Answer: In the roots

The leaves of a plant make sugar during the process of photosynthesis. To make sugar, the plant uses chlorophyll, energy from sunlight, carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water. Some of the glucose (sugar) is changed to starch which they typically store in the roots for later use.

Plants typically store their starches and sugars for later use in the roots.
The root is the organ of a plant that lies under the surface of the soil or grows up above the ground or usually above water. Part of the functions of the root is that it serves as storage of food and nutrients. Plants create simple sugars, such as glucose and fructose, and starches which they use immediately or stores in the roots for later use.

7. Phytochrome prevents seeds of some plants from germinating when they are in deep shade by the: absorption of far-red waveleng

SIZIF [17.4K]

<h2>Function of Phytochrome </h2>

Explanation:

The color of light that they absorb maximally by the two types such as Pfr is a blue-green structure that ingests far-red light (730 nm) and Pr is a blue structure that retains red light (660 nm)
Pfr assimilates far-red light, it is changed over to the Pr structure
Pfr can spontaneously revert to the Pr form structure in obscurity dark over time = dark reversion Pfr is additionally helpless to proteinases
Pfr contains some red light, so in red light 15% Pr and there is a parity of 85% Pfr.
The phytochrome (Pr) is changed over to the organically dynamic structure red light with the Pfr under illumination
Darkness and Far -red light convert the particle back to the inactive form.

4. Which of the following factors did not contribute to the genetic diversification of the Galápagos Island finches studied by D

lakkis [162]

Answer:

c. The islands are only 100 km from Ecuador, so they receive a continual input of new genes from the mainland

Explanation:

The Galapagos islands are not connected with the mainland. They are isolated islands and are located away from the mainland. Due to their geographical isolation, Galapagos islands do not experience the migration of populations from the mainland. So, there is no gene flow to Galapagos islands from the mainland.

Further, diversification of islands needs them to be isolated from the mainland so that the inhabiting populations can diversify to accommodate in available niches.
