Product of photosynthesis is transported...

Product of photosynthesis is transported from the leaves to various parts of the plants and stored in some cell before being utilised. What are the cells/tissues that store them ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Food is stored in roots, stem or in specific type of parenchymatous. Cells located in its conversions, polysaccharide that is called starch occurs in that form.

    What are the cells that make the leaves curl in plants during water stress?

    Take a freshyl plucked leaf of Rhoeo. Strech and break it by applying pressure. While breaking it. Keep it stretched gently so that some peel or skin projects out from the cut. Remove this peel put it in a petri dish filled with water. Add a few drops of safranim. Wait for a couple of minutes and then transfer in onto a slide. Gently place a cover slip over it. Observe under microscope. Observation : A peel of Rhoeo leaf if mounted on the slide and observed under a microscope, it reveals the structure of a leaf. The cells of epidermis and stomata are seen when observed. Structure of a leaf : Outermost layer of the leaf is made - up of single layered cells called epidermis. Epidermis layer does not have intercellular spaces. The cells are flat, with outer and side walls thicker than the inner wall. Small pores, i.e., stomata are seen in the epidermal layer. Stomata help in transpiration and gaseous exchange. Desert plants have thicker epidermis for protection. In dry habitats, water loss is the critical problem. The entire surface of the plant is therefore covered over by epidermis. Aerial parts of the plant are covered by epidermal cells. They secrete water - resistant, waxy layer for the purpose of protection. Epidermal cells also protect the plant from mechanical injury and parasitic invasion of fungi. Think about which gas may be required for photosynthesis.

    A circus wishes to develop a new clown act. Fig. (1) shows a diagram of the proposed setup. A clown will be shot out of a cannot with velocity v_(0) at a trajectory that makes an angle theta=45^(@) with the ground. At this angile, the clown will travell a maximum horizontal distance. The cannot will accelerate the clown by applying a constant force of 10, 000N over a very short time of 0.24s . The height above the ground at which the clown begins his trajectory is 10m . A large hoop is to be suspended from the celling by a massless cable at just the right place so that the clown will be able to dive through it when he reaches a maximum height above the ground. After passing through the hoop he will then continue on his trajectory until arriving at the safety net. Fig (2) shows a graph of the vertical component of the clown's velocity as a function of time between the cannon and the hoop. Since the velocity depends on the mass of the particular clown performing the act, the graph shows data for serveral different masses. If the clown's mass is 80 kg , what initial velocity v_(0) will have as he leaves the cannot?
