Question : By looking at which internal structure of a plant can youtell whether a plant is C_(3) or C_(4) ? Explain.

Answer»

Solution :If mesophyll contains palisade PARENCHYMA and spongy CELL both then it is a `C_(3)` plant and if the leaf has palisade parenchyma CELLS, anad bundle sheath cells surrounded by vascular bundle, such is a Kranz anatomy it is a`C_(4)` plant.

19958.

Question : By looking at which internal structure of a plant can you tell whether a plant is C_(3) or C_(4)? Explain.

Answer»

Solution :By studying the internal structure of a leaf, it is possible to tell whether the plant is `C_(3) or C_(4).`The vascular bundles of leaves in `C_(4)`PLANTS are called bundle SHEATH CELLS and show Kranz anatomy. The bundle sheath cells may form several layers around the vascular bundles. Each bundle sheath cell possess chloroplasts which are radially elongated. Chloroplasts in the cells of bundle sheath lack GRANA, while mesophyll chloroplasts are normal in `C _(3)` plants.

Question : By looking at a plant externally can you tell whether a plant isC_(3)or C_(4)? When and how ?

Answer»

Solution :By looking at a plant externally, it is not possible to tell whether a plant is `C_(3) or C_(4)`however PLANTS which are adapted to dry tropical regions have the `C_(4)`pathways. Such plants are able to tolerate high temperature and exhibit marked responses towards light intensities `C_(4)`plants also have a greater PRODUCTIVITY of biomass. However externally `C_(4)`plants do no show any SPECIAL characteristics.

19969.

Question : Bulliform cells are present in maize leave.

Answer»

SOLUTION :In a maize leaf, group of 5 to 7 cells without chloroplasts and cuticle of large size are located at certain distance in UPPER epidermis in which small and slanted, unicellular trichomers are located on both lateral sides.
When moisture DECREASES and DRYNESS increases in atmosphere then mechanical cells lose water. So cells loe turgidity, leaf lamina curls. Thus due to decrease in area of leaf lamina, transpiration is prevented. These cells smell by absorbing water in humid atmosphere. So leaf is EXPOSED. So these cells are also called water absorbent cells.
Thus these cells induce movement of leaves so0 they are also called mechanical cells.
Thus bulliform cells are seen in a maize leaf.
