Frage 1

Frage
Which graph shows most clearly what will happen to the rate of transpiration as humidity increases?

Frage 2

Frage
The diagram shows a potted plant and the same plant 24 hours later. What causes the change in the appearance of the plant?
Antworten
  • A Water loss is greater than water uptake.
  • B Water moves from the leaves to the stem.
  • C Water uptake is equal to water loss.
  • D Water uptake is greater than water loss.

Frage 3

Frage
By which process is water lost from a leaf?
Antworten
  • A active transport
  • B diffusion
  • C osmosis
  • D photosynthesis

Frage 4

Frage
The lower end of a plant stem is placed in water coloured with red dye. After three hours, the stem is cut as shown in the diagram. Which labelled region is stained red?
Antworten
  • A
  • B
  • C
  • D

Frage 5

Frage
What is transported in the phloem and what is the direction of transport?
Antworten
  • A starch, up and down
  • B starch, up only
  • C sucrose, down and up
  • D sucrose, down only

Frage 6

Frage
In which order does water pass through the cells of a plant, as the water travels from the roots to a leaf?
Antworten
  • A mesophyll cells → root hair → root cortex → xylem
  • B root cortex → root hair → xylem → mesophyll cells
  • C root hair → mesophyll cells → root cortex → xylem
  • D root hair → root cortex → xylem → mesophyll cells

Frage 7

Frage
The diagram shows a plant shoot and the same shoot six hours later. Which change in environmental conditions could cause this change in the shoot?
Antworten
  • A a decrease in available water
  • B a decrease in light intensity
  • C a decrease in wind speed
  • D an increase in humidity

Frage 8

Frage
A celery stalk is placed in a beaker of blue dye. Once the dye reaches the leaves, the stalk is taken out and cut in half. Which diagram shows the appearance of the cut end of the stalk?
Antworten
  • A
  • B
  • C
  • D

Frage 9

Frage
The diagram shows a cross-section through a plant root. Q shows the part that is stained red when the root is placed in water containing a red dye. What is found at Q?
Antworten
  • A guard cells
  • B palisade cells
  • C phloem
  • D xylem

Frage 10

Frage
Some liquid is collected from the xylem in the stem of a plant. What is present in the liquid?
Antworten
  • A cellulose
  • B inorganic ions
  • C starch
  • D sugar

Frage 11

Frage
What is a function of phloem?
Antworten
  • A translocation
  • B transpiration
  • C storage of food
  • D support

Frage 12

Frage
The diagram shows part of the trunk of a small tree with a ring of bark removed. Removing the ring of bark takes away phloem but leaves the xylem intact. What effect will removing the bark have on the two branches?
Antworten
  • A Lower branch = normal growth, leaves normal; Upper branch = normal growth, leaves wilted
  • B Lower branch = normal growth, leaves wilted; Upper branch = normal growth, leaves normal
  • C Lower branch = reduced growth, leaves normal; Upper branch = normal growth, leaves normal
  • D Lower branch = reduced growth, leaves wilted; Upper branch = reduced growth, leaves wilted

Frage 13

Frage
A decrease in which factor normally causes transpiration rate to increase?
Antworten
  • A humidity
  • B light intensity
  • C stomatal opening
  • D temperature

Frage 14

Frage
What is the path of water through a plant?
Antworten
  • A cortex cells → xylem → stomata → roots
  • B root hair → xylem → mesophyll cells → stomata
  • C roots → cortex cells → stomata → phloem
  • D roots → root hair → stomata → xylem

Frage 15

Frage
The diagram shows two shoots at the start of an experiment on transpiration. What are the likely readings on the spring balances after three days?
Antworten
  • A shoot X = 30 g; shoot Y = 30 g
  • B shoot X = 30 g; shoot Y = 25 g
  • C shoot X = 25 g; shoot Y = 30 g
  • D shoot X = 25 g; shoot Y = 25 g

Frage 16

Frage
Which statements about plant transpiration are correct?
Antworten
  • A
  • B
  • C
  • D

Frage 17

Frage
The diagram shows how water is lost from a leaf. By which process is the water lost?
Antworten
  • A osmosis
  • B photosynthesis
  • C translocation
  • D transpiration

Frage 18

Frage

Antworten
  • A guard cells
  • B palisade cells
  • C phloem
  • D xylem

Frage 19

Frage
The graph shows how the rate of transpiration is affected by X. What is X?
Antworten
  • A humidity
  • B light intensity
  • C soil moisture
  • D temperature

Frage 20

Frage
Which two substances are transported in the phloem?
Antworten
  • A amino acids and protein
  • B amino acids and sucrose
  • C protein and starch
  • D starch and sucrose

Frage 21

  • B loss of water vapour from the leaves and stems of a plan
  • C movement of water from the roots to the leaves
