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.

I believe the answer is the weight of each tomato.

This is because the weight of each tomato depends on the amount of fertilizer (the independent variable/the thing being changed) added to each plant.

A cell membrane pump helps human cells to maintain a relatively constant sodium and potassium concentration.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sodium potassium pump is a plasma membrane protein that utilizes energy ATP — Triphosphate Adenosine turning into ADP — Adenosine Diphosphate to deliver intracellular and extracellular sodium (NA+) and potassium (K+) ions sequentially. The purpose of this entire mechanism is to preserve cell equilibrium.

The extracellular medium has a greater concentration of Na while the K concentration of the intracellular fluid is lower. Proteins trap sodium ions in the cytoplasm and pump them out from the cells to preserve cell stability while preserving concentrations. Within the cells proteins inject potassium ions into the cell.
