Question
Chapter 39, Problem 1IQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The explanation of any red -light-mediated responses if a seed with a mutation in the protein kinase domain of phytochrome is germinated.
Introduction: The photomorphogenesis refers to a process in which the light triggers the development of different plant parts and results in various complex changes such as the production of flowers. Another process called phototropism represents the directional growth responses towards the sunlight.

- Please help this is hw and I want to know why I'm wrong Why do many plants use pathways that detect light to regulate their flowering? Selected Answer: This allows plants to link flowering to temperature, which corresponds to the season when conditions are optimal Answers: This allows plants to link flowering to day length, which corresponds to the season when conditions are optimal Flower petals carry out high levels of photosynthesis and require high light conditions This allows plants to link flowering to temperature, which corresponds to the season when conditions are optimal A minimum amount of light is always necessary for floweringarrow_forwardStomata close in response to bacterial infection.

Drain off excess alcohol from the buds and aseptically excise the anthers from each bud. Remove the filaments and culture the anther on one of the agar media provided. Label the stage of development of the bud on each petri dish as the anthers are cultured. Seal the Petri dishes with parafilm. Incubate in the dark at 26 to 28ºC for 4 to 8 weeks or until small plants can be seen growing out of the anthers. Then transfer to diffuse light. Record the results of the experiment in table form and submit the report. Observation: The culture was contaminated after 8 weeks of incubation…arrow_forward
