Advanced Plant Biology Quiz

1. What are the 3 major types of permanent tissues?

1) meristematic 2) epidermal 3) cortex

1) dermal2) ground3) vascular

Permanent tissues in plants include dermal, ground, and vascular tissues, which have distinct functions in the plant structure and growth.

Explanation

Permanent tissues in plants include dermal, ground, and vascular tissues, which have distinct functions in the plant structure and growth.

2. What are the essential elements in plants?

Book chart

Soil nutrients

Water

Sunlight

The term 'book chart' seems to be a mistake or a misunderstanding. The correct essential elements in plants are actually sunlight, water, and soil nutrients, which are crucial for their growth and development.

Explanation

The term 'book chart' seems to be a mistake or a misunderstanding. The correct essential elements in plants are actually sunlight, water, and soil nutrients, which are crucial for their growth and development.

3. What are the two major types of angiosperms?

5) horsetail

3) gymnosperm

1) monocot2) eudicot

4) liverwort

Angiosperms are flowering plants. Monocots and eudicots are the two major groups of angiosperms, distinguished by differences in their seed structure and leaf venation. Gymnosperms, liverworts, and horsetails are not types of angiosperms.

Explanation

Angiosperms are flowering plants. Monocots and eudicots are the two major groups of angiosperms, distinguished by differences in their seed structure and leaf venation. Gymnosperms, liverworts, and horsetails are not types of angiosperms.

4. In what pattern do leaves arrange themselves?

- arrangements: spiral, clustered

- arrangements: random, centralized

- arrangements: linear, circular

- arrangements: opposite, alternate,whorled; because the buds have that pattern, the leaves come off in thatpattern

The correct answer describes the common patterns in which leaves arrange themselves based on their buds, forming opposite, alternate, or whorled arrangements.

Explanation

The correct answer describes the common patterns in which leaves arrange themselves based on their buds, forming opposite, alternate, or whorled arrangements.

5. What are the two types of changes that occur in leaves?

1) color changes2) falling off

1) expanding in size 2) becoming transparent

1) growing longer 2) wrinkling

1) turning into flowers 2) developing spots

Leaves undergo color changes as part of the seasonal cycle and eventually fall off when they reach the end of their life cycle.

Explanation

Leaves undergo color changes as part of the seasonal cycle and eventually fall off when they reach the end of their life cycle.
