Phenylketonuria is a disease that was caused by lack of the enzyme to digest <span>phenylalanine so the metabolic waste can be accumulated. The disease can cause permanent growth reta.rdation to the patient.  But early treatment can prevent the damage. That is why the physician should inform the parent immediately.</span>

A plant scientist was hired by a greenhouse operator to devise a way to force iris plants to bloom in the short days of winter.
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Interrupt the long winter nights with a brief period of light.

Explanation:

Long day plants, also called short night plants, flower when the dark period is equal or less than the critical period specific for the species. These plants normally flower in summers when nights are short and days are longer. Winters have a long dark period and do not support flowering in shirt night plants.

A continuous dark period is critical for flowering. A short night plant can flower in winters (having longer dark periods) if the dark period is interrupted by exposing the plant with a flash of light. To make short night plants, such as iris to flower in winters, the plant should be given short period of light after completion of critical dark period.
