What are two microscopic features of cardiac cells that help to distinguish them from other types of muscle cells?ANSWER: CORTICOSTEROIDS
Answer:
A) photorespiration.
Explanation:
Photorespiration is the harmful metabolic process which takes place when the concentration of oxygen in the leaf increases compared to carbon dioxide.
The RUBISCO enzyme which usually binds the carbon dioxide now binds the oxygen and form the phosphoglycolate and 3 phosphoglycerate.
The phosphoglycolate is lost through the Calvin cycle as Carbon dioxide molecule. This loss proves harmful to the plants.
The photorespiration occurs when the plant faces high temperature therefore n order to prevent water loss the stomata gets closed. This result in the binding of the oxygen to the RUBISCO and thus photorespiration begins.
Thus, Option-A is correct.
Answer:
Vacuoles are storage sacs used for storing liquid and solid contents.they are small in animal cells and large in plant cells.in plant cells vacuoles are full of cell sap and provide turgidity and rigidity to the cell.in single celled organisms like amoeba,the food vacuole contain the food item that amoeba has consumed.in some unicellular organisms specialised vacuoles also play important role in expelling excess water and some waste from the cell.
Explanation:
Answer:
A. Nuclear reactors increase thermal pollution
Explanation:
From the analogy provided in this context, we can vividly see that the author is suggesting that the use of nuclear energy causes thermal pollution.
- Nuclear energy is an alternate energy source as identified in the text.
- Since a huge amount of heat energy is generated and they are not all used up, they are released into the ecosystem.
- The earth is usually depicted as heat reservoir.
- Increased release of heat to the environment will cause thermal pollution.
- This increases the ambient temperature of water and degrades it.
<h2>Answer:</h2>
(D)
<h2>Explanation:</h2>
The uneven heating of the Earth’s surface heats up the air which stirs up air currents in the atmosphere Ex. Jet streams, Easterly, Westerly winds.
