Answer:

The history of net photosynthesis and transpiration per unit leaf area was determined for intact soybean leaves from their unfolding to senescence during flowering and pod filling on untreated (podded) and partially depodded plants growing in a glasshouse. Leaf diffusive resistances to CO2 were calculated and a water use efficiency parameter was derived (net mass of carbon dioxide fixed per unit mass of water transpired per millibar vapour pressure deficit). Net photosynthesis and transpiration behaved similarly through all stages of leaf development. A number of peaks were evident in these parameters. The first was associated with leaf expansion and occurred when the leaf reached its maximum area. The second peak coincided with flowering of the plant and later peaks occurred during pod filling. Stomatal and mesophyll resistances also exhibited similar behaviour during the life of the leaf; the possible causes of this linkage are discussed. Water use efficiency increased rapidly up to the time of full lamina expansion. Thereafter, it rose slowly or remained stable until leaf senescence approached, when the efficiency declined. Net photosynthesis and transpiration of leaves were very similar in both podded and partially depodded plants. It appears that to prevent a shortage of assimilate during flowering and pod filling, photosynthesis may be maintained or increased in some leaves and the response is not related to the number of pods available for filling. The increases in photosynthesis were correlated with both higher stomatal and mesophyll conductances. Mechanisms by which the plant may control leaf photosynthesis are discussed.

7. Explain the difference between disorders of chromosome number and disorders caused by
elena-s [515]

Answer:

A person can have normal chromosomes in number and structure, but still have a disease or condition caused by a mutation in one or more of the genes on the chromosomes. A single gene defect usually does not cause the chromosome structure or number to be abnormal.

Explanation:

I'm not sure if this is correct but hope it helps.

Explain the phenomenon of photorespiration, including why it is thought to occur (evolutionarily speaking), and why plants have
liubo4ka [24]

Photorespiration limits casualty products of light reactions that build up in the absence of the Calvin cycle. In many plants, photorespiration is a problem because on a hot, dry day it can drain as much as 50% of the carbon fixed by the Calvin cycle.  The closing of stomata reduces access to CO2 and causes O2 to build up. These conditions favor a seemingly not useful process called photorespiration.  In most plants (C3 plants), initial fixation of CO2, via rubisco, forms a three-carbon compound.  In photorespiration, rubisco adds O2 instead of CO2 in the Calvin cycle. Photorespiration eats up O2 and organic fuel and releases CO2 without producing ATP or sugar. Photorespiration can evolve relic because rubisco first evolved at a time when the atmosphere had far less O2 and more CO2.
