Textbook Question
Chapter 36, Problem 18TYK
Which of the following mechanisms explains the movement of sucrose from source to sink?
- a. osmotic movement of water into the sucrose-loaded sieve-tube elements, creating a higher pressure in the source than in the sink
- b. tension created by pressure differences in the source and the sink
- c. active transport of sucrose through the sieve-tube cells driven by proton pumps
- d. the hydrolysis of starch to sucrose in mesophyll cells, which raises their water potential and drives the bulk flow of sap to the sink

Anna conducted an experiment that aimed to determine the deficiency symptoms of
tomato plants placed in a hydroponic solution. Six bottles were prepared, and each
bottle, except for the positive control, lacked a certain micronutrient. In the positive
control, all nutrients were provided. Unexpectedly, the control setup still showed
symptoms of micronutrient deficiency. Students later on found out that the relative
humidity in the room was very high and transpiration was affected.
1.Explain the appearance of these symptoms in the positive control set-up in lieu of the
importance of transpiration?
2.Theoretically, how will thermoregulation of tomato plants be affected if transpiration
will not occur
3. Discuss internal factors that could affect the rate of transpiration of the tomato plant.
Following infection with a pathogen, one response is to spread an alarm signal to increase defenses and antimicrobial compounds throughout the plant body and the network of plants connected by mycorrhizae.
Which chemical spread this alarm signal?
Select one:
a. Salicylic acid
b. Jasmonic acid
c. Indole acetic acid
d. Gibberellic acid
e. Abscisic acid
Choose the possible places a water molecule can go once it has traveled from the roots to a leaf cell.
A. Return to the soil
B. Release to the atmosphere
C. Store in central vacuole
D. Mitochondria
