Which force is the central causative agent of the cohesion-tension model of xylem transport?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
The causitive agent of the cohesion-tension model of xylem transport is transpiration. During the process of transpiration, water vapor is lost from the stomata of the leaf. To replace this water, water from adjacent cells is withdrawn. The water molecules stick together due to cohesion and are transported upwards through the stem in the form of a stream.<span />

By leaving crop roots in the ground and stalks on the surface, no-till plowing helps prevent ____________________.
shusha [124]

Answer:

Soil erosion.

Explanation:

No-till plowing can be defined as a farming method or technique which typically involves planting crops (seedlings) without tilling the soil rather the farmer would only open a narrow or very shallow trench of sufficient depth and width to cover up the seedlings. Thus, the no-till plowing makes crop residues to be left on the soil and by extension preventing soil erosion through the absorption of water by the crop residues.

Hence, by leaving crop roots in the ground and stalks on the surface, no-till plowing helps prevent soil erosion.

Additionally, the water retention ability of no-till plowing is usually a boon to farmers because it slows down evaporation and serves as a good protection for drought-stricken environments.

Muscle cell activity increases and ATP decreases below the set-point, a sensor molecule detects low ATP and activates protein ki
sergeinik [125]

Answer: Feedback mechanism

Explanation:

Feedback mechanism is the body's way of maintaining physiologic processes in the body. These physiologic processes include maintaining homeostasis, production of energy, hormones as well as enzymes required for chemical reactions.

There are 2 types of feedback mechanism:

  1. Positive feedback: The stimulus (message) sent to the brain, produces prolonged increased production or increased activity in the body.
  2. Negative feedback: In negative feedback, the stimulus causes production, secretion or activity till a set point where the body knows it has taken enough. This causes a self termination of the process.

In the increased muscle activity, the increase in activity in turn causes a decrease in energy (ATP) and serves as the stimulus leading to the release of enzymes which in turn lead to increased absorption of glucose which will be used by the body to produce more ATP needed for the muscular activity. At the end of the muscular activity, the body recognizes that it doesn't need an increased absorption of glucose to support increased activity anymore and glucose absorption normalizes.
