  • Q1
    Invasive plant species affect the interactions of living and nonliving components of an ecosystem, so the removal of invasive plants is often necessary. The goal of most plant-control methods is to disrupt or inhibit the function of different plant systems. For example, insects can be used to chew through roots in order to reduce a plant’s ability to absorb water. Which of these functions would be most immediately affected by a reduction in water uptake by roots?
    Sunlight absorption
    Seed dispersal
    Photosynthesis
    Disease resistance

  • Q2
    A student reads this advertisement for a product containing a plant micronutrient that can be added to soil. Based on this information, the student can conclude that boron is absorbed by plant roots from soil and then —

    concentrated in the roots until the plant’s reproductive tissues mature
    transported to reproductive tissues by the plant’s shoot system
    stored in plant stems until the flowers are pollinated
    transported by the phloem to the stomata in leaves, where it attracts pollinators

  • Q3
    A student conducted an investigation to study phototropism in grasses. The only difference between the control group and the experimental group was light conditions. The control group was provided full light, while the experimental group was shaded on one side. The diagrams show the average heights and positions of blades of grass in the investigation. Which statement best explains why the grass tips of the experimental group bent toward the light?
    Question Image
    The side facing the light has a greater chance of absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
    Water evaporated faster on the side of the plant having full light
    Light sensors in the grass tips stimulated a hormone in the shoot system
    The xylem in the root system absorbed more nutrients from the shaded side

  • Q4
    Cytokinins are a class of plant hormones that help regulate growth by promoting cell division. Cytokinins are produced mainly in meristematic tissue, where most plant growth occurs. Which system carries cytokinins produced in the roots to the rest of the plant?
    Reproductive system
    Vascular system
    None of these
    Dermal system
