using what have you learnt about the effect of concentration gradient and surface area to volume ratio, explain the adaptations of a leaf for photosynthesis ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Leaves have an increased surface area in order to increase light-harvesting and they are thin in order to increase the diffusion rate

Explanation:

Leaves have several adaptations to increase the photosynthesis rate. In the first place, leaves have a large surface area to increase light-harvesting and thus also increase photosynthetic energy conversion. Moreover, leaves are sufficiently thin to increase the gas exchange surface area, i.e., the entry of carbon dioxide (CO2) and the exit of oxygen from photosynthesis, which move by diffusion through stomata.

What causes the appearance of the Moon to change over time?

B
The Moon's position relative to the Sun and Earth as it revolves around
Sun.
с
The rotation of the Moon on its axis.
The distance of the Moon to the Sun.
D

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The reason we see different moon phases is because of how the sun, earth and moon are relative to each other .

Answer:

As the Moon orbits our planet, its varying position means that the Sun lights up different regions, creating the illusion that the Moon is changing shape over time. The best way of getting to understand the lunar phases is to regularly go out on a clear night when the Moon is in the sky and observe it.

Explanation:

Actually, the Moon rotates in the same period that it revolves, so we always see the same side (the white arrow keeps pointing to Earth). The differences in the Moon's appearance from one night to the next are due to changing illumination by the Sun, not to its own rotation.

What was the average of diameters (cm) for the Willapa Bay urchins sampled before the hunt? (Type just the number rounded to the tenth place and do not include units.)

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete as the diameters of the Willapa Bay urchins were not given.

However, I'll give a general way to solve this problem.

Average is calculated using:

[tex]Average = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

i.e. Sum of all diameters divided by the number of bay urchins.

The diameter of urchins is usually between 6cm to 12cm; So, I will assume the following diameters for 10 urchins.

10cm, 8cm, 10cm, 7cm, 9cm, 10cm, 6cm, 10cm,8cm, 8cm

Using the above data, the average is:

[tex]Average= \frac{10+8+10+7+9+10+6+10+8+8}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Average= \frac{86}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Average= 8.6[/tex]

Why is photosynthesis is essential to life on earth

Answers

Answer:

Without photosynthesis, the carbon cycle could not occur,  life would not survive and plants would die.

Hope this helps!

Photosynthesis is essential to life on Earth because it is the most important source of Oxygen in the atmosphere. It’s also important because all producers make oxygen and sugar for the secondary consumers and then the carnivores eat animals that consume plants.
