explain the roles of plant hormones in seed dormancy, seed germination, and directional growth of the emerging root and shoot?
In the heart embryo stage of Arabidopsis thaliana, there are three key anatomical features that are essential for plant
development. The red highlighted cells will become the
the yellow highlighted cells will become the
and the two "lobes" of the heart will become the
suspensor; apical meristem; seed coat
basal daughter cell; apical daughter cell; cotyledons
shoot apical meristem; root apical meristem; taproots
suspensor; shoot apical meristem; taproots
root apical meristem; shoot apical meristem; cotyledons
Identify the key components of the flowering plant life cycle.
