QUESTION 1 (MORE THAN ONE ANSWER CAN BE CHOSEN)

Which of the following are plausible pathways for a C atom in a sugar produced via photosynthesis? (You may pick more than one answer)

It ends up in an ADP molecule.

It ends up in a CO2 molecule released from the root of the plant.

It is lost via transpiration from the leaf.

It ends up in a chlorophyll molecule in the leaf.

  

QUESTION2

Which of the following results (on a "per area basis") would you expect for a study of a low-light vs. high-light treatment of the same species of plant?

Leaf of the low-light treated plant has higher respiration and higher maximum photosynthesis rates.

Leaf of the low-light treated plant has higher respiration and lower maximum photosynthesis rates.

Leaf of the high-light treated plant has higher respiration and lower maximum photosynthesis rates.

Leaf of the high-light treated plant has higher respiration and higher maximum photosynthesis rates.

QUESTION 3

In a hardwood, deciduous forest, would you expect an understory spring ephemeral plant (adapted to conditions in the spring before the dominant trees leaf out) to have a higher or lower light compensation point compared to an understory plant that emerges later in the summer? Explain

A-

It ends up in an ADP molecule.

B-

It ends up in a CO2 molecule released from the root of the plant.

C-

It is lost via transpiration from the leaf.

D-

It ends up in a chlorophyll molecule in the leaf.

Explanation / Answer

It ends up in an ADP molecule.

Leaf of the high-light treated plant has higher respiration and higher maximum photosynthesis rates.

3. An understory spring ephemeral plant will have lower light compensation point compared to an understory plant that emerges later in the summer. The reason is that plants growing in shaded environment tend to have lower light compensation point and a lower light saturation points than plants growing in high light environment (which shall be the case with the understory plant that will emerge later in the summer).

1. A-

It ends up in an ADP molecule.
