associates. They were studying compounds responsible for the abscission of fruits (cotton). Two compounds were isolated and called abscisin I and abscisin II. Abscisin II is presently called abscisic acid. ABA is a naturally occurring compound in plants. It is a sesquiterpenoid (15-carbon) which is partially produced via a certain pathway (mevalonic pathway) in chloroplasts and other plastids. Because it is sythesized partially in the chloroplasts‚ it makes sense that biosynthesis primarily occurs

Abstract The hypothesis states that plants respire at a faster rate if they are exposed to wind‚ opposed to no wind. This was tested by putting one plant in water in front of a fan and the other plant in water‚ but with no fan. The results showed that the plant in front of the fan transpired more. However‚ since the plant blew cold air it affected the rate of transpiration and altered the experiment. Overall‚ this experiment supports the hypothesis that wind makes plants transpire more.

faced with a Detroit plant that is no longer viable because of underinvestment‚ labour issues‚ and product-process mismatch. This has lead to low sales figures‚ low return‚ and high burden rates (as calculated by the company). The issues at the Detroit plant will be reviewed and options will be presented. A recommendation to address the Detroit plant will be be made based on this review. Issues: Investment in the Detroit plant has lagged significantly from other plants in the corporation.

Issue: The main problem with the two plants‚ Phillips and Crawley is the quality of the twelve types of modules which falls below 95% level and the other issue is regarding the quality acceptance level of all the modules. We have come up with the recommendation which will help to solve the issue of quality problems of all the modules including the twelve types of modules.
