Answer:

Presence of chlorophyll  pigment in the leaves and cell walls were made of cellulose

Explanation:

The first plants that appeared on the land areas were comprised of the main component known as the cellulose that forms the cell wall of the plants and is responsible for making the various parts of plants such as branches, plant stems, and leaves, stronger and supportive.

In addition to this, the leaves of these primitive plants were comprised of green pigments known as chlorophyll that absorbs the sunlight and CO₂, and helps the plants in preparing the food for themselves as well as for the consumers, and also liberates oxygen (O₂) with it.

Thus, these are the two common characteristics that supported the idea that the primitive land plants had a relation with the green algae.

mylen [45]

Answer:

Seafloor spreading helps explain continental drift in the theory of plate tectonics. When oceanic plates diverge, tensional stress causes fractures to occur in the lithosphere. At a spreading center, basaltic magma rises up the fractures and cools on the ocean floor to form new seabed.

Explanation:

Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense. The less-dense material rises, often forming a mountain or elevated area of the seafloor. Eventually, the crust cracks.

The bacteria in some foods are sterilized by placing the food near a source of ionizing radiation does that mean that the food b
Firlakuza [10]
<span>Normally sterilizing food using radiation does not induce radioactivity but sometimes it may change the taste, texture of the food and it may also destroy the nutrients. radiation is used to kill the harmful bacteria and to increase the shelf life. when the radiation is very energetic it alters the food structure but it does not make it radioactive. To become radioactive one has to make a nucleus unstable. ionizing radiation normally cannot do this. FDA has established maximum energy levels for radiation to prevent the treated foods from becoming radioactive. The energy levels of the rays are too low to induce radioactivity in the food. So there is no harm in consuming treated foods.</span>

The largest proportion of the carbon dioxide delivered from peripheral tissues to the lungs is carried in the blood:
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: The correct answer would be option a.

Explanation:

The hemoglobin in red blood cell has a tendency to bind to oxygen as well carbon dioxide in a reversible manner. It depends upon the partial pressure of the gas.

For example, at tissue site, the concentration of carbon dioxide is higher than oxygen due to which the affinity of hemoglobin increases for carbon dioxide.

In hemoglobin, carbon dioxide reacts with water to form bicarbonate ions and hydrogen ions.

At alveolar site, these ions again convert into carbon dioxide and excrete out of the blood as a part of exhale air.

Delicious77 [7]
Cat (Australia); lots of cats became feral and they reproduce very fast. They became the apex predator and the native species have no defense system for them, so the cats brought tens of species on the verge of extinction (mainly placental mammals).
Fox (Australia); became an apex predator in the lack of competition, and damages the populations of native small placental mammals. 
Hair (Australia); reproduces much quicker than the native species of mammals, increased significantly in numbers, and out competes the native species for the food sources.
African bee (the Americas); much more aggressive and stronger than the native bees and systematically kills their populations.
Grey squirrel (Britain); reproduces quicker than the red squirrel, is bigger, and out competes for food, brought it on the verge of extinction.
