Which abiotic factor most likely controls where the plants live in this environment ?
Oxygen levels for aquatic animals
Oxygen from the air and oxygen produced by aquatic plants dissolves in water. Without this, aquatic animals would suffocate and die. Healthy lakes and rivers have high levels of oxygen, and polluted waters often have low levels of oxygen. This pollution means that only certain species can survive there such as sludgeworms. These are bioindicator species because their presence or absence informs us about the condition of the habitat.
Carbon dioxide levels for plants
Carbon dioxide is a reactant in photosynthesis which means plants need it to survive. Areas with higher levels of carbon dioxide are more likely to have healthy plants growing. Farmers often release carbon dioxide within their greenhouses to maximise their crop yield. Woodlands often have higher carbon dioxide levels than open grassland, so many plants living in open areas have evolved mechanisms to overcome a shortage of carbon dioxide.
Answer:
There is a higher oxygen content in the air of the lungs than that of oxygen-depleted blood and a lower carbon dioxide concentration. This gradient of concentration causes gas exchange during respiration.
Explanation:
Answer:
Plant Growth increases in the spring
Answer:
Microvilli is very common in these cells. They increase the absorption area.
Explanation:
Epithelial cell surfaces show different structure shapes that allow the cells to adapt to and accomplish their functions. Most of these structures are related to the absorption surface and the need to move substances.
The development of microvilli is very common in epithelial cells. These are folds or finger-like projections emerging from the apical surface of the cell. <u>Their principal function is to absorb</u>. The microvilli of the intestinal epithelium are very uniform in size and distribution.
Answer:
A. Transport of materials in xylem
Xylem tissue helps in the transport of water and minerals
Water is transported upwards from roots to aerial parts of plants
Transport in xylem requires physical forces such as transpiration pull.
B. Transport of materials in phloem
Phloem tissue helps in the transport of food.
Transport of food in phloem requires energy in the form of ATP.
Food is transported in both upward and downward directions.
