Tropism & Photosynthesis Quiz Review

What is an example of plant

dormancy?

• A tree does not grow in the fall

• A plant loses its leaves and stops all growth in the winter

• A plant developing flowers in the spring

• A seed sprouts above the ground for the first time during spring

Plants cannot move, but they can respond to a stimulus by either growing toward or away from the stimulus. What is this growth behavior in plants called?

• Photosynthesis

• Stimuli

• Response

• Tropism

A Venus Flytrap's leaves will close if you gently rub them with your fingers. Which plant response does this represent?

• Thigmotropism

• Gravitropism

• Hydrotropism

• Phototropism

Plant cells contain a green pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll has a role in the process of photosynthesis. What does chlorophyll do?

• Produces oxygen from glucose

• Absorbs glucose from the storage in the plant

• Absorbs light energy from the sun

• Produces glucose from oxygen

Plant parts respond differently to light. The roots of a plant grow away from the light, while the stems grow toward the light. Which statement best explains these plant responses?

• Roots grow away from light to absorb oxygen, while stems grow toward the light to get rid of water.

• Roots grow away from light into the soil to absorb water, while stems grow toward the light to help photosynthesis.

• Roots grow away from light to release energy, while stems grow toward the light to get energy.

• Roots grow away from light to absorb oxygen, while stems grow toward the light to absorb water.
