46 is the answer. because if you add 26 and 20 that is the mass
Explanation:
The main function of a leaf is to produce food for the plant by photosynthesis. Chlorophyll, the substance that gives plants their characteristic green colour, absorbs light energy.
I will be describing what each of these do to the plant.
- <u>Photosynthesis: </u>Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
- <u>Transpiration</u>: Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Water is necessary for plants but only a small amount of water taken up by the roots is used for growth and metabolism. The remaining 97–99.5% is lost by transpiration and guttation.
- <u>Guttation</u>: Guttation is the exudation of drops of xylem sap on the tips or edges of leaves of some vascular plants, such as grasses, and a number of fungi. Guttation is not to be confused with dew, which condenses from the atmosphere onto the plant surface. Guttation generally happens during the night time.
- <u>Storage</u>: A storage organ is a part of a plant specifically modified for storage of energy (generally in the form of carbohydrates) or water. Storage organs often grow underground, where they are better protected from attack by herbivores.
- <u>Defense</u>: The first line of defense in plants is an intact and impenetrable barrier composed of bark and a waxy cuticle. Both protect plants against herbivores. Other adaptations against herbivores include hard shells, thorns (modified branches), and spines (modified leaves).

Answer:
Explanation:
<u>According to Arrhenius concept of acid and base:</u>
"When a base in a solution, produces/yields OH- (Hydroxide) ions."
So, when a base is dissolved in a solution, it produces OH- ions.
<u>For example:</u>
NaOH ⇄ Na⁺ + OH⁻ (So, it is a base)

Phenolphthalein is an indicator used in chemistry to detect acidic or basic/alkaline solutions.It is often used in the lab as an indicator used to carry out accurate titration using soluble reactants.
