Functions of Components of Plant Cells Practice Exercise 3

A school grew fast-growing cabbage. One plant developed curled leaves and didn’t grow tall like the others. Suggest how the nucleus might be responsible for this difference. (2 marks)

Apart from controlling cell activities, explain how the nucleus plays a role in heredity and plant growth. (1 mark)

A group of students grew two sets of bean plants. One group placed the plants near a sunny window, and the other placed theirs in a dim classroom. After two weeks, the plants near the window looked healthier. Explain which cell structure was affected by the light difference and how this influenced plant health. (2 marks)
