The uptake of the auxin, indole acetic acid (or IAA), by suspension cultures of Parthenocis-
sus sp. is nearly zero order at 1 nmol/mg dry cell weight-min. The diffusivity of IAA in water
is
Beads of calcium alginate are most conveniently made as spheres with a
4-mm diameter. Assume the beads are made 25% by volume of plant cells. Assume the plant
cells are 90% water and that the diffusivity of IAA in the gel is the same as in water. If the ex-
ternal concentration is maintained at 2 mmol, will IAA penetrate to the center of the bead?
