Answer:

The correct answer is option D-the underside of the sporophyte.

Explanation:

Ferns are pteridophytes which evolved earlier than the flowering plants. They do not produce seeds and reproduce through spores.

These spores are usually present on the underside of fern leaf also called "fronds" in sporophytic structures called sori. When these spores are ripened they are released from the capsule which germinates to produce prothallus, a gametophyte from which gametes are produced.

Thus, option D-the underside of the sporophyte is the correct option.

What is the most accurate classification of the common forms of coronary artery disease and hypertension?
Genrish500 [490]
The most accurate classification of the common forms of coronary artery disease and hypertension is that they are complex disorders which result from gene-environment interactions. For example, almost 60% of CAD cases are found in South East Asia, that too when their population if just 20% of the total world's population. This is due to the environmental interactions with the genetic disposition of the people of this region.

If someone told you that plate tectonics is just a theory and that it hasn’t been accepted as a law yet, how would this informat
ch4aika [34]

Answer: There are few ‘laws’ in science. Those ‘laws’ are so named for historical reasons, but they are theoretical in nature. They set out what happens when a theory is applied in practice. A theory is simply the best explanation we have for understanding why some process takes place and predicting what the result will be.

Explanation: Anyone who describes something as “just a theory” does not understand what a theory is. Laws are arbitrary human rules. Theories are severely tested and re-tested explanations of why things happen in the real physical world and can be used to make predictions about outcomes.

Some would say that theories are about why something happens and laws (in science) describe what happens. But this simply makes a scientific ‘law’ a subset of a scientific theory, explaining how to make predictions.

Do the properties of adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension behave different in salt water vs fresh water
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The water has a dipole that causes it to act like a magnet, attracting other water molecules to it. Adhesion is the attractive forces that cause water to "stick" to a surface other than its own. ... The salt water has a much lower cohesion than plain water so it's attractive forces are less than plain water.
