Answer:

The correct answer is option D) "response to external stimuli".

Explanation:

The phenomenon of tree shedding their leaves during the autumn months is an example of plants response to external stimuli. The deciduous trees start shedding their leaves when light levels and temperatures drop, as a result of the flow of auxin being reduced and the levels of the hormone ethylene rise in the leaves. This process allows the trees to survive winter by conserving resources and protecting from being blown by the winds.

D
This would make the most sense it my opinion because the temperature can play a huge factor in if a tree sheds its leaves or not.

Answer: A low pCO2 indicates respiratory alkalosis which may be primary or secondary to a primary metabolic acidosis. Bicarbonate is calculated from measured [H+] and pCO2 values. A high standard [HCO3- ] indicates either primary metabolic alkalosis or a compensatory response to a primary respiratory acidosis.

Explanation: an increase in PCO2 causes a decrease in pH, which will increase minute ventilation and therefore increase alveolar ventilation to attempt to reach homeostasis. The higher the minute ventilation, the more exchange and loss of PCO2 will occur inversely.
