Question:

Glycolate induces opening of stomata in

Updated On: Jun 23, 2024

Presence of oxygen
Low CO2 conc.
High CO
CO2 absent

Verified By Collegedunia

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Glycolate is involved in the process of photorespiration, which occurs when there is a low concentration of CO2 inside the leaf. In such conditions, glycolate accumulates, which can lead to stomatal opening as part of a mechanism to improve CO2 uptake and minimize the effects of photorespiration. So, the correct option is (B): Low CO2 conc.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : The potential (V) at any axial point, at 2 m distance(r) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector \(\vec{P}\) of magnitude, 4 × 10^-6 C m, is ± 9 × 10³ V.
(Take \(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=9\times10^9\) SI units)
Reason R : \(V=±\frac{2P}{4\pi \epsilon_0r^2}\), where r is the distance of any axial point, situated at 2 m from the centre of the dipole.

Transport in Plants

The two types of conducting tissues that are used to transport the water and minerals in plants such as:

Xylem:

Xylem is a long, non-living tube running from the roots to the leaves via the stem. The water is absorbed by the root hair and goes through cell-to-cell movement by osmosis until it reaches the xylem. This water is then transported throughout the xylem vessels to the leaves and is evaporated by the process of transpiration.

The xylem is also composed of lengthened cells like the phloem. However, the xylem is mainly accountable for transporting water to all plant parts from the roots. Since they serve such a vital function, a single tree would have a lot of xylem tissues.

Phloem:

The phloem is accountable for the translocation of nutrients and sugar like carbohydrates, produced by the leaves to areas of the plant that are metabolically in force. It is powered by living cells. The cell walls of these cells structurize small holes at the ends of the cells known as sieve plates.

Means of Transportation in Plants:

Transportation in plants is by 3 means, they are as follows:

Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion
Active Transport
