BIOL 1001 : FINAL EXAM
Document Summary
Variations on mendel"s theme: incomplete dominance, polygenic traits, & Co2 + h20 + energy from the sun = C6 h12 o6 + 02 = carbohydrate glucose; made through photosynthesis. A -> b -> c -> d -> e. Chloroplast located in mesophyll cell, green color. Leaf structure - upper epidermis up top, mesophyll cells in the middle, lower epidermis in the bottom. Stoma/stomata consists of two cells that allow the leaf to open a hole in the bottom so that the plant can control water loss; also a main way that co2 can get into the leaf for photosynthesis. Opens and closes in response to the internal pressure of two sausage- shaped guard cells that surround it. When the guard cell is filled with water if becomes turgid, the outer wall balloons outward, causing the stomata to open cells become turgid and the stomata opens. Thylakoids hollow disk shaped structure; where photosynthesis takes place; stack.
