Question
Chapter 29.4, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The yellowing of the older leaves of soybean plant followed by a long wet weather.
Introduction:
The nitrogen fixing bacteria, such as Rhizobium, Klebsiella, and Frankia forms the symbiotic relationship with plant species (legumes). They benefit the plants by reducing the nitrogen gas into ammonia. The leguminous species are benefited by the soil bacteria by making nitrogen in the available form for the absorption.

A. What challenges face the next Green Revolution?
B. What is Marker Assisted Breeding?
C. Most of the improvement in agricultural crop yields has been through inputs: getting more fertilizer to the plant, decreasing weeds, spacing, reducing loss from pests and local environmental changes. But the next big engineering feat will be with the plant molecular pathways themselves, in particular, photosynthesis. The article refers to C3 and C4 plants. What are plant geneticists trying to accomplish?

- Q7. A potted geranium sits on the windowsill of your dorm room, absorbing sunlight. You place a large box like filter over your plant for a few days. The filter prevents all light except green light from entering. If you weigh it after a few days (discounting the weight of the water) will it weigh more or less than before? A. It will weigh more because carbon fixation is taking place. B. It will weigh more as long as it has enough of the terminal electron acceptor oxygen. C. It will weigh less because it is still undergoing respiration. D. It will weigh less because the energy gained from a green photon of light raises electrons in chlorophyll to a lower excited state than red or blue light.arrow_forwardI need help.arrow_forwardINTERPRET DATA The figure depicts the absorption spectrum of a plant pigment.
