Question : Two groups (A & B) of bean plants 450nm & Group B to light of wave of similar size and same leaf area were length of 500-550nm. Compare the placed in identical conditions. Group A photosynthetic rate of the2 groups givwas exposed to light of wavelength 400 reasons.

Answer»

Solution :Group A will show, more photosphynthesis . Chlorophyll absrobs maximumlightin the blueregion of the SPECTRUM, i.e., 400-450 nm hence , photosythetic rateeill alsohe high.
Group BWILL show negligible amountof photosynthesisor no PHOTOSYNTHESIS. ChlorophyII does not absorb any LIGHTIN the greenregion, i.e, 500-550 nm, but reflectsgreen.

Answer»

CELL `A`to cell `B`
cell `B`to cell `A`
no movement of water
cannot be determined.

Solution : For cell `A:DPD=OP-TP=10-6=4 ATM`
For cell `B:DPD=OP-TP=10-4=6atm`
As water MOVES from a cell with lower DPD to cell with HIGHER DPD, therefore water will move from cell `A` to cell `B`

WALL pressure

9122.

Question : Differentiate between : Turgor pressure and wall pressure (Explain)

Answer»

Solution :The HYDROSTATIC pressure developed inside the CELL on the cell wall due to ENDOSMOSIS is called turgor pressure. Due to turgor pressure the RIGID cell wall offers resistance. This resistance, which works in a direction opposite to the turgor pressure but is equal in strength to the turgor pressure, is called wall pressure.

Answer»

Solution :A `Na^(+) // K^(+)` pump operates WHEREBY efflux of `Na^+` is linked to influx of `K^+` without `K^+` , no `Na^+` efflux can OCCUR , so `Na^+` ACCUMULATES within the cells by DIFFUSIONAND `K^+` leaves the cells by DIFFUSION.

Question : Try to collect all the currently accepted meanings for the word 'Species'. Discuss with your teacher the meaning of species in case of higher plants and animals on one hand, and bacteria on the other hand.

Answer»

Solution :Taxonomic studies consider a group of individual organisms with fundamental SIMILARITIES as a species. One should be able to distinguish one species from the other closely related species based on the distinct morphological differences. For example, Solanum includes species like Nigrum and Tuberosum. Both are different species of potato. In CASE of higher PLANTS one genus MAY have one or more than one species. In case of bacteria their SHAPE is consider. These are spherical, coccus, rod-shaped, comma and spiral - shaped.
