Question

whena root is placed on its side, what happens to the amyloplasts in the root cap cells?
a) they movey away from the direction of gravity
b) they settle in the direction of gravity
c) they move into the root apical meristem
d) they are digested by amylase
e) they move into a root hair

Answer 1

@misssunshinexxoxo can you help me with that question ?

Answer 2

Answer 30

i should have read it better
but your answer is B and i will explain it to you

Answer 31

Geotropism (also known as gravitropism) is a turning or growth movement by a plant or fungus in response to gravity. It is a general feature of all higher and many lower plants as well as other organisms. Charles Darwin was one of the first to scientifically document that roots show positive gravitropism and stems show negative gravitropism. That is, roots grow in the direction of gravitational pull (i.e., downward) and stems grow in the opposite direction (i.e., upwards). This behavior can be easily demonstrated with any potted plant. When laid onto its side, the growing parts of the stem begin to display negative gravitropism, growing (biologists say, turning; see tropism) upwards. Herbaceous (non-woody) stems are capable of a small degree of actual bending, but most of the redirected movement occurs as a consequence of root or stem growth in a new direction.

Answer 32

SO YOUR ANSWER IS B

Answer 33

ok thank you so much

Answer 34

can i ask you another question?

Answer 35

Why dont the algae a group of organisms fixes nitrogen?

Answer 39

Wait
re-put your question i think you typed it wrong
ill help you

Answer 40

the question is what group of organism fixes nitrogen? i answer the question is bacteria. my teacher wants me to explain why the algae did not the grup of that organism

Answer 41

Answer 45

Microorganisms
is bacteria

Answer 46

so................. let me explain it

Answer 47

Hopefully this helps
Nitrogen fixation, natural and synthetic, is essential for all forms of life because nitrogen is required to biosynthesize basic building blocks of plants, animals and other life forms, e.g., nucleotides for DNA and RNA and amino acids for proteins. Therefore, nitrogen fixation is essential for agriculture and the manufacture of fertilizer. It is also an important process in the manufacture of explosives (e.g. gunpowder, dynamite, TNT, etc.). Nitrogen fixation occurs naturally in the air by means of lightning.[2][3]

Biological nitrogen fixation can include conversion to nitrogen dioxide. All biological nitrogen fixation is done by way of nitrogenase metalo-enzymes which contain iron, molybdenum, or vanadium. Microorganisms that can fix nitrogen are prokaryotes (both bacteria and archaea, distributed throughout their respective kingdoms) called diazotrophs. Some higher plants, and some animals (termites), have formed associations (symbiosis) with diazotrophs.
