Question

Boron helps plants in
A. Sugar transport
B. Activation of enzymes
C. Functioning as enzyme cofactor
D. Photosynthesis

Answer 1

Hint: Boron is important for cell walls of the plants.It is used with calcium in cell wall synthesis and is essential for cell division for creating the new plant cells.

Complete step by step answer:
Boron helps with fruit and seed development, pollination because the high reproductive growth area is much higher. Translocation of carbohydrates and sugars,formation of proteins, nitrogen metabolism, regulation of hormone levels and transportation of potassium to stomata helps regulate internal water balance are the several functions of boron. Boron helps in transporting sugars from plant roots and reduce the attraction and colonization of mycorrhizal fungi.
Boron helps in controlling the transport of sugars in plants. It is necessary to seed development and cell division. The deficiency caused due to boron is very common in plants. Boron deficiency in plants is the most common.
It plays an important role in the diverse range of functions of plants that includes stability and cell wall formation, maintenance of functional and structural integrity of biological membranes, movement of sugar or energy in to growing parts of plants and pollination and set.Boron can be found in raisins, non-citrus fruits, nuts, kale and spinach.

Thus, Option A is correct.

Note:
Boron is very much important for the normal development of root nodules in legumes such as soybeans, and peanuts. Boron promotes proper growth and also regulates plant hormones. Flower production and retention, pollen tube germination and elongation and seed and fruit development increases by the boron.
