Answer:
A. Transport of materials in xylem
Xylem tissue helps in the transport of water and minerals
Water is transported upwards from roots to aerial parts of plants
Transport in xylem requires physical forces such as transpiration pull.
B. Transport of materials in phloem
Phloem tissue helps in the transport of food.
Transport of food in phloem requires energy in the form of ATP.
Food is transported in both upward and downward directions.
Answer:
B. Replanting trees in deforested areas.
Autonomic nervous system (ANS) is the branch of the nervous system that provides unconscious control of basic body processes that is consists of two divisions; the sympathetic and parasympathetic. These two divisions have opposing effects on the internal organs they innervate. The Parasympathetic nervous system is the division that balances the actions of the sympathetic nervous system by slowing body processes, returning the body to homeostasis once a stressor has passed. The Sympathetic nervous system is the emergency system. Its major function is the fight-or-flight response in reaction to a threat. It speed-up key body processes to prepare the body for physical action.
Answer:
CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG
Explanation:
Changes occur in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA molecule. These changes referred to as MUTATION are usually due mistakes during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substances). Mutation can be of different types depending on the kind of change that occured to the nucleotide sequence. Based on this question, one of the mutation types is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.
Substitution mutation is a kind of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base replaces another in the sequence.
The option that suits an example of substitution mutation is: CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG because Guanine nucleotide replaces Cytosine nucleotide in the third CODON i.e. TAC becomes TAG.
