Answer: B. Combustion

Lavoisier’s oxygen theory of combustion was one of his most notable contribution to science and earned him the title of the “father of modern chemistry”. He recognized the combustible property of oxygen and that phosphorus and other metallic elements increased in terms of weight when burned.

Why is the phloem in a leaf important to the roots of a plant apex?
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- phloem transports photsynthetic products to the roots

Explanation:

Phloem is the vascular tissue which specializes in transporting the solute molecules like sugar in the form of sucrose to in the plants.

The phloem connects the photosynthetic organ (Leaves)  to non-photosynthetic organs (stem and roots) of the plants by transporting the photosynthates or sucrose to various parts.

Since the roots also need the energy to perform metabolic functions so need the photosynthates to synthesize the energy molecule. They receive the photosynthates from the phloem.

Thus, phloem transports photosynthetic products to the roots is the correct answer.

The pictures show close-up views of a fir tree and a cactus.
Akimi4 [234]

The fir tree can be found in the coniferous forest biome, and the cactus can be found in the desert biome.

Option C.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Both the cactus and fir trees are having modified tree leaves due to the same purpose - saving water.

The fir trees are found in the coniferous forests which are mainly seen in mountains or in the temperate region. Both the regions face very cold climates and frequent snowfalls in every years. This is why there's a lack of water in the surroundings. This is why they need to save water and minimize transpiration.

Whereas the cacti are found in desert or semi arid regions where water is itself very scarce and temperature is either very high or very low. So they have their leaves converted into spines which help to reduce transpiration.
