WSU BIO 106 Exam 1 The three basic plant organs, ________, are organized into_____________. - Leaves, Stems, Roots; A shoot system and a root system Nodes - The point at which leaves are attached Internodes - The stem segments between nodes Root - -An organ that anchors the plant into the ground -Absorbs minerals and water from the tip -Stores organic nutrients -Root hairs increase surface area and absorb most of the water and minerals Axillary Bud - A structure that has poten...

Monocot root system - Answer-Fibrous Eudicot root system - Answer-Taproot Mycorrhizae - Answer-Symbiotic relationship between plants and fungi (hyphae) - increase in surface area Nodes - Answer-Portion(s) of the stem where leaves attach Internodes - Answer-Segments of the stem where no leaves attach Terminal buds - Answer-Composed of developing leaves and are partly responsible for inhibiting the growth of axillary buds by apical dominance. Apical dominance - Answer-Plants grow verticall...

C4 The ______ photosynthetic pathway is where carbon dioxide is fixed by RUBISCO into sugars via the Calvin Cycle. It uses ATP, photorespiration is minimized, and it increases the rate of photosynthesis. C3 In the ______ photosynthetic pathway, carbon dioxide is fixed by RUBISCO into sugars via the Calvin Cycle (just like in C4). CAM The _____ photosynthetic pathway separates light-dependent reactions and uses carbon dioxide and the Calvin cycle temporarily. C3 The ______ photosynthetic pathw...
