1.<\/span> What is a meristem?<\/span><\/p>\n

2.<\/span> What biological process takes place at meristem sites within a plant?<\/span><\/p>\n

3.<\/span> Copy the followng statements into your homework jotter, arranging them into the correct sequence to show how unspecialised cells become a functional part of a plant. The first one has been done for you!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. New unspecialised cells become available at the meristems, the site of mitosis.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n
  2. <\/span>The cycle continues for growth and regeneration purposes.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n
  3. They then form part of a permanent tissue which performs a particular role within the plant.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n
  4. <\/span>These cells become elongated and undergo vacuolation.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n
  5. <\/span>They become specialised (differentiated) to perform a particular function.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    6. A bean seed germinated and grew a root. <\/span><\/span>The root was marked with waterproof ink at 3mm intervals.<\/span> <\/span>The diagram below shows the bean when it was first marked and 48 hours later.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Unit<\/a><\/p>\n

    a)<\/span> What was the increase in root length during the 48 hours it was marked?<\/span><\/p>\n

    b)<\/span> Which one of the following statements correctly describes the growth of the root?<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Unit<\/a><\/p>\n

    After a further two days growth, the root the spaces between the marks were measured and recorded as shown in the table below<\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Unit<\/a> c) Present the data as a bar graph.<\/span><\/p>\n

    d) Draw 2 conclusions from the data.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    7. The diagram below shows a magnified root tip. The diagram is divided into three regions, X, Y and Z. One cell from each region is shown.<\/p>\n

    \"Unit<\/a><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    a) Cells from region Y divide by mitosis. Which part of a cell controls cell division?<\/p>\n

    b) The cell shown from region Y is dividing. Which of the following cells shows the cell during the next stage of mitosis?<\/p>\n

    \"Unit<\/a><\/p>\n

    c) Cells from region X swell as water diffuses into them. Describe the difference in water concentration between the inside and outside of the cell.<\/p>\n

    d) What word is used to describe the diffusion of water into a cell?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
