Question
Chapter 38, Problem 3S
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The way through which the sites receiving the signal may vary during the course of growth when the systemin get transported through the phloem of the tomato plant.
Introduction:
The wound response in plants occurs when the leaf gets injured or chewed by the invader. During such responses, there is a rapid synthesis and release of proteinase inhibitor. Such type of inhibitors is only synthesized in conditions when the plant is wounded.

Plant cells communicate in a variety of ways to elicit cellular responses. In the figure below the plant is responding the presence of light with the release of auxin. Auxin was first discovered for its ability to promote growth in plants. It is a plant hormone that inhibits the lengthening and stimulate the formation of lateral roots and root hairs.
a) Describe the plant’s response to the presence of light. (refer to picture)
What are three types of signaling processes based on their transduction distance? Give an example for each type.
What are the signaling molecules in the plant? Please describe each of them briefly.
It is the term referring to the characteristic leaf structure of C4 plants that enables them to outperform C3 plants in an environment that has high O2 concentration and/or temperature. Unlike C3 and CAM plants, C4 plants, such as corn and sugarcane, have leaves with vascular bundles that are surrounded by a chloroplast-rich vascular bundle sheath, which is further surrounded by the spongy mesophyll.

- Green fluorescent protein (GFP) can attach and mark other proteins with fluorescence, enabling scientists to see the presence of a particular protein. In an experiment to understand the molecular physiology behind the GA-induced seed germination, a GFP-tagged protein was observed to be moving from the cytoplasm into the nucleus of aleurone layer cells before the detection of alpha-amylase in the endosperm. Based on your knowledge, identify the possible protein(s) with which the GFP is attached in the given situation. Justify your answer.arrow_forwardGive Detailed explanation Solution (don't give Handwritten answer)arrow_forwardExplain how coumarins are usually stored in the vegetable in an un-elicited tissue, compared to a vegetable under conditions of biotic (or abiotic) stress in which, for example, leaf tissue disruption occurs.

Choices may be used more than once or not at all. Chemical signals called play an important role in a plant's ability to respond to a stimulus. These signals bind to receptors, the first step in a cellular response called a may be located in the plasma membrane, the cytoplasm, the nucleus, or the endoplasmic reticulum. The series of relay proteins or enzymes activated by the hormone binding the receptor make up the Some responses are immediate, while others require a like Ca*, to initiate a cellular response.
