Title: In which of the following ways does a root differ from a shoot?
Post by: Moe.S on Mar 31, 2018
In which of the following ways does a root
  differ from a shoot?
 
  a. a root only has apical meristems -- a shoot
  could have both
  b. a root lacks an epidermis- a shoot does not
  lack an epidermis
  c. roots lengthen when cells above the apical
  meristem elongate- in shoots, cell
  elongation below the apical meristem
  causes the shoot to lengthen
  d. in a root the apical meristem at the tip never
  changes its position- in shoots the apical
  meristem does change its position as the
  stem elongates
  e. all of these are differences between roots
  and shoots

Question 2

Apical meristems in lateral buds can give rise
  to all of these structures except
 
  a. branches.
  b. leaves.
  c. flowers.
  d. lateral meristems.
  e. there is no exception--lateral bud apical
  meristems can give rise to all of these
  structures.
