how does the structure of the leaf allow it fulfil the requirements for gas exchange surface?
(pls don't put it in a file or pls no link) :)​

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

The structure of the leaf is adapted for gas exchange. The cells in the spongy mesophyll (lower layer) are loosely packed, and covered by a thin film of water. There are tiny pores, called stomata , in the surface of the leaf. Most of these are in the lower epidermis, away from the brightest sunlight.

The stomata control gas exchange in the leaf. Each stoma can be open or closed, depending on how turgid its guard cells are.

In the light, the guard cells absorb water by osmosis, become turgid and the stoma opens.

In the dark, the guard cells lose water, become flaccid and the stoma closes.

Diffusion of carbon dioxide, oxygen and water vapour into (or out of) the leaf is greatest when the stomata are open.

How is efficiency related to systems?

The efficiency indicates the manner in which the inputs are used by the system. Being efficient means the system uses inputs in a `right' way. If the input-output ratio is adverse, we say that the system is inefficient though it produces the desired output.

all plant bodies(root,stem and leaf) are externally covered by epidermis but why woody plant is covered by barks​

Answers

Answer:

Bark comprises all the tissues surrounding the xylem in woody plants. Broadly, bark includes an inner and mostly living region and an outer, dead one. Of all plant structures, bark has the most complex anatomical structure and ontogenetic origin involving two (and often three) different meristems.

As to why, the bark adds layers to the inside ring of the vascular cambium, the outside is pushed outward. The cells die off, and the fibrous matrix of cellulose and lignin molecules remain. This hard structure forms the bark, and protects the tree or plant from many forms of damage.

Which of the following is not a health risk associated with ozone?
A) skin cancer
B) cataracts
C) obesity
D) respiratory illneses

Answers

Answer:

obesity

Explanation:

The following that is not a health risk associated with ozone is obesity. The correct option is C.

What is ozone?

Ozone is a trioxygen inorganic molecule that is of pale blue color. The ozone layer is present in the stratosphere of the atmosphere. It absorbs the UV rays coming from the sun. Thus, it is a protective layer that saves from UV rays.

UV rays are harmful rays that affect health. It creates skin problems and many other health problems. So the ozone layer protects us from UC radiation, it acts as a shield.

Obesity is a condition in which the body becomes fat. It happens with the accumulation of fat in the body. This does not occur with UV rays. It occurs due to food. So this will not be a health risk associated with ozone.

Thus, the correct option is C.  obesity.

Using the allele symbols in the table, identify the genotype of a guinea pig that is recessive for hair length, heterozygous for hair color, and homzygous dominant for hair texture.

Answers

Answer:

Hair length: hh

Hair color: Bb

Hair Texture: RR

Explanation:

In order for the recessive gene to show for hair length, two of the same alleles must be present, so, in this case, hh.

The question states "heterozygous for hair color." This tells you that the genotype will be Bb. Heterozygous means two of the different alleles. This is different from homzygous.

The question states "homzygous dominant for hair texture." This tells you that it will contain two of the same alleles. The question also tells you that it is homzygous dominant, which means there will be two of the same dominant alleles, so, RR.

A Analogous structures

The fossil record, molecular data and vestigial structure would help taxonomists to create evolutionary links between species except analogous structures.

What do you mean by fossil record?"A fossil record is a group of fossils which has been analyzed and arranged chronologically and in taxonomic order."What is molecular data?"Molecules such as sequence of DNA used in studies of intra-specific variation and studies of similarity among species."What is vestigial structure?"Structures that have no apparent function and appear to be residual parts from a past ancestor are called vestigial structures."What do you mean by taxonomists?"Taxonomists are professionals who specialize in classifying and sorting information based on similar characteristics and patterns."What are analogous structures?The structure of different species performing similar function but are from different origin (do not have common ancestor).

The fossil record, molecular data and vestigial structure all would help taxonomists to find evolutionary links between species where through  analogous structures no links would be created.
