Which is the BEST explanation for how fluid pressure from freshwater helps plants to stand upright?

Biology
1 answer:
vovangra [49]3 years ago

Answer;

D) Freshwater is a hypotonic solution, which causes the plant cells to swell because of turgor pressure.

Explanation;

Osmosis is the process by which water molecules move from the region where they are highly concentrated to a region where they are lowly concentrated through a semipermeable membrane. One application of osmosis is support in plants.

Hypotonic solution is a type of solution that has more solvent molecules in this case water and less solute molecules.

Fresh water is hypotonic to plant cells thus the plant cells absorbs water osmotically, increases in size and becomes turgid, which generates an outside opposite pressure that is equal to the wall pressure which keeps the plants upright.

A laboratory experiment followed the growth of a flour beetle population over time. at first the population increased dramatical
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>We can hypothesize that when the population density reaches a certain level, that flour beetles experience biological stresses not unlike that seen other animals, such as mice, where it becomes more beneficial to the population as a whole to implement control measures to prevent a population collapse due disease or a sudden decrease in food; even though at the present time resources seem more than abundant to handle the increased population.</span>

gametes are _____ so that when fertilization occurs, the resulting zygote will have the characteristic number of chromosomes for
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Diploid

Explanation:

Almost all the animals have a diploid-dominant life cycle. In the early stage of embryo development, the germ cells are made in gonads which undergoes mitosis and meiosis to make more germ cells and haploid gametes respectively. So the resulting zygote formed by fertilization having 46 chromosomes, 23 from each human sperm and eggs. That the reason why the resulting zygote have the characteristic number of chromosomes of that particular species.
