We first have to understand what a vascular system is. A vascular system consists of the water-carrying tube(xylem) and food-carrying tube(phloem). These 2 tubes are very essential for plants to survive. The xylem transports water to the leaves thru the stem to nourish the leaves so as to make food. The word equation is : Water + Carbon dioxide ----> Glucose + Oxygen. The phloem on the other hand transports the food from the leaves that creates them amd sent them to all parts of the plant. It is often a misconception that food is only sent to the fruits. The plant receives nutrition from the food that is made by the leaves. Overall the vascular system plays a very importamt roles in the survival of the plant.

To put it simple, think of the vascular system of a plant like the circulatory system of a human. Without the circulatory system, the human is unable to receive oxygen for breathing and remove carbon dioxide which is acidic in nature and pose a threat to the human body.

C. Temperature and pH can affect how enzymes work

Enzymes show a maximum activity at an optimum pH and temperature. Changes in the pH or the temperature can cause damage in the structure of the enzymes, if the structure changes the substrate can no longer bind to the enzyme, which is why the activity of the enzymes starts to slow down.

1. What type of information does a pedigree contain?

nevsk [136]

Q1. Pedigree is the recorded lineage of a family. A pedigree chart is actually a diagram showing an appearance and occurrence of phenotypes in several generations. It is used to find a probability of a child inheriting a particular trait or to discover is the trait autosomal or sex-related.

Q2. The presence of a trait in a pedigree chart is shown as filled-in figure. If a square or a circle in the pedigree chart are white (empty), then a person does not have a particular trait. If a figure is filled in (usually black), then a person has a trait. If a figure is half-filled in (e.g. it is half black half white), then a person is only a carrier of a trait but the trait is not expressed.

Q3. In the pedigree charts, squares present males and circles present females. If a female is healthy, the circle is empty (white). If a female is affected with a trait, the circle is filled in (usually black). Similarly, if a male is healthy, the square is empty. If a male is affected with a trait, the square is filled in.

Q4. The presence of dimples is a dominant trait. <span>In dominant traits, traits do not skip generations, unlike recessive traits. From the pedigree, the disorder did not skip any generations. This suggests that the disorder is dominant. If it was recessive, in some generation the trait would not be expressed.

Q5. If a pedigree chart of a family is known, then the occurrence and appearance of a trait can be predicted. For example, if it is known whether a disease is dominant, recessive, or sex-linked, then a possibility of getting a child with a disease can be easily calculated.</span>
