Answer:
root hairs → 1. absorbs water and nutrients from the soil
vascular tissue → 2. consists of xylem and phloem
chloroplast → 3. the site of photosynthesis inside the cell
stem → 4. holds the leaves up high into the sunlight
leaf → 5. acts like an umbrella to absorb light
terminal bud → 6. the growing part of the stem
taproot → 7. roots that reach deep into the ground
Explanation:
I have been able to match each term to its correct description.
From the above, we will discover that these are parts of a plant. These parts of the plant enable the plant to carry out photosynthesis and to exist.
The root hairs of the plant absorbs water and nutrients from the soil. When such are absorbed, the vascular tissues help to transport them.
The vascular tissue consists of the xylem and phloem. They transport fluid and nutrients inside the plant. The vascular tissue is associated with two meristems which are the vascular cambium and the cork cambium. It is at the chloroplast that photosynthesis occur; where light energy is converted to chemical energy.
The stem holds the leaves firmly in order to project it to the sunlight. The leaf absorb sunlight which is needed for photosynthesis. The terminal bud is actually the part of the stem that is growing out. Taproot reach deep down the ground in search of water for the plant.
The liver is your largest internal organ. About the size of a football, it's located mainly in the upper right portion of your abdomen — beneath the diaphragm and above your stomach — but a small portion extends into the upper left quadrant.
Answer:
When directed mutagenesis which is also called reverse genetics is used, only a single mutation per genome is introduced. In contrast, the number of mutations per genome introduced by random mutagenesis is usually difficult to control. It is likely that the strain you obtained with a mutation in gene X after random mutagenesis contained an additional mutation or perhaps multiple mutations which ultimately was/were responsible for loss of virulence in your favorite pathogen.
Polysaccharides like Cellulose form insoluble micro-fibrils making it resistant to degradation and enzymatic activity.
<u>EXPLANATION: </u>
- Polysaccharides components in general broken down monosaccharides and they are very little enough to be absorbed by the body.
- But the polysaccharide like cellulose cannot be absorbed by our body.
- Cellulose is made up of simple polymers that form insoluble micro-fibrils results in resistant to degradation and enzymatic activity.
- Also, molecules of each micro-fibril are so tightly packed structure and prevent the penetration of enzymes.
- Thus, cellulose degradation requires a complex enzyme and cellulose.
Answer:
a rat with rabbit hemoglobin genes
Explanation:
When the genome of an organism is modified in the field of genetic engineering,by transplanting the gene(DNA) from one organisms to another,(by vectors) or alteration of the gene components,the resulting organism produced or formed is called Transgenic organism.
This process of genetic engineering makes use of recombination of genes to alter the genome of the transgenic organism.
Thus by transferring to rat ( the DNA for Hb) as the rabbit Hb,the gene( or genome) for producing Hb in tats has been modified by that of rabbit.Hence Rat is said to transgenic.
Besides animals crop plants are also genetically modified.Thus the genome of some crops are altered to resist herbicides and pesticides. Some species of rice (golden rice)have been modified to add certain vitamins to improve the nutritional values.
Genetically modified bananas as edible vaccines are another example
