a.

Summary Introduction

To describe: The reason due to which only root apical meristem cells contain radioactive thymidine at 0 hours of incubation.

Introduction: Tips of roots and shoots consist of apical meristem tissues. They can differentiate into different types of cells. Division and growth in meristematic tissue lead to the growth of plants.

b.

Summary Introduction

To calculate: The percentage of radioactive cells, plotting radioactive cells percentage over time.

Introduction: Apical meristems are present at tips of root and shoots divide to form new cells and increase the length of roots and shoots.

c.

Summary Introduction

To analyze: Rise and fall in the percentage in radioactive cells in each region.

Introduction: Apical meristem divides continuously that result in the growth of the plant. Meristematic tissues are present at tips of roots and shoots.

✓ Details Draw a protein that is embedded in a membrane (a transmembrane protein), label the lipid bilayer and the protein. Identify the areas of the lipid bilayer that are hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Draw a membrane with two transporters: a proton pump transporter that uses ATP to generate a proton gradient, and a second transporter that moves glucose by secondary active transport (cartoon-like is ok). It will be important to show protons moving in the correct direction, and that the transporter that is powered by secondary active transport is logically related to the proton pump.
