1. Which of the following statements best describe the difference between angiosperms and gymnosperms?

1 answer:

3 0

1) C. Gymnosperms are mostly adapted for wind pollination; angiosperms are mostly adapted for animal pollination. This is the best answer, because the others had the two types reversed. Gymnos have "naked" seeded cones, whereas Angios have seeds protected by fruit. Therefore the Angios relies on animals to eat the fruit and to pollinate, whereas Gymnos relied on wind to pollinate the ground. Gymnos came first on Earth and Angios developed later.

2) C. Cuticle. This is a waxy coating helping to keep water in. The main water losses are via stomata.

3) C. Stomata

4) B. Nonvascular

5) B. Gravity

These answers were explained in the questions that I just answered before. So refer to those for explanations.

Carbon dioxide is carried from the tissues to the lungs by a variety of mechanisms. Which of the following lists these mechanism

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

bicarbonate-carbaminohemoglobin-dissolved in plasma

Explanation:

Transport of CO2 in the blood occurs in three main forms. Most of the CO2 is carried in the blood as bicarbonate. It accounts for transport of about 70% CO2. In RBCs, CO2 reacts with water in the presence of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase to form carbonic acid, which dissociates into H+ and HCO3-. Bicarbonate formation also occurs in blood plasma.

About 23% of CO2 is carried in the form of carbamino-compounds. Binding of CO2 to hemoglobin forms carbaminohemoglobin. The smallest percentage of CO2 (about 7%) is dissolved in blood plasma and is diffused into the alveolar air as it reaches the lungs.
