Question

A student observes that a plant has droopy leaves and stems and infers that the rate of photosynthesis has slowed in the plant. Which statement provides evidence to support the student's inference?

Answer 1

Answer: The question is incomplete and the options are not given, here are the options from another websites.

A. The water pressure in the plant's vacuole is low, and without water, the chloroplasts

cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.

O

B. The water pressure in the plant's ribosomes is low, and without water, the chloroplasts

cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.

O

C. The water pressure in the plant's vacuole is low, and without water, the mitochondria

cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.

D. The water pressure in the plant's ribosomes is low, and without water, the

mitochondria cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.

With which cellular process are ribosomes directly involved?

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a plants vacuole has no pressure and water, the leaves and stems will drop because vacuole is an organelle that serve as storage for food nutrients and water . When a plant has no water for a long period of time, the vacuole will lose water, which will make the cell to lose shape, and the leaves and stems will wilts and drop ,and this make the mitochondria not to be able to convert chemical energy in glucose using carbondioxide and water to Energy or ATP because there is no supply of water or there is water lose.

Answer 2

The water pressure in the plant's vacuole is low, and without water, the chloroplasts cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The water pressure in the plant's vacuole is low, and without water, the chloroplasts cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.
• The water pressure in the plant's ribosomes is low, and without water, the chloroplasts cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.
• The water pressure in the plant's vacuole is low, and without water, the mitochondria cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.
• The water pressure in the plant's ribosomes is low, and without water, the mitochondria cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.

The correct answer would be that the water pressure in the plant's vacuole is low, and without water, the chloroplasts cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis generally requires water as one of its reactants in the formation of carbohydrates for plant nutrition.

`6CO_2 + 6H_20 --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2`

The process takes in the chloroplast of green plants. Without adequate water which is usually stored in the vacuoles of plant cells, the conversion of water to carbohydrates would reduce or cease totally.
