F. F. Blackman performed experiments to investigate the effects of various factors on photosynthesis. In one of his experiments,

Blackman found that if light intensity was low, photosynthesis could be accelerated by increasing the amount of light, but not by increasing the temperature or carbon dioxide concentration. What can you conclude from this specific experiment?

Answer:

Light was a limiting factor for photosynthesis under the given conditions. Light is required for photosynthesis.

Explanation:

According to Blackman's principle of limiting factors, the rate of photosynthesis is regulated by the factor which is present below the minimal value. Photosynthesis is regulated by many factors such as CO2 concentration, temperature, light intensity, etc. However, under particular conditions, the factor present below the minimum levels regulate its rate.

In the experiment, when the light intensity was present below its minimum levels, an increase in the light intensity increased the rate of photosynthesis. Here, light intensity was the limiting factor and no other factors such as CO2 or temperature would affect the rate of photosynthesis.

Once the light intensity reaches its optimal levels, other factors become limiting and there is no further increase in the rate of photosynthesis by increasing the light intensity.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Neighboring cardiac muscle cells in the walls of heart chambers have specialized cell-to-cell contacts that electrically and mechanically link the cells together, permitting the immediate passage of muscle impulses. These cell-to-cell contacts are called <u>intercalated discs.</u>

Explanation:

Intercalated discs can be described as unique structures present between the cardiac muscles of the heart. The intercalated discs play a major role in making the cardiac muscles contract in a rhythm so that the heart can pump blood in a regular fashion and it hence regulates the effective functioning of the heart. The intercalated discs are the structures that join on cardiac muscle to another and is involved in the transmission of chemical messages between them.

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is included in the Explanation section

Explanation:

An organism with considerable more chromosomes than humans: the plant <em>Ophioglossum reticulatum</em> with 1260 chromosomes.

An organism with considerable fewer chromosomes than humans: the ant <em>Myrmecia pilosula</em> with 1 chromosome.

It might be thought that the chromosome number of a species is directly related to its complexity, meaning that an organism with a large number of chromosomes is more complex than an organism with a small number. However, this is not true. Chromosomes are structures of coiled DNA, and its number indicate how the cells wrapp their genomic material when they reproduce. The number of chromosomes is not related to the organism complexity, but rather the number of genes and their function.
