28. Nerve impulses are transported from neuron’s
dendrites (many short branches) to the end of its
axon. And then nerve impulses go to the next
neuron.
In the picture below you see some neurons with
their dendrites and axons. At the right of the picture
there are three directions where nerve impulses may
go (an arrow near each neuron shows how nerve
impulses move).
For questions 31-32 read this text:
Tropisms are the directional movements of plants in
response to stimuli. The direction of the tropism
movement is determined by a stimulus. If the
movement is toward the stimulus, the tropism is
called positive. If the movement is against the
stimulus, the tropism is called negative.
31. What kind of process you can see in the stem of
this plants:

If neuron A receives nerve impulses, in which

direction these impulses will go?
A) Positive phototropism
A) I
B) Negative phototropism
B) II
C) Positive geotropism
C) III
D) Negative geotropism
D) I and II
E) Positive chemotropism
E) II and III
32. Many plants begin flowering in certain
photoperiod. What is a photoperiod?
A) the level of rainfall
29. Look at the picture.
B) optimal temperature of air
C) height above sea level
D) the intensity of photosynthesis
E) the time between sunrise and sunset

33. Nastic movements are non-directional

movements of plants. In this picture you can see a
Mimosa plant closing its leaves (in the left - leaves
are open, in the right - leaves are closed). This
process is called thygmonasty.
