In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes _____.

Biology
1 answer:
Vanyuwa [196]3 years ago

Answer:

Photorespiration

Explanation:

RuBisCo is the enzyme that catalyzes the first reaction of the Calvin cycle which in turn is a rate-limiting step. Photorespiration is the process during which the enzyme RuBP carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCo) catalyzes the reaction between oxygen and ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate to form 3-phosphoglycerate and 2-phosphoglycolate.

These two products are useless for the metabolism of cells. Photorespiration occurs since the RuBisCo enzyme has an affinity for both CO2 and oxygen. When CO2 is not available, as it occurs when plants close stomata during hot dry days to prevent water loss, photorespiration takes place. Therefore, stomatal closing in C3 plants to prevent water loss promotes photorespiration.

Ostrovityanka [42]

The movement of food through the esophagus  is called peristalsis.

<h3>What is the buccal cavity?</h3>

The mouth is what we generally call the buccal cavity. It is an opening that contains the teeth and the tongue. The tongue plays the important role of serving as the organ of taste while the teeth serves to marsh food. It is the white strong structure that occurs in the mouth that enables is to masticate our food. Also in the mouth we have the salivary gland which plays the role of secreting the saliva and we know that the saliva contains from enzymes that makes it possible for the digestion of food to commence at the moth. It the follows that the buccal cavity is made up of the teeth, tongue and salivary glands.

Food moves into the stomach via the esophagus. Thus movement is slow and is aided by the muscles that line the gastro intestinal tract. As such, movement of food through the esophagus  is called peristalsis.
