induced dormany
|
environmental factor forces dormancy, can be removed but remains dormant till something else triggers it
|
|
enforced dormany
|
held in check by environmental factor, but when removed does not remain dormant.
|
|
seed germination test
|
mean days === n1t1 + n2t2...nxtx/// total # of seeds germinating
|
|
cool temperature tolerant plants
|
can germinate from about 40 F to tethal limit. broccoli, carrot
|
|
cool temp requiring plants
|
fail to germinate at temps higher than 77 F. celery, lettuce.
|
|
warm temp requiring plants
|
fail to germinate at less than 50 F. beans, eggplant.
|
|
leaves have
|
blade, petiole, and stipule
|
|
simple leaves have
|
one blade.
|
|
pinnately netted
|
dicot, one main vein
|
|
palmately netted
|
many main veins come out from single place, then branch out
|
|
axillary buds
|
axil of leaf is angle b/t stem and petiole.
|
|
diffusion
|
high to low concentration.
|
|
direction of phloem transport
|
source to sink
|
|
source
|
solute particles actively transported into sieve lements, produce low h2o potential.
|
|
sink
|
solute particles are transported out of sieve elements, raising water potential. water leaves sieve elements b/c of their high water potential.
|
|
adhesion
|
attraction of h2o molecules to another substance
|
|
cohesion
|
mutual attraction of water molecules to each other
|
|
tension
|
created by cohesion of h20 molecules.
|
|
capillarity
|
rise of h2o in a column due to adhesion to surface of wall and cohesion of h2o.
|
|
gravitational water
|
free water that filters down through the soil
|
|
capillary water
|
capillary movement in soil.
|
|
hydroscopic water
|
adheres to soil particles so tightly roots can't get it
|
|
components of soil
|
sand, silt, clay, humus.
|
|
order of ions held to negatively charged particles such as clay or humus:
|
H > Ca > Mg > K > Na.
H is tightest so can easily replace other ions. |
|
chopkn's cafe, managed by my cousins clyde and molly
|
CHOPKN'S CaFe, Mg BMn CuZn Cl Mo
|
|
macronutrients
|
C H O N P K Mg Ca S
|
|
Micronutrients
|
Fe Mn B Cu Zn Cl Mo
|
|
nitrogen
|
necessay part of proteins. helps with rapid growth. deficency- light green appearance in leaves, older leaves first, stunted growth.
|
|
phosphorus
|
essential part of photosynthesis process. deficiency- dark green leaves, fruit and seed production stopped.
|
|
potassium
|
not part of structure but helps build things. deficiency- older leaves yellow around margins and die, fruit irregular.
|
|
calcium
|
part of plant wall structure, affects membrane permeablility. defiency- reduced growth, death of growing tips, roots become short and thickened.
|
|
magnesium
|
part of chlorophyll molecule. activates enzymes for growth. deficiency- yellowing b/t leaf veins, older leaves first. poor fruit production.
|
|
sulfur
|
essential for production of protein, improves root growth, resistance to cold. deficiency- yellowing of leaves, young leaves first, weak stems
|
|
micronutrients
|
mostly involved as parts of enzymes, with photosyn and resp.
|
|
iron deficiency
|
yellowing b/t veins of young leaves, leaves eventually become white.
|
|
photosynthesis equation
|
6CO2 + 12H2O + light = C6H12O6 + 6H2O + 6O2.
|
|
light reactions
|
in thylakoid membrane, give off 6O2. Produce ATP and NADPH. Photons jump to excited state then go down ctyochrome complex.
|
|
dark reactions
|
carbon dioxide is fixed, taken up by RuBP. Uses energy from ATP and NADPH to isolate carbon and build glucose.
|
|
C4 metabolism
|
specialized leaf structure. CO2 forms 4C organic acid. stores CO2 in these compounds. but takes 2 more ATP to run calvin cycle.
|
|
respiration equation
|
C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + liberated energy.
|
|
glycolysis
|
in cytosol. produces 2 pyruvate. releases CO2. produces 6 ATP, 2 NADH.
|
|
krebs cycle
|
in mitochondira. GDP changes to GTP.
|
|
electron transport chain
|
1NADH hands off electron, produces 3 ATP. 1 FADH2 produces 2 ATP.
