Answer:
The correct answer is - Roots allow plants to obtain water and nutrients, while shoots allow plants to obtain gases and sunlight.
Explanation:
Plants have two major parts of the body normally root and shoot. roots are the parts of plants that usually present under the ground and absorbed the essential nutrients and minerals for the life of the plant. Water is also absorbed by the roots that are used in the various processes such as transpiration and photosynthesis.
The shoot includes stem and leaves and responsible for the exchange of gases, particularly taking in carbon dioxide and removes oxygen with help of stomata. These also absorbs sunlight with help of chlorophyll present on the leaves.
Answer:
response to stimuli / tropism
Explanation:
The plants and animals always respond to stimuli. It is an innate character of all living things. When a bright light falls on the eye, it closes immediately. This is responding to the stimuli. When someone touches the leaves of touch-me-not plants it closes its leaves due to the external stimuli.
The plants respond to the light. Because it does photosynthesis in the presence of light. Therefore, the leaves and branches of the plants always bend towards the light. This process is called phototropism.
Similarly, the roots of the plants move towards gravity under the ground. This is called geotropism.
Besides phototropism and geotropism, other types of stimuli are there - hydrotropism(response to the water), chemotropism(response to certain chemicals).
That's why the plants growing on the windowsill move towards outside where light comes.
The most common source of contamination with E.coli is by eating contaminated food like meat and eggs.
Answer:
The correct answer is : temperature.
Explanation:
Siamese cats are known and characterized on the basis of the regions that are light or dark on the part of the body of these cats as according the cooler part of the body.
It is influenced by the enzyme that is active due to low temperature that leads to the formation of the dark pigment in the cooler area and in the part of the body that are higher in temperature are lighter due to inactivity of the enzyme.
Thus, the correct answer is : temperature.
