Plant Secondary metabolites have no known primary functions (such as growth, photosynthesis, reproduction, or other "primary" functions)
What are the products of the secondary metabolism in plants? Terpenoids; Phenolic agents; Flavonoids; Secondary metabolites;...
Plants often store secondary metabolites that function to deter insect herbivores but are also toxic to plant cells. How do plant cells avoid the toxicity of the secondary metabolites and still have the toxins deter insect herbivores?
103-108, What are the 3 major secondary metabolites found in plants, and what are examples of each? Also illustrate their chemistry and list their functions in the space below 109-110. Beginning with the largest taxonomic unit, place the following in correct hierarchical order: phylum, domain, order, genus, species, kingdom, family, elass, subspecies 111-114. What are 5 key evolutionary similarities between the green algae and land plants? 115-117. How do humans use plants? (List 6 uses) We were unable to transcribe...
Indicate what metabolites are produced when the following drug
undergoes Phase I metabolism and Phase II metabolism.
CONHCH2CH2N(CH2CH3)2
-how are sterols considered both primary and secondary metabolites -the photosynthetic carbon reduction cycle is autocatalytic, what does this mean and whats its advantage -describe the relationship between absorption spectrum and action spectrum. how is the action spectrum significant to a plant physiologist?
What role does glutamine play in amino acid metabolism of plants and how is it affected by light?
What physical and chemical traits are characteristics of the microbial environment associated the rhizome for plants? What are the primary ways that carbon and energy flow through that system? Use the four classes of metabolism in your answer and state which class is most dominant and also if all four classes of metabolism are present. Please also include how primary and secondary production, predation, and decomposition/heterotrophy may factor into the rhizome ecosystem.
