Water’s properties of surface tension, cohesion, and adhesion are central to the ability of transpiration to pull water up from

the roots to the leaves through the xylem. Sort each statement into the appropriate bin to indicate if the change described in the statement would increase, decrease, or not affect the pull that transpiration generates in the xylem of a tree.

Answer:

6.) larger diameter of stomatal pores

A) Increased transpiration pull

1.) thicker film of water on surface of mesophyll cells

2.) higher relative humidity in air around leaf

B) decreases transpiration pull

3.) less curvature of water surface on mesophyll cell walls

4.) lower rate of water evaporation from surface of mesophyll cells.

5.) larger air space in leaf interior

C) has no effect on transpirational pull.

Explanation:

  • Transpiration primarily occurs through stomatal openings in the leaves. Increasing the diameter or size of these opening would ultimately increase the amount of water escaping from them and therefore, increase the transpiration rate.
  • Higher humidity in the air entails the presence of greater number of water vapours in the atmosphere. Since osmotic pressure plays a major role in transpiration, therefore, this decreases the rate of transpiration.

During photosynthesis, specific pigments absorb light energy, which is then used to fuel the building of sugar molecules. Which
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Chlorophyll a- violet blue

Chlorophyll b - orange red

Carotenoids- green yellow

Explanation:

The three major plant pigments are chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoids.

Various pigments are identified by their specific pattern of wavelength absorption in the spectrum of visible light. Chlorophyll a absorbs light in the violet-blue region, while chlorophyll b absorbs orange-red light. Chlorophyll a and b reflects or transmits green light hence they appear green. Carotenoids absorb light in the green - yellow region hence they reflect longer yellow, red, and orange light.
