Water is able to travel against gravity, from the roots of a plant to the leaves at the top of the plant.
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) Capillary action, when adhesive forces are stronger than cohesive forces.</em>

Explanation:

When water leaves from the leaves of a plant through events such as transcription, a gap is produced in the capillary action of the xylem tube. As a result, more water is drawn from the roots to fill the void. The forces of attraction between the water and the xylem tube are much greater than the intramolecular forces of water. As a result, the water flows in an upward direction due to these string adhesive forces present between the water and xylem tube.

Make a concept map that shows how photosynthesis and cellular respiration are related
lara31 [8.8K]
In plants, photosynthesis, occurring in chloroplasts, is an anabolic (bond-building) process whereby CO2 and H2O combine with the use of light (photon) energy. This yields O2 and sugar (i.e. glucose). This occurs in 2 phases: light-dependent and dark (Calvin cycle) reactions, which both continually recycle ADP/ATP and NADP/NADPH.
The catabolic (bond-breaking) process in plants is cellular respiration, in which glucose is broken down with O2 by glycolysis (cytoplasm only) and mitochondrial reactions (Krebs cycle and E.T.C.) to yield CO2 and H2O. These reactions recycle ADP/ATP and NAD/NADH. The CO2 and water produced by cellular respiration feed into the photosynthetic processes, and in turn, the O2 and glucose resulting from photosynthesis supply the respiratory reactions.

Explain how both the digestive system and the urinary system work to conserve water in the human body.
Ghella [55]
Everything that we eat and drink contains some percentage of water. So, to start, you have to know that the human body has receptors which estimate if we have enough water in our blood and cells in general. From these receptors, the information travels through the neurons to the part of the brain that is responsible for activation of different responses. 

The digestive system is important because in its lower parts, liquids are absorbed and inserted in the bloodstream. Then through the bloodstream, they travel to all parts of the body and are absorbed by cells as needed. When blood passes through the body, it gets to the kidneys where water and electrolytes are filtered, reabsorbed if needed and excreted through the urine. 

Now, if the brain has a signal that the body has a lack of liquids, it activates hormones which influence the bloodstream in both the digestive and the urinary system. In this case, the digestive system will absorb more liquids from food because the hormones will make the blood vessels in the digestive area larger, and on the other hand, we will produce less urine because the kidneys will get an assignment from the brain to filter liquids, but to reabsorb them again as much as possible.
