Question
Chapter 38.1, Problem 3LO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The two beneficial associations that can be found between plants and microorganisms.
Introduction: Microorganisms are widely associated with other organisms such as plants, animals, and decaying matter. The association of the microbes to the source of the environment is necessary to provide the energy source in the form of nutrients. The bacteria in turn release some organic or inorganic products that can be beneficial or harmful to the hosts.

Why is this relationship between a plant and bacterium called a mutualism?
B) Describe the mechanisms employed by two types of plants to minimize photorespiration and ensure that the
CC is carried out even when environmental conditions are not in their favor. Be sure to identify 1) the type of
plant, 2) its natural environment and how it affects the plant's ability to perform the CC, and 3) how it has
adapted itself to minimize photorespiration.

Two groups of plants are grown from seed in identical soil types, exposed to identical light conditions, and given the same nutrients. Group A is in a quiet atmosphere. The plants in group B provided with the same atmosphere, except that classical music is played for twelve hours daily in this area. The scientist measures the plants in both groups each day and records the data.

You want to investigate the role that these variables play in plant growth. You decide to test the substrate and see if changing substrate mixes will affect plant growth. Match the following experimental components with their descriptions. Experimental Components: ( Experimental Variable, Dependent Variable, Control Condition, Independent Variabe, A Confounding Variable That Must Be Held Constant) 1. type of substrate used: 2. growth resulting from substrate type 3. amount of water needed in all plants 4. substrate that is changed during the experiment 5. substrate that is not changed during the experimentarrow_forward2.
