Answer:

A, B, C and D are the correct answers.

Explanation:

The example given in option A can be accepted as stomata are openings or pores that are found on the surface of the leaves and the water vaporates through them.

The example given in option B can also be accepted because thricomes take on the role of decreasing water loss by reducing the effect of sunlight on the surface of the leaves.

Cuticle is the layer on the outside of the leaves called epidermis, which protects the plant from losing water through vaporization. Therefore the example given in option C can also be accepted.

Leaves in the shape of needles help decrease water loss as they reduce the total surface area of the leaves greatly. Option D can be accepted.

Stomata on the surface of the leaves gets direct sunlight and this leads to more water to vaporize so option E can not be an example of an adaptation.

As surface area increases, so does water loss so option F also can not be accepted.

I hope this answer helps.

A because osmosis will act to balance the concentrations of water inside and outside the cell. As this happens, sugar outside the cell will dissolve into the water and be moved across the cell membrane with it into the cell. This continues until the concentrations are equal.

Which macromolecules were present in the unknown solution? In the milk?
dexar [7]
Lipids and proteins.

Lipids are macromolecules which provide insulation
. 
A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.

Proteins are biological macromolecule and mostly composed of enzymes.<span> Proteins play a role in the physical make-up of a cell or acts as a cytoskeleton –maintains cell shape and figure. These proteins plays different roles and works with nucleic acids and other macromolecules in the cells including cell cycle, cell adhesion, immune response and cell indicators. <span> </span></span>
