2.

In what conditions is ABA released? (Pick 2)

a)

Low Salinity

b)

High Salinity

c)

Low Water

d)

High Water

3.

What cells control the opening of stomata?

(a)  

4.

What process causes the guard cells to swell and open the stomata?

a)

Diffusion

b)

Osmosis

c)

Active Transport

d)

Facilitated diffusion

5.

Is ABA Lipid Soluble?

a)

Yes

b)

No

6.

To open the stomata, what is the first step that happens in the guard cells?

a)

K+ inwards channels in the guard cells open

b)

H+ ions are actively transported out of the guard cell

c)

Water rushes into the guard cells by osmosis

d)

A water potential inside the guard cell lowers.

7.

To open the stomata, after H+ ions are actively transported out of the guard cell, what is the next step that happens in the guard cells?

a)

K+ inwards channels in the guard cells open

b)

H+ ions are actively transported out of the guard cell

c)

Water rushes into the guard cells by osmosis

d)

A water potential inside the guard cell lowers.

8.

Why does water move into the guard cell when opening the stomata?

a)

There is a decrease in water potential due to the build up of K+ ions

b)

There is an increase in water potential due to the build up of K+ ions

c)

H+ ions have been actively transported out of the guard cell

9.

How does ABA travel from the root to the guard cells?

a)

In the xylem

b)

In the pholem

c)

Through diffusion

10.

Where does ABA act upon the guard cell?

a)

It diffuses into the guard cell and makes ROS

b)

It links to a receptor on the guard cell membrane

c)

It moves through a K+ channel

d)

It is actively transported into the guard cell

11.

When ABA binds to a receptor on the guard cell it causes _______ _______ and other Reactive Oxygen Species to be made?

a)

Hydrogen

b)

Hydrogen Oxide

c)

Hydrogen Peroxide

d)

Calcium ions

12.

Hydrogen Peroxide (an ROS) causes what ions to enter the cytoplasm?

a)

Calcium

b)

Potassium

c)

Ca-

d)

Hydrogen

13.

When ROS causes Calcium ions to enter the cytoplasm, where do they come from? (select 2)

a)

Outside the cell

b)

The Vacuole

c)

Break down of ROS

d)

Chloroplasts

14.

What does ROS inhibit?

a)

K+ inwards channels

b)

H+ Pumps

c)

K+ outwards channels

d)

Ca+ channels

15.

(ABA sequence inside the cell) The rise in Ca ions causes negative ions such as Cl- to leave the cell. What does this do to the cell?

a)

Polarises the membrane

b)

Depolarises the membrane

16.

When ABA acts upon a guard cell, what happens to inwards and outwards K+ channels?

a)

Inwards K+ channels open

b)

Inwards K+ channels close

c)

Outwards K+ channels open

d)

Outwards K+ channels close
