Q42 - Matching Plant Morphological Plasticity Responses to Environmental Cues
Plants show morphological plasticity and can change their morphology in response to different environmental conditions. Four figures (A to D) show simplified diagrams of a plant’s typical response to environmental conditions, compared against a standard morphology.
Figure 1.
Using the information and data, determine which of the statements are true or which are false.
matching responses to diagrams. Match the statements (a: response to soil fertilization, b: response to apical damage, c: response to shade condition, d: response to trampling pressure) with the corresponding diagrams (A to D) and choose the appropriate number from the table.
