Document Summary
Week 4 worksheet: phytohormones & meristems & stems. Answer the following questions using the data in the. The auxin will be moved from the stem into the receiver plant. This is due to graph below: the fact that the flow of auxin in a plant grows from apical end to basal end. The auxin will not be moved from the stem to the receiver plant because the cut-out piece of the plant is upside down. Since the basal part is on the other side where the plant is located, auxin won t flow towards the receiver plant. Auxin instead will move away from the receiver plant because auxin flows from the apical to the basal bud. Aba content and stomatal resistance decrease when leaf water potential increases. In most plants, the meristem is at the top (apical) end of the plant. Grasses do this because their meristem tissue is located at the nodes along the stem.
