Textbook Question
Chapter 48.2, Problem 1CS
Core Skill: Connections Leukocytes are part of the immune system of animals. Are immune defenses unique to animals? (Refer back to Figures 37.17 through 37.19 for help.)
Figure 37.17 Plant responses to herbivore attack. (1) Leaf damage induces defensive responses such as the release of volatile compounds. (2a) These compounds trigger defenses in undamaged parts of the same plant. (2b) Such volatile compounds may also induce defenses in neighboring plants, which then become less vulnerable to herbivores.
Figure 37.19 Systemic acquired resistance to pathogen attack.

In order to attach the new skin appropriately, the surgeon needs the new patch to have at least 1.5cm of overlap with existing skin on each side. What is the area of the smallest patch the surgeon can use? How much of this area will end up overlapping with existing skin?arrow_forward
- Which of the following are the correct order of steps needed for guard cells to respond to ligth? Select one: O a. Light hits guard cells, guard cells actively pump potassium and chloride out, water follows the ions out(lower water potential), guard cells lose water and open O b. Light hits guard cells, guard cells actively pump potassium and chloride out, water follows the ions out(lower water potential), guard cells lose water and close O c. Light hits guard cells, guard cells actively pump protons out, protons escort chloride ions in, water follows the ions (lower water potential), guard cells become turgid and open O d.

Patients with diseases such as heart disease or Alzheimer’scould have their own skin cells reprogrammed to become iPS cells. Once procedures have been developed for converting iPS cells into heart or nervoussystem cells, the patients’ own iPS cells might be used to treat their disease.When organs are transplanted from a donor to a diseased recipient, the recipient’s immune system may reject the transplant, a dangerous condition. Wouldusing iPS cells be expected to carry the same risk? Why or why not? Giventhat these cells are actively dividing, undifferentiated cells, what risks mightthis procedure carry?arrow_forward
