Many microbial pathogens of plants have effectors that increase the activity of plant H+-ATPase pumps.
How does activating the plant pump help the microbes infect a plant?

Plant cells have a vacuole membrane-associated H+ ATPase that pumps protons out of the cytosol and into the lumen of the vacuole in order to acidify this organelle. What would you expect be the net effect of this pump on the resting membrane potential across the PLASMA MEMBRANE (charge in the cytosol) in plant cells? A. The membrane potential is not affected by H+ transport. B. The membrane potential would become more positive. C. The membrane potential would become more...
Plant Chemical Adaptations Physical adaptations are one way plants have become well-adapted to specific environmental conditions. For example, cacti have spines in place of leaves to prevent water loss in the arid conditions of the desert, and deciduous trees lose their leaves in the fall to survive cold weather conditions over the winter. Chemical adaptations are another means for plant protection. Many plants produce toxic or noxious compounds to protect themselves from insects or animals that would eat them, to...
1.)When plants bend toward the light in response to auxin, the signal response includes… (a) only an intracellular response (b) only an intercellular response (c) both an intracellular and an intercellular response (d) magic 2.)The production of auxin is mediated by which wavelength of light? (a) blue (b) green (c) red (d) far-red 3.)Many plants are categorized as “short day” or “long day” plants. The environmental factor that determines the time of year when these plants flower is (a) a...
How many distinct fluorinated isomers does difluoronaphthalene (C₁₀H₆F₂)have?
The gardening season is in full swing and many nurseries are planning how they will be able to meet customer demands over the next few months. PlantaLot is a nursery that specializes in cultivating starter tomato plants for distribution at local garden centres. They would like to develop a production schedule to determine the number of starter tomato plants that will need to be cultivated over the months of July, August, and September. Based on the previous year’s sales, demand...
How many chemically distinct protons does the following compound have? Number chemically distinct protons H CI CI CH3 H3C
2. Given the set S-ta,b,c,d,e,f,g,h) a) How many subsets does S have? b) How many subsets have exactly 5 elements? c) A subset is randomly chosen for the collection of all possible a) b) c) subsets. What is the probability that it contains exactly 3 elements? d) A subset is chosen at random from all the subsets. d) What is the probability that it contains the element a?
You are asked to determine whether an unknown tissue specimen comes from a plant or an 3. animal. Closer inspection with an electron microscope reveals that the cells are connected by small openings lined by extensions of the cell membrane and containing tubules connecting the endomembrane your observations? systems of adjacent cells. Which of the following conclusions can you draw from a. The openings are plasmodesmata, so the tissue must come from a plant. b. The openings are plasmodesmata, so...
Welcome to our plant sciences department here at TransBiol It's great to have you as an intern. I'm the lead scientist of a team developing new herbicides to use against invasive plant species. The team has been really swamped with work, so it'll be great to have some help analyzing all the data we're collecting. Since it's your first day, a great way to get started with any research project is to brush up on the background knowledge you'll need...
Since early Roman days, people have used greenhouses to grow plants—particularly to enjoy fruits and vegetables out of season. But not until the 1990s did greenhouses begin to gain popularity in the United States. The timing couldn’t be better. The amount of farmable land per capita in the world continues to shrink, and over the next 50 years, world population is expected to increase by 3 billion. At the same time, economists estimate the demand for farm products will double....
