During a windstorm, a large old tree fell in the forest. As it came down, it trapped a young sapling about 5 meters tall underne

ath it. The top of the sapling bent to the ground under the weight of the other tree but the sapling did not break. What will be the most likely long-term consequence of this for the sapling?
Answer

Auxin and gibberellin in the sapling's stem will cause a gravitropic response in the sapling, and its top will grow upward even though it is held down.

Cytokinin and ethylene will migrate into the top of the sapling, causing a thigmotropic response, and it will

Answer: Cytokinin and ethylene will migrate into the top of the sapling, causing a thigmotropic response, and it will.

Tropism refers to the response a plant shows with respect to the external stimulus like gravity, touch, and sunlight. Thigmotropism is a type of the response of the stimulus shown by the plants with respect to touch stimuli.

In the given situation the sapling bends due to the effect of thigmotropism, the sapling being bend by the heavy weight of the other plant. Hence, cytokinin and ethylene two growth hormones of the plants will provide support to the plant and facilitate it to stand erect, prevent injury under such pressure condition.

Cells in a large multicellular organism communicate with each other by chemical signals. These signals are passed from one cell
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Cells in a large multicellular organism communicate with each other by chemical signals. These signals are passed from one cell to another. To receive and respond to a chemical signal, a cell must have a <u><em>receptor</em></u> for that chemical.

Explanation:

To generate a physiological response, all cells in the body have special proteins called receptors. These receptors are involved in detecting a chemical signal and generating a response. The receptors are specific for different kind of chemical signals. For example, a dopamine receptor will bind a dopamine molecule whereas an insulin receptor will be able to bind an insulin molecule. Apart from chemical signals, some cells might also respond to mechanical signals.
