Plant Responses: Hormones, Ripening, and Phototropism
https://3speak.tv/watch?v=mes/kvneyevh In this video I discuss how plants respond to various stimuli such as water loss, air chemistry, herbivores, and the position of the Sun. Plants produce hormones to signal to other parts to respond, including when to begin the ripening process for their fruits. Some fruits ripen in a climacteric phase as ethylene gas production and CO2 rapidly increase, while non-climacteric fruit gradually decrease in gas production. Plants defend themselves from herbivores by
