Water escapes from the pores in plant leaves because of evaporation. This water is what keeps the vacuoles in the cells full and shaped, so the vacuoles are like deflating water balloons

The reason why wilting of leaves take place in hot summer days is mainly because of its water management
in hot summer days, stomata of plants (which located on their leaves, are closed in order to conserve water)

hope this helps

1. Define diffusion.
anygoal [31]

Answer:

1) Diffusion is net movement of anything (e.g., atom, ions, molecules) from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.

2) Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides

3) One big difference between osmosis and diffusion is that both solvent and solute particles are free to move in diffusion, but in osmosis, only the solvent molecules (water molecules) cross the membrane.

4)  Molecules tend to move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration.

I'm sorry, but I don't know how to do part #2. I think it's a lab.

Based on the general trend of your data, what happened to the heart rate and pulse amplitude immediately after exercise and then
Nata [24]

Exercise is very vital to the body,it a form of physical activity.the sole aim of excercise is to maintain stamina, flexibility,keep fit and be overly healthy and well.

When we excercise, our heart rate increases and then it returns to the normal rate when with rest,when we take a break.there is reflection of vasoconstriction in the fingers as the blood is shunted to only the exercising muscles because it is noted that the pulse amplitude of the heart is always small after excercise and and increases slowly during recovery.

The amount of blood the heart pumps in a minute,that is the amount of blood ejected by the contraction of the left ventricle into systemic circulation increases when we are exercising and resistance to blood flow by skeletal muscles decreases.the blood vessels will try to adapt to the condition (exercise) inorder to control blood flow and as well meet energy demands.

When we finish exercising,our body temperature increases which will inturn cause increase in the pulse rate and the blood in our body makes way to our skin,hands and legs inorder to clear off the energy that was generated by the body(muscles) during exercise

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter D. Conventional breeding

Explanation:

In conventional genetic improvement a plant is crossed with another of the same species, with no incorporation of genes from another organism into the plant's genome, requiring repeated crossings until reaching the desired improved cultivar. Only in transgenics or genetic engineering are genes from another organism incorporated into the plant's genome.

Which step of the calvin cycle would be affected first by a lack of nadph?
Mrac [35]

Reduction

Reduction is the second step of the Calvin cycle which would be affected first by a lack of NADPH.

The Calvin cycle is the group of chemical processes that occur within the chloroplasts during photosynthesis . The three main steps in Calvin cycle are carbon fixation (Carboxylation), reduction, and regeneration of the starting molecule. In the reduction step, NADPH acts as a reducing agent which functions by transferring electrons that allow carbohydrates to be synthesized from carbon dioxide. During these step, there is transfer of two electrons and one proton to the phosphorylated compound by NADPH which produces one phosphate group to form the triose phosphates.
