"ABC"s of Plant hormones
This is the most common natural auxin used in commercial agriculture application.
What is IAA (indole-3-acetic acid)?
In the plant's shoots, Auxin collects on THIS side of the plant causing the cells to elongate resulting in net growth toward the light in a phenomenon know as positive phototropism.
What is shaded side?
Auxin, Gibberillin, Absisic Acid, Cytokinins, and Ethylene are 5 commonly known plant hormones. This plant hormone most closely associated with dormancy and drought tolerance.
What Abscisic Acid?
This type of alcohol is used to clean and sterilize lab desk and benches.
What is Ethanol?
This plant hormone, known by the abbreviation GA, is known to impact stem elongation synergistically with Auxin
What is Gibberillic Acid?
Abscisic acid is a stress hormone involved in the signalling of stomata closure. It is also known to inhibit growth in this part of the plant
What is the shoot?
Plants growing with gravity and toward the center of the earth are experiencing this type of geotropism
What is positive geotropism?
Long pants, long sleeves, lab coats, closed toed shoes, and hair pulled back is a representation of this.
What is proper lab attire?
NAA, a synthetic auxin hormone, is the abbreviation for this plant hormone compound we used in the lab
What is Naphthaleneacetic Acid?
In Negative phototropism, related to root growth, auxin inhibits cell division. This is because auxin accumulates on THIS side of the root, inhibiting growth, and causing the root to grow away from the light.
What is the shaded side?
IBA, is the abbreviation for this synthetic auxin hormone
What is Indolebutyric Acid?
Auxin promotes growth by promoting cell elongation, this plant hormone promotes growth by cell division in the root and the shoot of the plant
What is Gibberellic Acid?
In addition to its impact on stem elongation, Gibberellin is used by the seed to mobilize food sources during this period of growth
What is germination?
Used vinyl gloves only go in this receptacle...
What is the biohazardous waste container?
According to Acid Growth Theory, this plant hormone, which is acidic, is degraded by the hot sun, causing cell-wall loosening, protons (H+ ions) are pumped into the cell plasma membrane becoming more acidic, and allowing the cell to take up more water and become turgid resulting in cell elongation, flows mostly to the shaded side of plants.
What is Auxin?
These structures on plant leaves open and close when subjected to outside forces.
What are stomata?
This hormone functions as a stress hormone in plants by signalling the closing of the stomata, and aids in fruit ripening.
What is Cytokinins?
You would need this number of micro-liters of stock solution from a 5.5 M stock solution of IAA natural auxin to make 42 ml of 0.025 M concentration IAA solution (hint: 1 mililiter=1000 microliters
What is 190 microliters?
