Rainfall is measured as depth on the surface of the Earth, typically in mm. We know the volume of water in the rain gauge: 1414 cubic centimetres. We know need to know the area of the Earth that this volume fell on. This would be the area of the funnel opening that points up to the sky to catch the rain. We know the diameter is 24 cm. So we need to determine the area of a circle with a diameter of 24 cm. The equation to use is: area = pi * radius^2. Since the radius of a circle is half the diameter, the equation is:

So area is <span>3.14159 * 12^2

= 452.39 cm^2
Volume = depth * area
depth = volume/area
depth = </span>1414/452.39
= 3.13 cm = 31.3 mm

Describe how the role of phloem would would be affected if the leaves start to die off
Naya [18.7K]
The conductive tissues of the angiosperms are the xylem which drives the raw sap and the phloem which conducts the elaborate sap.The phloem, or liber, drives the elaborate sap, solution of organic substances rich in carbohydrates, from the leaves to the other organs.

The elaborate sap (which contains organic substances produces by photosynthesis) is produced in the leaves, where the majority of the chlorophyll subsist, so if the leave die off, the production of organic substances and the elaborate sap are reduced, so its transport by the phloem will be reduced, and this is how the phloem will be affected by the dying of the leaves.

During cell division, what definition correctly describes the process of cytokinesis?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The cell’s membrane separates the cytoplasm, forming two cells.

Explanation:

Cytokinesis is the physical process during cell division that separates the cytoplasm of the parental cell into two different daughter cells. Cytokinesis occurs after the telophase of mitosis. During this process, the cell membrane grows to surround each daughter cell and thus separate them. In animal cells, cytokinesis occurs by a ring of contractile microfilaments that lead to the constriction of the parental cell.
