â Blood viscosity â Total blood vessel length â Blood vessel diameter Resistance â¢ Factors that remain relatively constant: â Blood viscosity â¢ The stickiness of blood due to formed elements and plasma proteins â¢ Increased viscosity = increased resistance â Blood vessel length â¢ Longer vessel = greater resistance encountered
Jasmonic acid (JA) is derived from the fatty acid linolenic acid. It is a member of the jasmonate class of plant hormones. It is biosynthesized from linolenic acid by the octadecanoid pathway.
Abscisic acid, or ABA, generally inhibits other hormones, such as the auxin IAA. It was originally thought to promote abscission, hence its name. Botanists now know that ethylene in the main abscission hormone. ABA helps to bring about dormancy in a plant's buds and maintains dormancy in its seeds.he auxin causes the cells on the shaded side to elongate more than the cells on the illuminated side. As a result, the shoot bends toward the light and exhibits positive phototropism. In some plant stems, phototropism is not caused by auxin presence or movement.
