One example can be the needle shaped leaves.
In desert areas, there are not much water sources. So basically, any drop of water is precious. To help prevent water loss of plants, for example cactus has very thin leaves that are needle shaped. Or some even don't have any leaves. This can reduce the surface area of leaves and thus reduce the water evaporating to the outer environment.
Another example also shown on cactus is that they have very thick waxy cuticle. It can also prevent water from evaporating from the stem. So that's why you see the stem is very shinny.
I don’t know 22 but I think 21 is B
The enzyme in saliva is called 'amylase', which is also called ptyalin.
Ans.
Lipid bilayer is made up of two layers of phospholipids, which show polar, hydrophilic (polar) phosphate groups on surface of cell membrane and non-polar, hydrophobic (non-polar) tails on inner sides. The hydrophobic nature of cell membrane allows transport of small, hydrophobic molecules more quickly than larger, hydrophilic molecules.
Thus, 'the non-polar, uncharged or small molecules, such as water, oxygen and other gases, will diffuse across the lipid membrane most quickly, while the polar, charged or large molecules, such as ions, proteins, and salts, will diffuse most slowly.'
Answer:
C. CGA-UUA-CUA
Explanation:
The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a double helix molecule which is composed of four letters or 'nucleotides': guanine (G), cytosine (C), adenine (A) and thymine (T). The base-pair rules state that in the DNA double helix, G always pairs with C, while A always pairs with T. Moreover, during transcription, a base named uracil (U) replaces T in the resulting RNA sequence. Therefore, in this case, the complementary sequence (i.e., antisense strand) to the mRNA sequence is CGA-UUA-CUA.
