a. Sugar cane, corn, carbgrass which are identified as C4 Plants allow fixation of carbon dioxide into four carbon compounds. This happens during the  hottest time of the day - their so-called stomata gets partially closed. C4 plants have been identified to lose only half of the water that C3 plants lose when they produce the similar amount of carbs.

<span>b.CAM PATHWAY - Plants such as pineapples and cactus have different approach to adapting heat. Carbon is fixed through a cam pathway. They use it to open their stomata at night and close it in the morning.</span>

Can someone help me? The question is State two scenarios that demonstrate the process diffusion​
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

One could be in the cell. The cell respires, thus producing carbon dioxide in it. So the concentration builds up in the cell. Diffusion is the net movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration, and the carbon dioxide concentration outside the cell is less, therefore the carbon dioxide molecules moves outs of the cell.

Another scenario is when perfume is sprayed into the air. The perfume particles collides with the air particles (lower or no concentration of perfume). This process goes on and on. This is diffusion since the concentration perfume particles collides with the less concentrated particles of perfume.

How is oxygen taken into the body?​
UNO [17]

Answer:

Oxygen enters the body in the mouth and nose, passes through the larynx and the trachea. The trachea splits into two bronchial tubes, which lead to smaller tubes that lead to 600 million alveoli, which are small sacs surrounded by capillaries. The capillaries take oxygen into the arteries, and the oxygen-rich blood is then pumped into every cell of your body. Once the oxygen has been absorbed, carbon dioxide and water are eliminated through the lungs.

Explanation:

good luck!
