Answer 5

Thorns represent the modification of an axillary shoot system in which the leaves are reduced and die quickly and the stems are heavily sclerified and grow for only a limited time (determinate growth). Thorns appear to protect the plant against herbivores

Answer 10

Plants growing in soils with a high cadmium concentration will start showing symptoms of poisoning after just a few weeks. Some effects of cadmium phytotoxicity include plant stunting (dwarfing and incomplete development of the plant), leaf rolling, chlorosis (the loss of leaf color) and eventually, plant death.

Answer 22

Deer, black bears, muskrats and rabbits eat the fruit, stems and leaves. For these animals, poison ivy's eye-catching early-fall color will act as a food marker rather than a poison warning." Human reactions to poison ivy are most common in the summertime but can occur at any time of the year
