A mutation is any change in the number or structure of a chromosome. The image you see here shows damaged DNA. There are several possible causes of mutations, such as radiation damage or chemical exposure. Sometimes, segments or entire chromosomes are deleted and not passed on to the new cell. Other times, the patterns are mixed up or made backwards. All of these mutations cause changes in normal patterns and result in new chromosome formations.

Answer:

Explanation:

1)Pfr/Pr

2) Pr

3)far-red

Explanation:

The leaves at the top of a tree’s canopy are exposed to direct sunlight during the day, and their phytochromes will occur in a high *Pfr/Pr* ratio. Meanwhile, the leaves of the same tree at the bottom of the canopy are highly shaded during the day and will likely have a higher proportion of the * ( PHYTOCHROME )Pr *;form of phytochrome present due to exposure to a higher proportion of *FAR RED * light.

Plants make use of the phytochrome system to it's adjust growth based on the seasons. Through phytochrome plants is able to respond to the timing and duration of dark and light periods. At dawn, all the phytochrome molecules present in the leaved are converted to the active Pfr form until sunset this is because the sun is unfiltered, and unfiltered sunlight has high percentage of red light, but lower far-red light, with the help of phytochrome system , the plants is able to compare the length of dark periods over several days.

In flowering plants, plasmodesmata are narrow channels through cell walls that connect the cytoplasms of adjacent cells. AN expl
tatiyna

The plant cells communicate across cell walls through Plasmodesmata.

how do plant cells communicate across cell walls?

  • Between tiny channels woven through the walls of neighboring plant cells, plant cells can communicate with one another through channels referred to as plasmodesmata.
  • These channels enable chemicals to move freely between cells, allowing plants to grow regularly and form tissues and organs.
  • However, plasmodesmata also act as entryways that viruses can employ to infect an increasing number of cells.
  • Given these advantages and disadvantages, plants must balance the permeability of their plasmodesmata in order to move materials from one cell to another while preventing the spread of infection.
