Environmental factors affecting the body.

biotic

abiotic

both answers are correct

What effect does light have on a plant?

growth, flowering, fruiting

seed germination

both answers are correct

Light is an environmental factor that determines the life of plants, most of which are photo-autotrophic. The radiant energy of the Sun is the premise of earthly life. Sunlight regulates the growth and development of plants, and can also have a damaging effect. Light is one of the most important factors in the life of a green plant, since it is a source of energy in the process of photosynthesis. It also affects other functions of the plant organism - on its growth, flowering, fruiting   , as well as seed germination. The ratio of plants to light is different, according to this sign, three groups are distinguished: photophilous, shade-loving and shade-tolerant.

The effect of living organisms on plants.

animals feed, pollinate

darken, used as a support

both answers are correct

Animals feed on plants, pollinate them, carry fruits and seeds. Large plants can obscure   young, small. Some plants use others as a support. Microorganisms corrupting   plant residues enrich the soil with humus and minerals.

The effect of plants on the environment.

change the composition of air, soil

fix and protect the soil from destruction

both answers are correct

Plants change the composition of air: moisturize   it is absorbed by carbon dioxide and emit oxygen. Are changing soil composition   - they absorb some substances from it and excrete others into it. Root systems of plants fasten slopes   ravines, hills, river valleys, protecting the soil from destruction. Forest planting protect the fields   from dry winds.

Characteristic features of photophilous plants.

light affects plant shape

light affects the color of the plant: stem, leaf

both answers are correct

Photophilous plants live only in open sunlit places where there is a rather rare vegetation cover. Light has a great influence on the shape of plants. Growing in an open area, as a rule, are low, branched, with a wide crown. Photophilous plants have a characteristic structure of leaves. They are usually small, dense, with shiny thick skin and numerous stomata. In many plants, the leaves are covered with wax coating or hairs, which protects them from direct exposure to sunlight. Well-developed mechanical tissue and root system.

Characteristic features of shade-loving plants.

poorly developed mechanical and conductive tissues

leaf blades are fragile and thin. Stomata on the upper and lower sides of the leaf

both answers are correct

Shady   plants can not stand strong lighting and grow well only in shaded places. These are grassy plants of spruce forests and oak forests. As a rule, leaf blades are fragile and thin. Mechanical and conductive tissues are poorly developed, stomata are located on the upper and lower sides of the leaf. These include herbaceous plants of spruce forests and oak forests: raven eye, double-leafed lane, spindle-tree, and many forest ferns.

Characteristic features of aquatic plants.

slight body surface

powerful root system

no correct answer

Most plants living in water have a very large body surface. They absorb water and substances dissolved in it by the entire surface of the body, and therefore the root system is poorly developed, and sometimes completely absent. There are no stomata on underwater leaves.

Types of plant communities.

forests, meadows, swamps

steppes, tundra

both answers are correct

Vegetation is the totality of plant communities existing in a particular territory. Depending on the predominance of certain types and conditions of existence, plant communities are combined into large groups. Each type of vegetation has its own characteristics, by which it can be distinguished from others. Meadows and steppes   - These are thickets of grass knee-high, waist-high, or taller than human height. Some meadow and steppe grasses go from germination to fruiting and death in one season, others in two, and still others live for years and decades. Swamps   called the community of plants, partially immersed in water and partially protruding from it. They are formed by cereals, sedges, mosses, shrubs. Plants tundra   develop very slowly. Tundra plants are usually stunted - snow covers and bends them. IN deserts where it rains every year, ephemeral communities develop. After spring rains, plants cover the soil with carpet and in 3-8 weeks they manage to grow and bear fruit, and perennials also stock up on nutrients. The size of the ephemera depends on its moisture content - plants that reach 30-39 cm in moisture-rich years and grow up to 3-4 cm in dry years. Some species of desert plants have small, almost invisible leaves or do without them at all - photosynthesis is carried out by the stems . Other plants have large leaves during the wet season and small leaves in the dry season.

Life forms of plants that make up deciduous forest.

first tier: oak, linden, birch

first tier: herbs, bird cherry

first tier: grasses and ferns

Communities of plants do not arise by chance: they develop gradually over many millennia. As a result, different plant species in the community adapt to cohabitation. Layering is most pronounced in forest communities. In the deciduous forest, oaks, linden, birch and other large trees form the first upper tier.

A natural change in plant communities may be caused ...

climate change

soil composition or structure; the vital activity of the plants themselves

both answers are correct

A natural change in plant communities can be caused by changes in the climate, the composition or structure of soils, and the vital activity of the plants themselves. Under the influence of these factors, some plants may appear in the community, while others may disappear. In forest communities, vegetation is also changing. Under the canopy of a birch forest, shade-tolerant spruce trees grow beautifully. Years go by. Spruce grows and occupies the upper tier of the forest. Old birches perish. And young photophilous birches cannot survive - there is too little light for them under the spruce crowns. Gradually there is a change of vegetation in the lower tier. Thus, there is a change of birch forest with spruce.

The ancestors of the kingdom of green plants.

unicellular algae

bacteria

lichens

Seaweed   - the oldest group of lower unicellular and multicellular plants containing chlorophyll and producing organic substances in the process of photosynthesis. Algae appeared on Earth and the Proterozoic - about 2.5 billion years ago.
