PSS- Sec-F-Transport

Silicon contributes to plant function mainly by:

Pick C: Cell wall rigidity. Thinking through PSS- Sec-F-Transport step by step rules out the lookalikes and leaves Cell wall rigidity. Skip these: A) Photosynthesis; B) Protein synthesis; D) Ion balance. For hormones and genes, match the molecule or gene to its real role, not a neighboring pathway.

MINERAL Transport+PYQS

Silicon contributes to plants by:

The right choice is B: Cell wall rigidity. In MINERAL Transport, that matches how the process or concept actually works — the other choices mix up related ideas or use the wrong mechanism. Skip these: A) Protein synthesis; C) Nitrogen fixation; D) Sugar transport. A quick check: if an option needs energy, pumps, or the opposite direction of movement, ask whether that really applies.
