What do the guard cells do?

Control the opening and closing of stomata to change the rate of water vapour diffusing out of them

Control nutrients moving into the cell

Controls the rate of transpiration (loss of water through the leaf)

Students are instructed to place leafy celery stalks into color water in a beaker overnight. The following day, the students observed the color of the celery leaves changed from green to red. The students cut across the edge of the celery and observed the small tube openings along the edge are also red. How do the plant systems work together to make the movement of the liquid possible?

The roots absorb the water, minerals move up the stem, while the stem moves food produced in the leaves down to the roots.

The roots anchor the plant into the soil and the stem holds the leaves up.

The roots absorb their own water and minerals and the leaves push out CO2.

The roots lose water vapor to the soil and the stem loses water vapor through the leaves.

Where is evaporation taking place in a leaf?

palisade mesophyll cells to air spaces

air spaces to surrounding environment

Where is diffusion taking place in a leaf?

air spaces to surrounding environment

palisade mesophyll cells to air spaces

Epidermis of a leaf is made up of

single layer of epidermal cells

double layer of epidermal cells

triple layer of epidermal cells

Where are the epidermal cells covering a plant?

both upper and lower surfaces of a leaf

What are the uses of a leaf's waxy cuticle

covers the outer surface of the leaf

reduce water loss during transpiration

reduce the heat cause by the sun

increase the activity of photosynthesis

A leafy shoot was placed in a beaker containing a blue dye and then examined 5 hours later. Which statement explains the change in appearance?

Blue dye moves through the xylem.

Blue dye stains cells in the leaves.

Blue dye moves up the stem by osmosis

Blue dye diffuses through the cells of the plant.

What is translocation?

the transport of sucrose and amino acids in phloem tissues

the transport of sucrose and amino acids in the xylem tissues

the transport of water and minerals in the phloem tissues

the transport of water and minerals in the xylem tissues

A potometer is used to

find the rate of diffusion from a plant

The purpose of the layer of oil in the flask of the mass potometer is

to prevent water evaporating from the flask

to prevent bacteria entering the flask

to hold the plant steady in the flask

A leafy shoot was placed in the apparatus shown. The rate of movement of the air bubble was measured. Which change would make the air bubble move faster?

decreasing the air temperature around the shoot

increasing the humidity around the shoot

removing some leaves from the shoot

Which of these is an adaptation of hydrophytes?

Stomata on upper side of leaves

"Transpiration" is best described as

the loss of water vapour from plant leaves by evaporation at the surfaces of mesophyll cells followed by diffusion of water vapour through stomata

the movement of water through a plant from the roots up the stem to the leaves

the flow of water into plant roots by osmosis from the soil

the loss of water vapour from plant leaves by evaporation at the stomata
