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.

How do protons contribute towards making ATP?...
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: Protons contribute towards making ATP by producing proton-motive force that provides energy for ATP synthesis.

Explanation: In the respiratory chain, the transfer of electrons from one complex to another is accompanied by pumping of protons out of the matrix. This creates a difference in proton concentration and separation of charge across the mitochondrial inner membrane. The electrochemical energy inherent in this difference in proton concentration called proton-motive force is used to drive ATP synthesis as protons flow back passively into the matrix through a proton pore.

What is the atom of the element boron?
Agata [3.3K]

The atomic number is 5. The atomic number gives the number of protons. Protons which have a positive charge are balanced by an equal number of electrons in a neutral atom.  Boron number 5 has five protons and therefore as a neutral atom also has five electrons. Boron atomic number 5 has five electrons in its ground state.  Commonly Boron will lose 3 electrons leaving 2 electrons in its most common ionic form.
