_________46. Copper is a micronutrient that can be found in soil. Copper is important for reproductive growth in plants and plays an
indirect role in chlorophyll production. Which statement correctly describes the interaction that occurs between the root and
the shoot systems of plants to allow reproduction to occur?
a. Copper is produced in the roots when copper-containing compounds are hydrolyzed.
b. Copper that is absorbed by the roots is transported to reproductive tissues by the shoot system.
c. The shoot system stores copper for later use by the roots and the reproductive structures.
d. The shoot system transports copper to the roots after it is taken in through stomata in the leaves.
_________47. Changes in water pressure within guard cells cause the cells to open or close the stoma. This response helps the plant
maintain homeostasis by —
a. stabilizing the plant’s temperature through the evaporation of water
b. regulating the amount of water the plant loses during transpiration
c. allowing oxygen needed for photosynthesis to enter the plant
d. enabling the plant to release more carbon dioxide at night for photosynthesis
