The descriptive term for plants that are sturcturally adapted to withstand protracted dry conditions is ___________.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Xerophytic

Explanation:

It is xerophytic and it is gotten from Greek word, Xeros( dry) and phutons(plants). It is an adaptive term that is use to describe plants species that posses structural adaptive features which make them to adapt and survive in areas where there is little water or dry region like desert, or area covered with ices by possessing some mechanism which help them to reduce water loss or concerns water. Examples include cactus, pineapple and some Gymnosperm plants. Some of these plants species posses extensive root system and their leaves are reduced to cacti which does not support water loss.

The figure above represents a rough endoplasmic reticulum. Which of the following best describes the role of the structure labeled Y

Answers

Answer:

The figure is absent in this question, however, it can be answered based on general understanding of the structure of rough endoplasmic reticulum. The options are:

A) Structure Y contributes the raw materials required for the synthesis of proteins

B) Structure Y packages proteins for export from the cell

C) Structure Y is the location where proteins are synthesized

D) Structure Y contains enzymes that cut and bind proteins.

The answer is C.

Explanation:

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is one of the two types of the endoplasmic reticulum, which is a part of the endomembrane system found in eukaryotic cells. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is so named "rough" because of the structures attached to its surface.

The structures attached to the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum are the structures labelled Y in the figure of this question. Those structures are called RIBOSOMES and they are the site (organelles) of protein synthesis in living cells. Therefore, structure Y is the location where where proteins are synthesized.

Importance of mitosis, two reasons and 300 words.

Answers

Answer: Mitosis is a way of making more cells that are genetically the same as the parent cell. It plays an important part in the development of embryos, and it is important for the growth and development of our bodies as well. Mitosis produces new cells, and replaces cells that are old, lost or damaged.

1. Development and growth

After meiosis has produced a gamete, and this has fused with another gamete to form an embryo, the embryo grows using mitosis. This growth continues throughout an organism’s life, in plants, animals, and fungi. In this way, the original chromosomal set is preserved.

2. Cell replacement

This occurs when the original cell is damaged or wounded. New cells are created to replace those that were damaged. Examples of this are the healing of a cut or a broken bone. When old cells die, new ones replace them to ensure continuing functionality.

3. Asexual reproduction

Single-celled organisms and certain multicellular organisms use mitosis for asexual reproduction. This includes reproduction by fragmentation, as in the case of planaria, and reproduction by budding, as in the case of sea anemones. Many plants reproduce using mitosis.

First, we need to understand what meiosis is. Meiosis is the replication of cells that results in each daughter nucleus containing half of the parent cell’s chromosomes. Meiosis is used primarily for the production of gametes, which are incorporated in sexual reproduction. Thus, the main difference between mitosis and meiosis is that mitosis produces somatic (body) cells, which can go on to become part of any bodily tissue, whereas meiosis only produces germ (sex) cells. Organisms which reproduce asexually cannot undergo meiosis, whereas all eukaryotic organisms undergo mitosis. Mitosis and meiosis are similar in that both can only occur in eukaryotic cells. This is because prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus within which to begin the processes of mitosis and meiosis. Instead, prokaryotes replicate themselves using binary fission. Both mitosis and meiosis begin with DNA replication in the parent cell to create four sets of chromosomes: in mitosis, these sets are split to form two diploid daughter cells, while in meiosis, these sets are split to form four haploid daughter cells. This is because cells undergo only one division in mitosis, whereas they undergo two divisions in meiosis.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

In Mirabilis jalapa also known as the 4'o clock plant, flower colour shows incomplete dominance that is why the F1 plant obtained by the crossing of pure Red flowered plant(RR) with pure white flowered plant(rr) shows pink flowers(Rr).

When F1 plant(Rr) is crossed is with pure white flowered plant (rr), the plant obtained would have a genotype of Rr and rr in ratio 2:2

While the phenotype will be 2 pink and 2 white at of 2:2

The phenotypic ratio of the offspring will be 2:2

B
12 water molecules splitting apart during the light-dependent reactions
C 12 water molecubos splitting apart during the light-independent reactions
D. other sugar molecules reacting with oxygen in the chloroplast

Answers

Answer:

A, 6 water molecules splitting apart

Explanation:

I believe the energy from the sunlight is used to split the water. Then we are left with its electrons, hydrogen, and oxygen. Also, photosynthesis only uses 6H2O molecules, so A seems most logical.

Assume a snake must eat 5 grasshoppers per day, while an eagle must eat 2 snakes per day. how many blades of grass are needed to keep an eagle alive for a day?

Answers

Answer:

100 blades

Explanation: (=10 blades/grasshopper x 5 grasshoppers/snake x 2 snakes/eagle)

The number of grass blades required to keep an Eagle alive can be calculated using the multiplication of 10, 5 and 2 is 100 blades.

Number of snakes an Eagle must eat = 2 per day

Number of grasshoppers a snake requires per day = 5 per day

To keep an Eagle alive ;

10 blades of grass are required to keep grasshopper alive

5 grasshoppers are required to keep snake alive

2 snakes are required to keep Eagle alive ;

Therefore, the required number of grass blades needed will be :

10 × 5 × 2 = 100 blades

Hence, the number of grass blades required to keep an Eagle alive is 100.

Pressure and depth share a linear relationship. For every _____ meters that the depth of seawater increases, the pressure increases by another atmosphere or bar.

A. 10
B. 25
C. 100
D. 1000

Answers

It is A i just took a test that had the same question on it!!!

For every 10 meters that the depth of seawater increases, the pressure increases by another atmosphere or bar. So, the correct option is (A).

What is Pressure?

Pressure is defined as the force that is exerted per unit area of ​​an object perpendicular to the surface on which that force is distributed. Gauge pressure is the pressure relative to the ambient pressure. Several units are used to express pressure.

It can be expressed as:

[tex]P = \frac{F}{A}[/tex]

Where, P = pressure

F = force

A = area

In water, the greater the depth, the greater will be the pressure, so for every 10 m increase in depth, the water pressure increases by about 100 kilopascals (kPa). The SI unit of pressure is pascal (represented as Pa) which is equal to one newton per square metre [tex](N/m^2 ) or (kg m^-^1s^-^2).[/tex]

Thus, for every 10 meters that the depth of seawater increases, the pressure increases by another atmosphere or bar. So, the correct option is (A).
