What effect does the amount of water have on plant growth?
Answer:
Necessary for photosynthesis - food production to provide energy for growth
Helps in transport of nutrients and other substances
Helps the plant remain upright
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is the production of sugar by plants. It requires sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. The sunlight energy breaks the water molecule into hydrogen ions and oxygen. Oxygen is released, and the hydrogen ions are used to provide energy to power the reactions that make sugar from carbon dioxide. These sugars are needed to provide energy for all plant processes including growth.
Water is also required to transport nutrients and other substances around the plants via the plant transport system. The substances are dissolved in water.
Finally, water is needed to remain turgor pressure in the cells. This gives the plant structure and helps it to remain upright to absorb more sunlight.
Between 2015 and 2020, the rate of deforestation was estimated at 10 million hectares per year, down from 16 million hectares per year in the 1990s. The area of primary forest worldwide has decreased by over 80 million hectares since 1990.
Answer: Once proteins are created, they move to another organelle, the Golgi (GAWL jee) apparatus. The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packs the proteins into sacs called vesicles. The vesicles fuse with the cell's plasma membrane.
