Question
Chapter 4, Problem 8SA
Summary Introduction
To review:
One of the chief ways in which energy “moves” through cells within a plant.
Introduction:
Plants fix solar energy to make their own chemical energy and then go on to use this chemical energy to fuel their cellular activities.

- If a C3 plant that normally closes its stomata during hot, dry conditions were triggered to open them instead, the most likely outcome would be that O water leaves the leaf, decreasing the rate of photosynthesis O glucose leaves the leaf, increasing the rate of photosynthesis O CO₂ enters the leaf, decreasing the rate of photosynthesis O O₂ enters the leaf, increasing the rate of photosynthesis more chlorophyll is made, increasing the rate of photosynthesisarrow_forwardThe image below shows a plant that has one stem wrapped in plastic. You can see the condensation of water on the inside of the plastic bag. Which of the following best explain the processes required for the bag to accrue 1 point condensation?

O These plants use a different electron donor so that they won't consume water O These plants keep stomata closed day and night to avoid evaporation O These plants collect carbon dioxide at night, but then use the carbon dioxide during the day O These plants are heterotrophs, so they do not need to rely on light reactions that consume waterarrow_forwardExplain the transportation in plants.arrow_forward
- Diagram 3: Light Wave Absorption of Chlorophyll a and b. Chlorophyll a Chlorophyll b 400 450 500 550 600 650 700 Wavelength (nm) Plant chlorophyll chemicals will absorb, or take in, light wave energy in order to produce their own organic molecules used for cellular energy. Reflected light refers to those wavelengths of light that will "bounce off" of the chlorophyll and not be absorbed. Select the conclusion that most accurately summarizes the data in diagram 3. Red and blue light waves have equal importance during photosynthesis. The majority of light energy is attained from red light, while the blue light waves provide additional light energy to photosynthesis.
