30

- limited resource: space, CO2, sun
39
mesophytes
- a plant needing only a moderate amount of water
- abundant resource: nothing really
- limited resource: water, space, sun
40
xerophytes
- a plant which needs very little water (dessert plant)
- abundant resource: sun, space
- limited resource: water
41
monocots
- plants with one cotyledon/ embryonic leaf

- root vascular bundle: ring
42
dicot
- plants with two or more cotyledon/ embryonic leaves

46
auxin
- regulates size and bed
- inhibits lateral growth
- located in apical meristem (dicots: tip of stem, monocots: base of stem, and all root tips)
47
petiole
- small stock/ leaf stock that joins the leaf to the stem
| - attaches to stem on node
48
phototropism
- auxin diffuses away from the light to the side in the shade
- extra auxin on shape side makes side grow, bending the apical meristem towards the sun
- stronger for shoots
49
posiitve gravitropism
- auxin rushes to side of shade and inhibits growth
- upper side grows longer, thus making roots shoot down into ground
- stronger in roots
50
negative gravitropism
- auxin rushes to shaded side of plant and makes it grow more, making plant shoot back up towards sun
- neg. only in shoots
51
zone of abscission
- usually high auxin in leaf, low ethylene (promotes ripening) in petiole
- when auxin decreases in leaf, ethylene increases and fruit/ flower falls off
52
statistics
- to draw general conclusions from a sample of data
| - tests in difference we see is real or just due to chance
53
p-value
- probability of an observed (or more extreme) result arising by chance, assuming the null hypothesis is true
- ecology: use threshold of 0.05
54
t-test
-compares two categorical groups with quantitative data
55
