Biology

Virty [35]3 years ago
6 0
The borders of the plates are drawn after the scientists noticed and studied some of the natural phenomenons, like volcanic activity, mid ocean ridges, riffs, movement of the continents, earthquakes... Once these were studied, and was figured out that they are all consequence of the crust layer being broken to multiple pieces and the pressure from the mantle layer from bellow, the scientists used this activities like indicators where the plate's borders are to create a map of all of them (studied so far, at least) and draw the lines between them.

seeds that are planted upside down are still able to grow into mature plants which explanation best explains this phenomenon?​
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

This question is incomplete but the completed question is below

eeds that are planted upside down are still able to grow into mature plants. Which explanation best explains this phenomenon?

(a)The roots change into branches, and the branches turn into roots.

(b)The roots grow toward the force of gravity, and the shoots grow away.

(c)The plant will become a smaller version of a mature plant.

(d)Roots always grow toward the dark, and shoots grow toward the light.

Two options appear to be correct here: options B and D

Explanation:

Regardless of the direction the seed is planted, the seed has the ability to re-position itself via the help of growth hormones that respond to gravity and redirect the seed into the proper orientation. However, after re-orientation of the seed, the root grows toward the direction of gravity (a process known as gravitropism) while the shoot grows toward the direction of sunlight (a process known as phototropism). Even though two options appear to be correct here, the most correct option based on he question is b
