It refers to the biological processes and changes that occur in an organism or a body in reaction to internal or external stimuli.
Example of factors in plant growth that are greatly affected by the environment.
Example of factors in geographic distribution that are greatly affected by the environment.
Which of the following is NOT included in the environmental factors that affect plant growth?
It refers to the intensity or concentration of sunlight
It refers to the color of light.
This color of light which plants absorbs, is responsible primarily for vegetative (leaf) growth.
This color of light which plants absorbs, when combined with blue light, encourages flowering
Plants look green to us because they reflect, rather than absorb green light.
The more sunlight a plant receives, the greater its capacity for producing food via photosynthesis.
You can manipulate light quantity to achieve different plant growth patterns thru:
Form flowers only when day length is less than 12 hours.
Form flowers only when day length exceeds 12 hours.
It influences most plant processes; it also varies due to altitude, change in seasons, day and night and distance from the water bodies.
These are plants which grow in very cold regions. One example is the mixed coniferous forest.
These are plants that require high temperature in the summer season and low temperature in the winter season.
These are plants which mostly grow in the alpine region. They require low temperature for growth.
The closer the temperature is to optimum, the quicker germination will occur.
It is the process which green plants, in the presence of chlorophyll and light energy (sunlight), manufacture carbohydrates (glucose) from CO2 and water. During this process, oxygen is given off.
It defined as the fundamental process by which different plant species grow from a single seed into a plant.
It is the release of energy from the breakdown of glucose in living cells.
Most growing plants contain about ____________ water.
It is the amount of water vapor in the air
Water is responsible for turgor pressure in cells.
Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted by the cell's fluid content against cell walls.
Transpiration usually is at its peak on hot, dry, windy days.Â
It refers to a plant's need for the use of basic chemical elements
If a plant is under stress because of low light or extreme temperatures, nutrient deficiency may develop.
Most of the nutrients a plant needs are dissolved in water and then absorbed by its roots.
It is the full range of radiation, organized by frequency or wavelength.
Pls write in order (from the longest wavelength up to the shortest)

Three examples of symbiotic relation- ships include: parasitism, mutualism, and commensalism. Parasitism (PAR-uh-SIET-IZ-UHM) is a relationship in which one indi- vidual is harmed while the other individual benefits. Mutualism (MYOO-choo-uhl-IZ-uhm) is a relationship in which both organisms derive some benefit. In commensalism (kuh-MEN-suhl-IZ-uhm), one organism benefits, but the other organism is neither helped nor harmed. Parasitism Parasitism is similar to predation in that one organism, called the host, is harmed and the other organism, called the parasite, benefits. However, unlike many forms of predation, parasitism usually does not result in the immediate death of the host. Generally, the parasite feeds on the host for a long time rather than kills it. Parasites such as aphids, lice, leeches, fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes that remain on the outside of their host are called ectoparasites. Parasites that live inside the host’s body are called endoparasites. Familiar endoparasites are heart- worms, disease-causing protists, and tapeworms, such as the one shown in Figure 20-5. Natural selection favors adaptations that allow a parasite to exploit its host efficiently. Parasites are usually specialized anatomically and physiologically for a par- asitic lifestyle. Parasites can have a strong negative impact on the health and reproduction of the host. Consequently, hosts have evolved a variety of defenses against parasites. Skin is an important defense that prevents most parasites from entering the body. Tears, saliva, and mucus defend openings through which parasites could pass, such as the eyes, mouth, and nose. Finally, the cells of the immune system may attack para- sites that get past these defenses. parasite from the Latin word parasitus, meaning “one who eats at the table of another” Word Roots and Origins Tapeworms are endoparasites that can grow to 20 m or greater in length. Tapeworms are so specialized for a parasitic lifestyle that they do not have a digestive system. They live in the host’s small intestine and absorb nutrients directly through their skin. Tapeworms reproduce by producing egg-filled chambers, which are released in their host’s feces to be unknowingly picked up by a future host. FIGURE 20-5 Copyright © by Holt, Rinehart and Winston.

Some mutualistic relation- ships are so close that neither species can survive without the other. An example of mutualism, shown in Figure 20-6, involves ants and some species of Acacia plants. The ants nest inside the acacia’s large thorns and receive food from the acacia. In turn, the ants protect the acacia from herbi- vores and cut back competing vegetation. Pollination is one of the most important mutualistic rela- tionships on Earth. Animals such as bees, butterflies, flies, beetles, bats, and birds that carry pollen between flowering plants are called pollinators. A flower is a lure for pollina- tors, which are attracted by the flower’s color, pattern, shape, or scent. The plant usually provides food—in the form of nectar or pollen—for its pollinators. As a pollinator feeds in a flower, it picks up a load of pollen, which it may then carry to other flowers of the same species. Commensalism Commensalism is an interaction in which one species benefits and the other species is not affected. Species that scavenge for leftover food items are often considered commensal species. However, a relationship that appears to be commensalism may simply be mutu- alism in which the mutual benefits are not apparent. An example of a commensal relationship is the relationship between cattle egrets and Cape buffaloes in Tanzania. The birds feed on small animals such as insects and lizards that are forced out of their hiding places by the movement of the buffaloes through the grass. Occasionally, the cattle egrets also feed on ectoparasites from the hide of the buffaloes, but the buffaloes gen- erally do not benefit from the presence of the egrets.PlantPlant diseases: TMV, crown gall disease and Chalara ash diebackPlant roots are adapted to absorb water and mineral ionsPlant Review
