distance moved by the pigment from its original position B= distance moved by solvent from the same position. *Round Rf values to 2 decimal places CONCLUSION: We used paper chromatography to separate the pigments found in spinach. Since plants use several different pigments to capture light energy for the light dependent reaction in photosynthesis, we expected that we would see several different bands of pigments on our chromatography paper. As the data in Table 1 indicates, we obtained

Exercise 28 1. Rhizoids serve to anchor the plant to the substrate and absorb water and minerals. Also, the rhizoid attaches the gametophyte to the substratum and facilitates the absorption of minerals and water. Anchorage + absorption. Rhizoids are nonphotosynthetic and anchor the protonema to the substratum. 2. Each pore leads into an air chamber containing columns of photosynthetic cells and facilitates in gas exchange. Unlike the stomata of vascular plants which close in dry weather, the air pores

unicellular genera such as Chlorella and the diatoms to multicellular forms such as the giant kelp, a large brown alga that may grow up to 50 meters in length. Most are autotrophic and lack many of the distinct cell and tissue types found in land plants such as stomata, xylem and phloem. The largest and most complex marine algae are called seaweeds, while the most complex freshwater forms are the Charophyta, a division of algae that includes Spirogyra and the stoneworts. There is no generally accepted

conditions for growing healthy, dense turf. Algae are unicellular or multicellular threadlike green plants that form a thin dense green scum over the soil surface. This scum forms a tough black crust when dry which acts as a barrier impeding the entrance of water and nutrients into the soil. Algae are competitive in compacted, waterlogged soils and during warm, sunny, humid conditions. Mosses are green plants with leaves arising from all sides of a central axis. Mosses may grow erect or prostrate. They

1. Where should the plants be located and what degree of flexibility should be built into each? What capacity should each plant have? The plants should be located in every regional market they serve, preferably in non-seismic zone. In case a region has more than 2 plants, they should be built in geographically and climatically opposite places. Flexibility of these plants should be guided by Toyota’s global complementation strategy that allows plants to serve markets that are prospering
