Here's your shmoop du jour, brought to you by SAM.

00:07

We all know he's the one who really saved Middle-Earth.

00:19

Which definition of the SAM is most likely to be agreed upon by both scientists?

00:25

And here are your potential answers...

00:31

Uh oh. This question is asking for us to find something a

00:33

couple of scientists actually agree on.

00:37

Not gonna be easy. These two seem to be the stubborn sort...

00:40

Well, first let's get rid of option C.

00:42

SAM may or may not be the name of one of the scientists...but we will never know.

00:47

We can get rid of D because the beginning of Paragraph 1

00:49

says that SAM is a region of the stem, not a stress.

00:53

And... why don't we get rid of B as well because last time we checked,

00:56

hormones are not the same thing as regions.

00:59

So, that leaves us with A... the SAM is the region of the plant where rapid growth occurs

01:04

to generate new leaves and flowers.

01:06

Sounds like a pretty close match to the definition of SAM in paragraph 1.

01:09

So A's our answer.

01:10

And yes...

01:11

A is our preciousssss...
