Guard cells use osmotic pressure to open and close stomata, allowing plants to regulate the amount of water and solutes within them. In order for plants to produce energy and maintain cellular function, their cells undergo the highly intricate process of photosynthesis
PART 1
1. The answer is low frequency electromagnetic waves are able to go around obstacles due to their larger wavelengths. This characteristic of lower frequency waves is due to their ability to diffract around obstacles such as buildings and hills. Therefore, they transmit over long distances unlike high frequency electromagnetic waves.
2. One disadvantage is interference. Electromagnetic waves of the same frequency transmitted at the same time will interfere with one other and therefore the signal will be lost or scrambled. Other electromagnetic waves such as microwaves are affected (interfered with) by weather elements.
3. Analogue signals are continuous signals with wave-like properties while digital signals are discrete signals or pulse (ons (1s) and offs (0s) that represent bits). Analogue signal is represented by a sine-wave while digital signal is represented by discrete squares waves.
4. Digital signals are less immune to eavesdropping unlike analogue signals. Analogue signal is also more prone to distortion unlike digital signal. Digital signals transmit more data than analogue signals. Digital signal draw less energy to transmit compared to analogue signal.
5. Broadcasting of TV is nowadays using digital signals due to the high number of available channels. Computers and the interne utilize digital signaling to transmit data. Controls systems such as radar system also use aspects of analogue waves. Sensors also utilize analogue waves especially transducers such as seismology equipment.

1. One way is by sending radio waves to probes sent out in space to give them commands during exploration. Radio telescopes also pick up naturally-occurring radio waves from space and analyze the data to make conclusions about space and the astronomical objects.
2. Radio waves are used in communication by transmitting data over long distances. One example is its use TV transmission. Another is through military defense of airspace. The radio waves are used to detect enemy intrusion into restricted airspaces using radar.
3. It is common that signal from the environment will be in analogue signal format. The conversion to digital signals allows for the digital equipment in the telescope to interpret and analyze the data. Telescopes prefer digital equipment because they consume less power, handle more data, and are less prone to intrusion, and distortion, hence more secure to analogue equipment.
Lyases
Lyases are class of enzymes that catalyzes reactions involving the formation of double bonds.
Lyases are class of enzymes that catalyzes the joining of C-C ( carbon to carbon), C-O (carbon to oxygen), and C-N (carbon to nitrogen) bonds by hydrolysis or oxidation. These bonds are usually held by the process of elimination which leads to the formation of new double bonds or cyclical molecules. Examples of lyases include; aldolase and adenylate cyclase.
Answer: Substances that are protein based cannot cross the lipid cell membrane, but can exert their effect by binding to the proteins based receptors present on the lipid bilayer.
Explanation:
Hormones such as calcitonin , Parathyroid hormone and pituatry horomones are proteins and water soluble.They cannot cross lipid bilayer but can bind to ligand binding protein receptors.
These receptors are protein macromolecules that are specific in nature for specific hormones.
After binding to the receptors, these hormone-recpetor complexes activate second messengers and regulate the downstream effects.
A team of scientists has consistently gotten the same unexpected results from a set of experiments. Then "Peer review of the scientific methods and data analysis" may helps the scientists to ensure the reliability of the results.
<u>Answer:</u> Option D
<u>Explanation:</u>
The roots of achieving unexpected results lie or depend on scientific methods used and analysis of data performed for acquiring results. Therefore when experiment results into unexpected readings researcher need to give a review of entire method and analysis.
Although rest other points like publication of results, discussing with friends and family members or removal of inconsistent data may or may not help depends upon conditions but reviewing helps as observed in many cases , because one must have performed unintentionally or intentionally an error while going through methods.
