in plants.
Answers
Answer:
UVB radiation affects the physiological and developmental processes of plants. Despite mechanisms to reduce or repair these effects and an ability to adapt to increased levels of UVB, plant growth can be directly affected by UVB radiation.
Indirect changes caused by UVB (such as changes in plant form, how nutrients are distributed within the plant, timing of developmental phases and secondary metabolism) may be equally or sometimes more important than damaging effects of UVB. These changes can have important implications for plant competitive balance, herbivory, plant diseases, and biogeochemical cycles.
Answer:
may cause mutations and change in rate of photosynthesis
Explanation:
due to high radiation every living might suffer mutation in dna sequence while cell division , in humans it may also lead to skin cancer and skin burn , while as we know that the plant do photosynthesis in the range of visible light , so it would be difficult for a plant to do photosynthesis in such a condition ....,
