1 answer:

7 0

Photosynthesis in plants occurs in two stages. These stages are known as the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin Cycle.

The first stage of photosynthesis is the light dependent reactions. These reactions take place on the thylakoid membrane inside the chloroplast. During this stage light energy is converted to ATP (chemical energy) and NADPH (reducing power).

The second stage of photosynthesis is the Calvin Cycle. These reactions occur in the stroma of the chloroplast. Energy from ATP and electrons from NADPH are used to convert carbon dioxide into glucose and other products.

2. Transpiration is the process by which water is lost in the form of water vapour by evaporation from the surface of leaves and other serial parts of plant .

3. A. Cooling Effect : The water keeps on evaporating from the leaf surface during transpiration . The heat required for evaporation of water is obtained from the plant itself and thus, the plant cools itself when it is hot outside.

B. Transpiration Pull : As water evaporates from the leaf surface, the roots pull up more water from the soil to make up for the water loss during transpiration .As a result, important mineral salts are also brought along with the water. These salts are necessary for the growth of the plant .

4. Leaf Tendrils : Sweet Pea

Spines : Cactus

Scale Leaves : Onion

5. Pitcher Plant, Venus FlyTrap, Blodderwort

6. Normally plants propogate with the help of seeds contained in the fruits . But some new plants may also be produced from other part of the plant such as the roots, stems, and leaves . This type of reproduction is called vegetative propogation .

E.g. = Bryophyllum .

What type of hypothesis is demonstrated by the following statement? "There will be no difference in the number of adverse events

beks73 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "Null hypothesis".

Explanation:

Null hypothesis is characterized by stating that there is no difference between the specified populations, which is the opposite of the alternative hypothesis that states that there is a difference between the populations. Since the hypothesis included in the question states that "There will be no difference in the number of adverse events...", it is concluded that is an example of null hypothesis.
