12. How do plants change the chemistry of pore water in order to improve nutrient uptake? (5 pts) 13. Please summarize-briefly- what occurs in the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis? (6 pts) a. Light Dependent: i. Inputs: ii. Outputs: b. Light Independent: i. Inputs: ii. Outputs: 14. Please list three different rissue types found in plants and for each one explain its function (9 pts) i. Function: b. i. Function: c. i. Function: 15. Please give one example of each of the following (1 pt each/ 5 pts total a. Non-Vascular Plant: b. Monocot: c. Dicot: d. Gymnosperm: e. Seedless Vascular Plant:

Explanation / Answer

13.

Light dependent reaction:

Input: water, sunlight,ADP, NADP

Output: ATP, NAPDH, oxygen

Light independent reaction

Input: carbon dioxide, ATP, NADPH

Output: Glucose, ADP, NADP

14. Tissue types

Dermal: it forms outermost protective covering of the plant.

Ground: provides for storage, synthesis for plants and gives strength with flexibility to the plant.

Vascular tissue : Provides transport of material and also gives mechanical strength and rigidity to the plant.

15. Non vascular: Algae, moss

Monocot:Maize

Dicot: Apple

Gymnosperm: Pinus,cycas

Swedless vascular plant: Fern, dryopteris
