Paul Klein has a favorite plant which is Duranta repens. He places the plant aloe in a covered airtight container that is exposed to the sunlight. Assume a watering system is provided. What will happen to the plant? Will it live or die? Why?
The following model is what type of root:
Monocot or Eudicot
Growers often wrap potted plants in plastic sleeves prior to shipping. If plants remain in these sleeves too long, their leaves curl and fall off. Imagine you are working at a garden center and have been asked to make a presentation to a local garden club. how can growers avoid problems for example when it comes to plastic sleeves how can we fix it

- The following model is considered what root? Eudicot or Monocotarrow_forwardAbout 200 years ago, Jan Batista van Helmont wanted to know where growing plants get the materials necessary for increase in size. He planted a tree seedling weighing 2.2 kilograms (5 pounds) in a barrel filled with 90 kilograms (200 pounds) of soil and then watered the tree regularly. After 5 years, the tree had gained almost 75 kilograms (164 pounds), and the soils weight was unchanged. He incorrectly concluded that the tree had gained all of its additional weight by absorbing water. How did the tree really gain most of its weight?arrow_forwardGrowers often wrap potted plants in plastic sleeves prior to shipping.

- To investigate the function of the root system, four set-ups will also be prepared. Test tubes 1-3 will be filled with water to about three-fourths full, while only about 5-10 drops of water should be added into tube 4. Three fresh plants with intact roots and rid of the soil, will be placed into test tubes 2, 3 and 4. Roots should be completely immersed in water in tubes 2 and 3 while the root of the plant in tube 4 should not be in contact with (well above) the water. This will establish the setups which are: (a.) plant-free control, (b.) plant immersed in pure distilled water, (c.) plant immersed in distilled water-food color mixture, (d.) un-immersed plant. A few drops of oil should be added in all tubes to form a lipid layer on top of the water column on each set up. The set-ups should sit undisturbed at room temperature for two days. After 2 days, the water level will be observed as well as the condition of the plants in all the test tubes.Interpret the result obtained from each…arrow_forwardComparison of Vigna radiata (dicot) and Zea mays (monocot) seeds.

Even though, the sleeves are a temporary fit for transport and shipping, what other items do you think the growers can use instead of the plastic sleeves to help?arrow_forward
- Why is clay a challenging soil for plants to grow into? Group of answer choices The field capacity point is really low, causing water to seep through the soil quickly Both the wilting point and field capacity are really low, causing the soil to be immediately oversaturated The distance between field capacity and wilting point is extremely small, which makes the plants highly susceptible to changes in precipitation It has a high wilting point, a lot of rain has to fall before plants can access the waterarrow_forwardYou prune 10 cm from a branch on the sunny side of a plant AND from one on the shady side. How will the plant respond? Same or differently on the two sides? Why?arrow_forwardIn your yard, you find a new weed has popped overnight that you haven't seen before and you are trying to identify it. It has a pretty little red flower with six petals and parallel leaf veins. You cut open one of the stems and notice that it has vascular tissue scattered throughout the stem in an unorganized manner. You know immediately that this is a dicot. an angiocot. a monocot. a eudicot.arrow_forward
