Answer:

The correct answer is option A, Cuticle

Explanation:

A plant leaf is covered by hydrophobic waxy layer  known as cuticle that prevents the loss of water through the leaves.  It acts as a barrier to the process of transpiration. It is made of cutin and lipids that are soluble in solvent and thus they are hydrophobic.  Also cutin and lipid together form  waxy covering over the epidermal layer of plant leaves which prevent any form of water exchange.

Male-patterned baldness is more common in males as the name suggest.why is this?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

mark brainliest :))

Explanation:

Because baldness is a sex-linked trait.  

In other words, men are simply more likely to express the trait for baldness than women are, because they only need one set of genes for baldness, while women need two.  

If, for example, for each gene there is a 1/2 chance that the gene will be for baldness and 1/2 that it will not, then men have a 1/2 chance (because 1/2^1 = 1/2) of being bald, while women have a 1/4 chance (because 1/2^2 = 1/4) of being bald.  

This is the reason it's called "male-pattern baldness": it is more common in males. However, this does not explain nor rule out the dearth of women with baldness-women can get it too: it's just less common

Soils contain small or trace amounts of many minerals, including the chemical elements phosphorus, calcium, potassium, magnesium
serg [7]

Answer:

Magnesium, calcium, phosphorous, sulfur these are essential nutrients for plants. These are required in trace quantity but are very important for plant life. Point A. will be correct answer.

Explanation:

As in B. starch n cellulose are composed of only carbon, oxygen and hydrogen.

As in C. These elements are not required on special occasion but are necessary throughout plant life.

As in D.  C H N O  is the primary component plants need but these secondary nutrients are equally necessary for growth n structure of plant.

<u><em>So answer A. Is the correct option.</em></u>

Calcium plays the most important role in structure formation of plants. Also act as messenger molecule in signaling. Deficiency  of calcium caused wilting , weakened stem and ultimately death of plant.

Magnesium is the key element in chlorophyll molecule. It is necessary for chlorophyll formation.

Sulfur is another very important element in plant life, it is necessary for protein synthesis in plants.

Phosphorous plays an important role in  process of cell devision , photosynthesis and respiration.

Potassium is very crucial in gaseous exchange ,it operates the opening and closing of stomata.
