Answer:

They do not equate because renewing things mean you can reuse like growing trees to cut down and make the trees paper and you do that over and over again. Still, recycling means you destroy something, only to make the item something different, and recycling the item can be turned into fuel or electricity.

Explanation:

Recycle and renew are the two R's that uses and transforms the waste material. Recyclables do not equate to renewable as recyclable materials do not occur naturally.

<h3>What are recyclable and renewable?</h3>

Recyclable is the resources that are used finite times over and over and undergo a certain process for re-use purposes.  They can be naturally or by humans, processed to be used again.

Renewable is resources that are natural and are replenished in nature when gets decreased by natural processes.

Some recyclables like aluminum and glass are not renewable as they are not formed naturally and do not get replenished by natural processes.

Therefore, recyclables are not renewables.

How would shoot and root growth be affected by a mutation that caused plants to lose the ability to polymerize glucose into star
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

b) Lateral branch shoots would grow more horizontally and have less of a tendency to turn upward.

d) Lateral branch roots fully embedded in soil would grow randomly upward and downward.

e) Roots breaking the soil surface would grow upward.

Explanation:

Inside the amyloplasts of the common bean the starch granules resemble variously sized cotton balls stuffed into a balloon. Under normal circumstances amyloplasts do nothing more than sit on the bottom of special gravity-sensing cells. When a plant is knocked over, the amyloplasts slide from what was recently the bottom of the cell onto a formerly vertical wall. Somehow, this movement is sensed and relayed to cells that secrete the growth-regulating plant hormone auxin.

Since the plant has lost the ability to transform glucose into the granules. The plant can´t differentiate between up or down because gravity is what causes these granules to settle down.
