In plants, like the potato plant, which organ is used primarily for food storage rather than food production?

The correct answer is - the root/the tuber.

The potato plant is a plant that is part of the tuber plants. This type of plants do not use their root as the other plants do. The root in these plants is used both for food production and for food storage, with the food storage actually being its primary function.

Because of this, these plants have roots that rounded or elongated, but solid and as one part, not divided into multiple parts. Their roots have been called tubers because of their shape, but also because of their function. The biggest portion of the stored food in the tubers is starch. The potato is actually the vegetable that has the biggest amount of natural sugars in it through the high amount of starch.

That would be the tuber, which is formed from a root or stem of a plant.

What effect does the size of an amino acid on the retention factor?
Anarel [89]

According to proteomic data analysis, the N-terminus residues highly influence the retention of amino acids due to their role in ion-pairing. Every amino acid has a retention coefficient factor depending on the N-terminus residues it contains. Therefore, the longer the amino acid the higher the likelihood of it having high N-terminus residues and consequent high retention co-efficient.

Can you guys please help me I have a test tomorrow
shtirl [24]

Answer:

11. b.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis stores energy in carbohydrates, cellular respiration releases energy from carbohydrates.

Glucose, C₆H₁₂O₆, is a carbohydrate.

Write out the equations:

<u>Photosynthesis</u>

carbon dioxide + water + light energy => oxygen + glucose/sugar

CO₂ + H₂O + light => O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆

The carbohydrate is stored in the plant until it needs it, like to perform cellular respiration.

<u>Cellular Respiration</u>

oxygen + glucose/sugar => carbon dioxide + water + ATP energy

O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆ => CO₂ + H₂O + ATP

The carbohydrate is used to make energy. Energy is released from carbohydrates.

Glucose, C₆H₁₂O₆, is a carbohydrate.

Fault in other options:

a. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration both occur in plants. Plants have mitochondria for cellular respiration.

c. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and cellular respiration releases carbon dioxide.

d. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide, cellular respiration uses oxygen.

According to the envelope in Model 1, who is supposed to receive the letter?
matrenka [14]

If you are referring to the model attached, then the answer would be:

<u><em>Jane Doe</em></u>

This model demonstrates how one can categorize something based on certain information from general to specific characteristics. For example, many people have the same names, so how would we know who the person is referring to? Using specific details like the house number, building name or apartment, street and zip code will help narrow down who the letter is addressed to specifically. This is a method they use to organize organisms into specific classifications, based on specific characteristics.

List two ways that a fuel cell differs from an ordinary battery
Alecsey [184]

The simple answer is that in a battery the chemical reactions that produce the electrical current are produced from materials that are already in the battery itself, whereas in a fuel cell, the reactants, almost always Hydrogen and Oxygen are fed to the cell like an external fuel.

. However, while a battery makes electricity from the energy it has stored inside the battery, a fuel cell makes its electricity from fuel in an external fuel tank This means that while a battery may run dead, a fuel cell will make electricity as long as fuel is supplied. For hydrogen fuel cells, hydrogen is the fuel and it's stored in a tank connected to the fuel cell. When hydrogen in the tank runs low, you refill it, or replace it with a full tank.
