|
|
|
1.
|
a
transport protein in the plasma membranes of a plant or animal cell that specifically facilitates the
diffusion of water across the membrane
|
|
|
2.
|
a
physiological cycle of about 24 hours, present in all eukaryotic organisms, that persists even in the
absence of external cues
|
|
|
3.
|
the
production of ATP using the energy of hydrogen-ion gradients across membranes to phosphorylate
ADP
|
|
|
4.
|
the
coupling of the “downhill” diffusion of one substance to the “uphill” transport
of another against its own concentration gradient
|
|
|
5.
|
the
innermost of the three primary germ layers in animal embryos
|
|
|
6.
|
in
plants, the nonliving continuuum formed by the extracellular pathway provided by the continuous
matrix of cell walls
|
|
|
7.
|
the
exudation of water droplets caused by root pressure in certain plants
|
|
|
8.
|
a
unit of pressure equivalent to 10 atmospheres of pressure
|
|
|
9.
|
mutualistic associations of plant roots and fungi
|
|
|
10.
|
the
diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane
|
|
|
11.
|
the
force directed against a cell wall after the influx of water and the swelling of a walled cell due to
osmosis
|
|
|
12.
|
plants adapted to arid climate
|
|
|
13.
|
in
plants, the continuum of cytoplasm connected by plasmodesmata between cells
|
|
|
14.
|
a
type of mycorrhizae that unlike ectomycorrhizae, do not have a dense mantle ensheathing the root;
instead, microscopic fungal hyphae extend from the root into the soil
|
|
|
15.
|
elements required by plants and animals in relatively large amounts
|
|
|
16.
|
a
type of mycorrhizae in which the mycelium forms a dense sheath, or mantle, over the surface of the
root; hyphae extended from the mantle into the soil, greatly increasing the surface area for water
and mineral absorption
|
|
|
17.
|
elements required by plants and animals in very small amounts
|
|
|
18.
|
an
emerging, non-destructive technology that seeks to cheaply reclaim contaminated areas by taking
advantage of the remarkable ability of some plant species to extract heavy metals and other
pollutants from the soil and to concentrate them in easily harvested portions of the
plant
