Plants love water. Ideally, their cells are bulging with water. For plants to achieve this bulge, they have evolved very clever adaptations. Plant roots are made up of cells with semi-permeable membranes (like all cells). When water levels around the roots are low (like in a drought), some plants break up a sugar molecule called sucrose into two smaller sugar molecules (2 single-sugar molecules bonded together). Below shows the roots before sucrose is broken down, and after sucrose is broken down. Explain why the plant roots would take in more water after the plant has turned 1000 sucrose molecules into 2000 glucoses. Use the terms osmosis, concentration gradient, hypertonic, hypotonic.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
