The question is incomplete it has options that are:

(Options for all tiles are reabsorption and secretion) Tiles- 1. Stella's urine sample shows the presence of proteins 2. Johns blood test report indicates a high toxin level 3. Miguel's blood test shows an increase in metabolic waste 4. Janice's urine report shows the presence of vital minerals

Answer:

The match of each situation is described below.

Explanation:

1. The presence of protein in Stella's urine is a indication of impaired filtration or insufficient absorption. The less reabsorption at proximal tubule causes the protein to remain in filtrate and excreting it in urine.

2. The high level of toxin in the blood test of Johns indicates that toxin are not secreted properly out of the body from kidney. Thus, less elimination of toxin increases its amount in blood.

3. The metabolic waste is excreted from the body through kidneys (excretory organ). The metabolic waste will be due to inadequate reabsorption. The kidney might fails to filter waste properly or waste gets reabsorbed can lead to its increase in Miguel's blood.

4. The maximum valuable substances for the body gets reabsorbed after filtration. This allows in retaining minerals in the body. The inadequate reabsorption can lead to release of vital minerals in Janice's urine.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

a. they can fix carbon at the lower CO2 concentrations that develop when the stomata are closed

Explanation:

C4 plants are those that have the capacity to fix CO2 even when a tiny concentration of it is available.

Desert condition is characterized by dryness and strong heat with both condition capable of creating water stress in plant as a result of evapotranspiration. In order to reduce evapotranspiration rate, desert plants (most C4 plants) close their stomata during the day.

<em>Stomata closure limit the diffusion of CO2 into desert plants and the small concentration of CO2 that results is utilized by a special enzyme in the plants.</em>

The correct option is a.
