You conduct an experiment to learn more about how water moves within the plant body. you take a common houseplant and cut the st

em off about one inch above the soil surface. water begins collecting at the cut--in the stem stump--as if some force is pushing the water up through the roots and remaining stem. how could you best explain this observation?

Minerals, unable to move up to the leaves, are accumulating in the root, which causes water to rush in due to osmosis.

Hope this helps!

compare and contrast the processes of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration. how are they similar and how do they differ?
Brut [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration (aerobic) are both metabolic processes that occur in specialized organnelles of living cells. These two processes are so unique to one another in the sense that one uses the product of the other as a reactant and vice versa.

Photosynthesis is an anabolic reaction that occurs in the Chloroplast of autotrophs in which captured energy from sun is used to synthesize organic food (glucose) by combining carbondioxide (CO2) and water. Oxygen is released in this photosynthetic process.

6CO2 + 6H20 --------> C6H12O6 + 6O2

Aerobic cellular respiration, on the other hand, is a catabolic process undergone by every aerobic living cell (in the mitochondria) in which glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP (energy) releasing CO2 and water (H2O) in the process.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ------> 6C02 + 6H2O

One spectacular difference is that photosynthesis uses solar energy (from sun) while aerobic cellular respiration uses chemical energy to power the process.
