Green mangoes were freshly harvested from tree and buried in a jar of uncooked rice toaccelerate ripening process. During storage, the fruit colour has changed to yellow.Explain the principles behind this ripening process by relating to the fruit tvne andidentify the phytohormone responsible for this ripening process.(i)Suggest another simple method to expedite the ripening process with another fruit ofthe same type. Marks will be awarded for the correct type of materials (fruit), methodand experimental set up (temperature and space).(ii)

Ripening is a process in fruits that causes them to become more palatable soft and rich in…

A team of researchers investigated the effects of phosphorous availability and light intensity on an angiosperm species. Seeds of the angiosperm were divided into four equal groups. Groups 1 and 2 were exposed to 200 μmol, and Groups 3 and 4 were exposed to 500 μmol. Groups 2 and 4 also received a phosphorous (P) solution. After 20 days, all plants were weighed, and the average dry weight of each group was calculated. The results are in the table below. Group 1(200 μmol, no P) Group 2(200 μmol, + P) Group 3 (500 μmol, no P) Group 4 (500 μmol + P) Average Dry weight (g) 0.8 1.1 1.5 6.2 Describe the effects of light and phosphorous on the growth of the plants in this study. Explain how the metabolic processes associated with the plant kingdom likely influenced these results.
A group of students have carried out an experiment to investigate the relationship between the amount of growth hormone BAP in the culture medium and the growth of shoot.They have supplemented the medium with 4 different concentration of growth hormone which is (1 mg/L ,2 mg/L BAP,3 mg/L 4 mg/L) of BAP.According to the result after eight weeks, BAP at 2 mg/L had given better response with respect to shoot induction, shoot multiplication, length of shoot, and number of leaves per explants when compare with other amount of BAP. Discuss why?
Name the TWO (2) components for phytochrome and where are they being synthesised? *
The drooping, bell-like flower Aquilegia canadensis is adapted for cross-pollination. However, if the plant has not been pollinated previously, self-pollination can occur. However, if cross pollination occurs after self-pollination takes place, the pollen from cross pollination reaches the style before the pollen from self-pollination. Using course concepts and vocabulary 1) Provide a reasoning for this phenomenon. 2) Would this adaptation for reproduction be beneficial for the plant?
