- Q1Invasive 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 absorptionSeed dispersalPhotosynthesisDisease resistance30sB.10.B: Plant Systems
- Q2A 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 maturetransported to reproductive tissues by the plant’s shoot systemstored in plant stems until the flowers are pollinatedtransported by the phloem to the stomata in leaves, where it attracts pollinators30sB.10.B: Plant Systems
- Q3A 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?The side facing the light has a greater chance of absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphereWater evaporated faster on the side of the plant having full lightLight sensors in the grass tips stimulated a hormone in the shoot systemThe xylem in the root system absorbed more nutrients from the shaded side30sB.10.B: Plant Systems
- Q4Cytokinins 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 systemVascular systemNone of theseDermal system30sB.10.B: Plant Systems
- Q5Several structures work together to allow flowering plants to reproduce. The diagram shows a typical flower. Which table correctly identifies the function of each structure or group of structures in the reproduction of the plant?30sB.10.B: Plant Systems
