Fill in the blanks. Word banks are given for each fill in and will be written as (A) starting with the first fill on and moving down to the final fill in as (E).

Word Bank For Each Fill In:

(A) Open Stomata or Closed Stomata or Vascular Bundles or The Palisade Parenchyma

(B) In the wall space of spongy parenchyma or In xylem cells or At the interface between xylem and phloem cells or In phloem cells or In palisade parenchyma cells

(C) In the wall space of spongy parenchyma cells or in the interface between xylem and phloem through stomatal pores or In phloem cells or In xylem cells

(D) Water vapor in air spaces or Fluid in xylem of leaves or Fluid in the xylem of stems or Fluid in teh menisci

(E) In the air spaces between spongy parenchyma or In the boundary layer or int eh atmosphere surrounding the plant

Turgid guard cells are components of Select l Menisci involved in transpiration are found Select Evaporation occurs during transpiration [Select Select is NOT under tension. During transpiration water vapor concentration is highest Select

Solution

The stomatal pores are largest when water is freely available and the guard cells turgid.

(A) Open stomata

A combination of adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension (see below) allow water to climb the walls of small diameter tubes like xylem. This is called capillary action. The U shaped surface formed by water as it climbs the walls of the tube is called a meniscus.

(B) In xylem cells

(C) in the interface between xylem and phloem through stomatal pores

(D) Fluid in xylem of leaves (uses cohesion)

(E) In the air spaces between spongy parenchyma
