical meristem and lateral meristem? shoot apical meristems lateral meristems root apical meristems Apical meristemic tissue is responsible for primary growth at the root and shoot tips. Lateral meristemic tissue is responsible for secondary growth with an increase in diameter of the stem. Apical meristemic tissue is responsible for secondary growth with an increase in diameter of the stem. Lateral meristemic tissue is responsible for primary growth at the root and shoot tips. Lateral meristematic tissue is only found in annual plants. O Apical meristemic tissue is only found in woody plants.Which of the following statements is false? a. Auxin and gibberellin promote stem elongation b. Cytokinin promotes cell division in shoot tips c. Abscisic acid promotes water loss and dormancy d. Ethylene promotes fruit ripening and abscission.
- Observe the following photos of the shoot of a monocot (left) and an eudicot (right). How are these shoots similar? How do they differ in terms of the appearance (morphology) of the leaves and the way the leaves are attached?In a germinating seed, the downward growth of roots and upward growth of stems are the plant’s responses to gravity. Which statement best describes this phenomenon? * downward growth of roots – positive response to gravity ; upward growth of stems – negative response to gravity downward growth of roots – negative response to gravity ; upward growth of stems – positive response to gravity downward growth of roots – positive response to gravity ; upward growth of stems – positive response to gravity No answer downward growth of roots – negative response to gravity; upward growth of stems – negative response to gravityIn a cross-section of a tree, where are the oldest growth rings—in the outer region or nearer the pith? Where is the oldest secondary phloem—near the outside of the tree or near the cambium?
