han's final review
Across
- 2. a class of photoreceptor in plants, bacteria and fungi used to detect light
- 3. branched and made of a complex mixture of sugars
- 5. the process of aging in plants
- 8. powerful growth hormone produced naturally by plants
- 11. the turning or bending of a plant or other organism in response to a touch stimulus
- 15. indispensable for plant development and is accompanied by a dramatic growth of lytic vacuoles, which gradually digest cytoplasmic content leading to self-clearance of dying cells
- 17. Formed from Monolignols that are crosslinked by free radicals generated by peroxidase and laccase
- 21. the cells change their phenotypic characteristics as they migrate to the surface and fully differentiate
- 23. made of cellose, skeleton
- 24. an organic compound found in several plants including jasmine
- 25. period in an organism's life cycle when growth, development, and (in animals) physical activity are temporarily stopped
- 27. blue-light receptors controlling a range of responses that serve to optimize the photosynthetic efficiency of plants
- 29. light-mediated development, where plant growth patterns respond to the light spectrum
- 30. organic c compound
- 31. a plant hormone which promotes leaf detachment, induces seed and bud dormancy, and inhibits germination.
- 32. Specialized metabolites Hypersensitive response Systemic acquired resistance Induced systemic resistance
- 33. The xylem conducts water and minerals from the root to the shoot and provides mechanical strength to the plant body
Down
- 1. the critical stage in plant growth and development when. 1) The root must penetrate into the soil so that it can successfully acquire water and nutrients. 2) The shoot must elongate and leaves must expand to begin photosynthetic activity.
- 4. protein that organizes membrane proteins at Casparian strip
- 6. the sprouting of a seed, spore, or other reproductive body, usually after a period of dormancy
- 7. Possibly rheostat-like regulation, Protein-protein interactions
- 9. important plant growth response to the environment that directs shoots upward and roots downward, thereby allowing each organ to reach environments that are adequate for performance of their primary functions
- 10. makes cellulose and microfibril
- 12. Environmental Response Pathogen Attack
- 13. mix of polymers
- 14. Physical Specialized compounds/metabolites
- 16. A large family of compounds with a few biologically active members Identified as the toxin produced by some fungi that caused rice to grow too tall
- 18. are a class of flavoproteins found in plants and animals that are sensitive to blue light
- 19. a class of plant hormones that promote cell division
- 20. UV-B sensing protein in plants and others
- 22. class of polyhydroxylated steroidal phytohormones in plants with similar structures to animals’ steroid hormones, regulate a wide range of physiological processes including plant growth, development and immunity
- 26. are proteins showing loosening activity of plant cell wall
- 28. the natural detachment of parts of a plant, typically dead leaves and ripe fruit
