Plant Physiology

2. The degree of acidity or alkalinity is expressed in these units.
3. Units of energy that composes particles of light.
5. Movement of molecules from a high concentration to an area of low concentration until equilibrium is attained.
9. NUTRIENT Type of nutrient that includes Boron, Calcium, Copper, Iron, Manganese, Nickel, Sulfur, and Zinc which also cannot move from a plant part to another.
11. MEDIUM In this medium, pH units are greater than 7.
13. MEDIUM In this medium, pH units are less than 7.
14. RESPIRATION It's a combination of hexose sugar and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water and ATP.
16. Process that breaks the stored food materials if the organism lacks oxygen or under anaerobic condition.
19. Leaf that covers embryonic leaves and shoots the apex of the seedlings with a function of protecting young leaves.

1. OF LIGHT A bending light caused by passing through light from a medium to another medium of a different density.
2. In green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.
4. DORMANCY Even when oxygen, water, light and temperature are available, it is a condition where the seed does not germinate.
6. A process that cuts or breaks seed coat.
7. These are the movements of plant parts due to light or gravity.
8. VIABILITY When plant factors are favorable for germination, the embryo will germinate under this condition.
10. NUTRIENT Type of nutrient that includes Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Chlorine, Magnesium, and Molybdenum.
12. REGULATOR An artificial synthesized regulator of plants (e.g. 2,4 dichlorophenoxy acetic acid or 2,4 - D).
15. QUOTIENT Value that is important to determine the initial substrate's nature.
17. Substances that can either promote or reduce growth.
18. A pigment essential for germination which can be activated with a red light.
