Answer:
<u>Living things are derived from single units and show several characteristics such as growth respiration, response to stimuli, homeostasis, evolution, and reproduction.</u>
Explanation:
The natural world comprises several biotic or living and abiotic, non-living factors. Cells, are considered the smallest unit capable of supporting life. All living, or biotic factors must be able to grow, carry out respiration- a process that produces energy, and reproduce (pass on genes). They also show some level of organization or complexity, and respond to stimuli. Additionally, living organisms exhibit homeostasis or control over their internal environment and evolve or change over time to adapt to their external environments.
Answer: cell membrane
such as water, micro-organism
physical process
simple diffusion, osmosis and filtration
such as potasssium permaganate in water,urea a liver waste diffuses from the body and the kidney help in filtering it out
physiological processs
active transport, phagocytosis and pinocytosis
such as soduim-potassium pump, exocytosis
Explanation: transportation in and out of cell is done in different ways listed above but a barrier to this movement is the cell membrane which is an outer covering of the cell. it protect the cell and only some materials can penetrate the cell membrane e.g micro-organism, water e.t.c. the various physical and physiological processes are the various ways substance cna be liquid, solid or gas are transported within or outside the cell e.g food
The statement that best describes the Americans who served in the Vietnam war was most of the US soldiers were all young, working class volunteers. The correct answer is D.
Answer:
1.
Explanation:
Xylem cell is a plant vascular tissue that conveys water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant and also provides physical support. Xylem tissue consists of a variety of specialized, water-conducting cells known as tracheary elements.
2. Phloem is the vascular tissue in charge of the transport and distribution of organic nutrients. The phloem is also a pathway to signaling molecules and has a structural function in the plant body.
3. Stomata are composed of a pair of specialized epidermal cells referred to as guard cells. Stomata regulate gas exchange between the plant and environment and control water loss by changing the size of the stomatal pore.
4. Guard cells optimize leaf gas exchange in response to changing environmental conditions and their turgor is controlled by alterations in atmospheric CO2 concentration, light intensity, humidity, and the drought hormone abscisic acid.
