The dicot stem is characterised by the presence of conjoint, collateral and open vascular bundles, with a strip of cambium between the xylem and phloem. The vascular bundles are arranged in the form of a ring, around the centrally-located pith. The ground tissue is differentiated into the collenchyma, parenchyma, endodermis, pericycle and pith. Medullary rays are present between the vascular bundles.
Solution Image
The monocot stem is characterised by conjoint, collateral and closed vascular bundles, scattered in the ground tissue containing the parenchyma. Each vascular bundle is surrounded by sclerenchymatous bundle-sheath cells. Phloem parenchyma is absent and water-containing cavities are present.

ATP is synthesized from ADP, , and a proton on the matrix side of the inner mitochondrial membrane. We will refer to the matrix side as the "inside" of the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM).(a) transport from the outside of the IMM into the matrix drives this process. The inside the matrix is 8.2 , and the outside is more acidic by units. Assuming the IMM membrane potential is (inside negative), calculate for the transport of of across the IMM into the matrix at .(b) Assume three mol must be translocated to synthesize one mol ATP by coupling of the following reactions:Write the overall reaction for ATP synthesis coupled to transport [and use this equation for part (c)]:(c) Assume three must be translocated to synthesize one mol ATP as described in part (b) above. Given the following steady-state concentrations: ATP and , the membrane potential (inside negative), and the values in part (a), calculate the steady-state concentration of at when .

Texts: You are testing blood glucagon levels in normal mice and a transgenic (Tg) strain of mice. The Tg mice have a modified gene that codes for glucagon, and that modified gene is regulated by dietary Zn++ levels. If the Tg mice are fed a special diet with elevated Zn++ levels, they are unable to make or secrete glucagon. On a normal diet, the Tg mice make and secrete glucagon similar to the normal mice. 16. In normal mice, what do you expect to see with respect to glucagon concentration in the blood? Assume the mice are provided with food every six hours, and they consume the entire meal at each feeding. Circle the one best choice. a) Blood glucagon levels would rise for about 30 minutes after eating and would decrease over the next hour or two. b) Blood glucagon levels would drop immediately after eating but would rise after several hours without food. c) Blood glucagon levels would remain very consistent throughout the day due to homeostasis.
