To calculate the dry weight of the entire spinach plant
Biomass can be defined as the total quantity or the total weight of the organism in a given area or volume. In order to calculate the biomass of the plant dry weight of the plant parts such as its stem, leaves is taken into consideration. The net biomass does not include water or the moisture content of the plant.
Steroid hormones affects cells by binding to intracellular receptor
complex that composed of a single polypeptide chains, which promote or inhibit
transcription of specific genes. The receptors for steroid hormones are located
inside the target cells specifically in the nucleus or cytoplasm, which bind to
regions of receptive genes.
<span>Therefore, the function of steroid hormones is to control gene
expression in target cells by selectively affecting the transcription of a set
of genes. The proteins concentration of the target cells are altered, which
could result to the modification of the phenotype of cell. </span>
