How does cation exchange affect plants?

a. Cation exchange gives the roots of the plant a negative charge, which allows it to take up water more efficiently.

b. Cation exchange makes cations in the soil more available to plants.

c. Cation exchange makes cations in the soil more available to plants.

d. Cation exchange decreases the loss of water from plants by transpiration.

Which of the following statements about stomata is accurate?

A) Stomata are not important in algae because they do not need CO₂.

B) Stomata, when closed, allow CO₂ to diffuse into plants.

C) Stomata are important in terrestrial plants because they allow CO₂ to diffuse into the plant.

D) Stomata are important in terrestrial plants because they allow the roots to absorb water and nutrients from the soil.

All plants require nitrogen in forms they can absorb through their roots, and that accessible nitrogen is provided by certain soil bacteria. In fact, most soil nitrogen comes from bacterial activity.While many plants rely on the activity of free-living soil bacteria for ammonium ions () and nitrate ions (), some plants form extremely close symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. For example, Rhizobium bacteria (one type of nitrogen-fixing bacteria) take up residence inside the root cells of legume plants, which include peas, soybeans, and clover. In this activity, you will indicate how the legumes and the Rhizobium bacteria are affected by this symbiosis.Drag each phrase to the appropriate bin. If the phrase applies to both plants and bacteria in the legume-Rhizobium relationship, drag it to the "both" bin. If the statement applies to neither plants nor bacteria in the legume-Rhizobium relationship, drag it to the "neither" bin. Note that a bin may remain empty.
