Q

What tissues provides the main structural support of the plant?

19
Q

How are the cell walls of the ground tissue Sclerenchyma?

20
Q

Collenchyma provides extra support to the plant, especially in places where

A

The plant is growing

21
Q

How are the cell walls of the ground tissue Collenchyma?

22
Q

What is the function of the ground tissue Parenchyma?

A

It acts as “filler” tissue and make up the bulk of the ground

23
Q

How are the cell walls of the ground tissue Parenchyma?

A

The thinnest of all ground tissue

24
Q

What are the transport tissues within plants?

A

Phloem and xylem

25
What does Phloem transport?
Sugar
26
What does Xylem transport?
Water
27
Charles’ Law states that
Volume and temperature are directly related
28
What are Bryophytes?
Small and short nonvascular plants that grow horizontally
29
Do Bryophytes have roots?
No
30
What are examples of Bryophytes?
Mosses, hornworts and liverworts
31
What are rhizoids?
Small hair-like projections, which help in water absorption and provide minor anchorage
32
The latent phase of a twitch contraction describes the period where
AP spreads over sarcolemma and down the T-tubule
33
What happens once AP goes down T-Tubule?
The sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium into the sarcoplasma
34
Tension in the muscles decreases during the
Relaxation phase
35
The relaxation phase is when the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Pumps Ca2+ into itself
36
The H-zones begin to shrink and myosin binding sites are revealed in the
Contraction phase
37
What secretes calcitonin?
The parafollicular cells of the thyroid
38
Calcitonin functions to
Decrease blood calcium levels
39
Alpha cells secrete
Glucagon
40
Beta cells secrete
Insulin
41
Delta cells secrete
Somatostatin
42
What does LH stimulate?
Ovulation
43
Corpus luteum produces the
Female sex hormones
44
The ΔH°rxn is negative, so the reaction is
Exothermic
