Answer:

Option D, leaves

Explanation:

The maximum concentration of zinc is accumulated both in the leaves and stem of corn and tobacco plants. But comparatively it is higher in the leaves than in the stem.

Zinc is a micro nutrient as it is required only in a small amount and it is found that plants will lesser zinc concentration dry out easily.  

Also the relation between the zinc absorbed is linear to the accumulation of zinc in the leaves.  Hence, the higher the zinc absorbed in the corn and tobacco plants, the higher is the zinc accumulating in the leaves.

Hence, option D is correct

Two linebackers tackle a quarterback. One hit him with a force of 105 N and the other hit him with a force of 150 N. They are bo
Setler [38]

The net force on the quarterback when he is hit by two linebackers running eastwards is 255N.

Force is a vector quantity, we must recall that if two forces act in the same direction, we obtain the net force by adding the two forces together. If two forces act in opposite direction, we obtain the net force by subtracting the forces from each other.

Since the both linebackers are running East, the net force is obtained as; 105 N + 150 N = 255 N.
