Answer:
a. transcription
Explanation:
<em>Sugar transport in phloem is referred to as pressure flow and it involves the movement of sugar through the phloem vascular tissue from the regions where sugar is synthesized (by photosynthesis) to other parts of the plant's body that require sugar.</em>
The parts of plants where sugar is synthesized (usually the leaf) is known as sugar source while the parts where they are transported is referred to as the source. Sources are usually areas of of high osmotic concentration and high water pressure while sinks are usually areas of low osmotic concentration and low water pressure.
<em>Hence, sugar transport in the phloem can be said to be influenced by the rate of sugar production at the source (rate of photosynthesis), turgor pressure as well as sugar concentration in sinks and sources.</em>
The only option that has no known effect on sugar transport in the phloem is transcription.
The correct option is a.
The pectoral girdle articulates with the axial skeleton only at the Sternoclavicular ligament<span>. The pectoral girdle connects the upper limbs to the axial skeleton and serves as the attachment site for the muscles of the upper back, chest and neck. The clavicle is the only long bone that lies in a horizontal position in the body. it has three regions; the medial end, the lateral end, and the shaft. The medial end has a triangular shape and articulates with the manubrium portion of the sternum. This forms sternoclavicular joint, which is the only bony articulation between the pectoral girdle of the upper limb and the axial skeleton. </span>
Answer:
An invasive species is an organism that causes ecological or economic harm in a new environment where it is not native.
Explanation:
Invasive species can harm both the natural resources in an ecosystem as well as threaten human use of these resources. An invasive species can be introduced to a new area via the ballast water of oceangoing ships, intentional and accidental releases of aquaculture species, aquarium specimens or bait, and other means.
Invasive species are capable of causing extinctions of native plants and animals, reducing biodiversity, competing with native organisms for limited resources, and altering habitats. This can result in huge economic impacts and fundamental disruptions of coastal and Great Lakes ecosystems.
