Question
Chapter 29.3, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The accumulation of ethanol in the plant roots subjected to waterlogging.
Introduction:
The conversion of sugar molecule into metabolites in the anaerobic conditions is called fermentation. The products of the fermentation process are gases, such as carbon dioxide, organicacids, and alcohols.

Part F - How to determine transpiration rates by the whole plant method
Which of the following best explains why the plant in front of the fan lost more mass than the control plant in normal room conditions?
The leaves of the plant in front of the fan had the highest initial water potential and therefore lost the most water.
The control plant had lower initial water potential in the root area and therefore lost less water.
The control plant had a lower initial mass and so lost water at a decreased rate.
The fan rapidly moves water molecules away from the leaf surface, lowering the water potential.
MAKE CONNECTIONS Note three ways the propertiesof water contribute to soil formation. See Concept 3.2.
