what causes water to enter plant roots from the soil?
a. water concentration in root hairs and the soil are equal.
b.water concentration in root hairs and the xylem are equal.
c.water concentration in root hairs is higher than in the soil
d.water concentration in root hairs is lower than in the soil

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The cell sap is hypertonic to the soil therefore an osmotic gradient is formed and the roots therefore intake water

What causes water to enter plant roots from the soil is mainly because the concentration of water in the root hairs is lower than in the soil. The correct option would be D.

Water moves from the soil into the root by osmosis.Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from the region of high water potential or concentration to the region of low water potential or concentration.

Hence, water will enters the plant roots from the soil because the water potential in the soil is more than that of the root airs.

II. PARTS OF THE DIGESTIVE TRACT A. ORAL CAVITY After ingestion, the physical breakdown of solid foods (mechanical digestion) begins in the oral cavity (mouth). Describe how food is mechanically digested in the oral cavity. Include a discussion of how the teeth, tongue, and saliva work together to convert solid food into a moist, semi-solid mass of food called a bolus. Example: think of how a hard, dry saltine cracker is converted into a moist ball (bolus) in the mouth. B. PHARYNX and ESOPHAGUS 1. After food has been mechanically digested, mixed with saliva, and a bolus has formed, it is swallowed. Swallowing moves the bolus from the mouth into the esophagus. Discuss the events that occur during swallowing. 2. Which portions of the pharynx does food pass through when swallowing

Answers

Answer:

This begins with the gradual breaking down of the food in the mouth, by grinding the food substances with the teeth this is mastication, and the secretion of saliva, which moisten the food, soften it so that the salivary amylase enzyme, carried out the mechanical digestion.

Swallowing is a wavelike muscular contraction which involve the contraction of the longitudinal and circular muscles of the oesophagus, which pushes the bolus down  to the stomach.

The food pass  Oropharynx. While the epiglottis prevents the bolus from entering the trachea.

This is followed by the rolling  up of the tongue, the pushing the broken down food now chyme towards the back of the mouth, pressing it against the soft palate. At this stage a bolus is formed.From here it is pushed into the throat,where it is pushed down the oesophagus by peristalsis.

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Hamilton rules state that any trait that helps in benefiting others, B, is multiplied by genetic relatedness, R, which is greater than cot to self, C, it is favored by the process of natural selection.

As indicated by Hamilton's rule, the kin selection makes qualities increment in recurrence when the hereditary relatedness of a beneficiary to an actor multiplied by the advantage to the beneficiary is more noteworthy than the regenerative expense to the actor.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Shortly after a stream dried up, you noticed a change in the field mouse population coat color variation. When the stream was flowing, there were two populations, one with darker coats and one with lighter coats. After the stream dried up, mice with darker coats were being born into the lighter coat population and vice versa.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

When the stream dried up darker coat mice were seen into the lighter coat population and vice versa because of the natural selection process.

Mice change their coat color by adapting the changes in the stream flow and evolve their coat either dark or light that provides camouflage so predators won’t see them and they are able to survive in the environment. Mice have the advantage of surviving long and they are able to pass their genes to the offspring.

Hence, the given statement is true.

Answers

Answer:

C.  15%  15%  35%

Explanation:

This follows the rules of base pairing.  The amount of thymine (T) equals the amount of adenine (A), and the amount of guanine (G) equals the amount of cytosine (C).

Since thymine is equal to adenine and 35% of the bases is thymine, 35% of the bases is also adenine.  This gives you a total of 70%.

35% + 35% = 70%

Now you need to figure out how much cytosine and guanine are in the bases.  Since 70% of the bases are adenine and thymine, 30% will be cytosine and guanine.

100% - 70% = 30%

Since the amount of cytosine and guanine are equal, divide 30% by 2 to figure out how much each base takes of the total.

30/2 = 15%

Cytosine and guanine each take up 15% of the molecular bases.

Explanation:

While doing research on deep-sea vents, you discover a very simple new life form. After some initial analysis, you find that this life form contains small fragments of DNA, small complementary RNA fragments, and proteins. Fortuitously, you collected two strains, one that is purple and one that is yellow. You wish to discover which of those three molecules could be the genetic material. You heat-kill some of the purple life form and subject three different homogenized samples to different enzymes: DNase, RNase, or protease. Which treated sample(s) will transform yellow into purple IF RNA is the genetic material

Answers

Answer:

The one treated with DNase and protease

Explanation:

The samples that will transform yellow into purple if RNA is the genetic material are the ones treated with DNase and protease respectively.

The treatment of the heat-killed sample of the purple life with DNase will ensure that the DNA in the sample becomes degraded while treatment with protease will ensure that protein is degraded, leaving only the RNA. Thus, the RNA can be taken up by the yellow life form and become transformed into purple if indeed RNA is the genetic material.

The sample treated with RNase cannot transform the yellow life into purple because the RNase catalyzes the degradation of RNA into smaller components.

Which correctly lists the three processes that are affected by freeze and thaw cycles?
O creep, landslide, and deposition
O deposition, creep, and weathering
O landslide, slump and deposition
O slump. weathering, and creep

Answers

Answer:

Slump creep and weathering

Explanation:

Freeze-thaw weathering occurs when water from rainfall or melt snow penetrate into cracks and the temperature is lowered than a liquid and freeze. The process where exposed rock is broken. It gives the landscape a new shape.

When the freeze occur it expands the rock and when the temperature increases above freezing the thaw ice further penetrate into the crack.

Weathering the breaking down of rock into smaller frequent affects freeze-thaw as it allows water to penetrate into cracks.

Slump is the downward movement of materials from rock surface, it allows material to move alone the rock surface liquid such as water can be allowed to move and penetrate cracks. crack rock fragment that results from freeze thawing are deposited at rock base and form smaller rocks

Creep is also the movements of weathered materials down the slope of rock surfaces. It could result from freeze thaw.

You are running an experiment to study seed germination and accidentally left a dish of seeds covered with a little water in a totally dark room. When you return a few days later, you notice that the seeds have sprouted long roots and long shoots. What was the source of most of the matter that makes up these roots and shoots?A. oxygen in the airB. carbon dioxide in the airC. water in the dishD. glucose in the seed

Answers

Answer:

D. glucose in the seed

Explanation:

Plants generally make their food through the process of photosynthesis in the presence of sunlight by utilizing carbon-dioxide and water and produces oxygen and carbohydrate.

But due to the absence of sunlight, plant will be unable to use carbon dioxide and water for photosynthesis and oxygen is a by-product.

So the reason of seed germination is the presence of glucose in the seed. Seeds generally germinate through the process of inhibition, that require uptake of water. Glucose works as energy source in humans and plants as well. sugar or glucose allow the seed to utilize the water and help foster its growth.

Hence, the correct option is D. glucose in the seed.
