Answer: a. Stomata open at Night

Explanation:

As a tactic to minimize photorespiration in warm regions, many water-storing plants such as cacti and pineapples modified its method of carbon fixation. This process is called Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM), following the plant family Crassulaceae, in which it was first identified. In these plants, the stomata (singular, stoma), specialized openings in the leaves of all plants through which CO2 enters and water vapor is lost, open during the night and close during the day. This model of stomatal opening and closing is the opposite of that in most plants.

Does wind and weather diverge at the equator?
fgiga [73]
Winds are light at the equator because of the weak horizontal pressure gradients located there. The warm surface conditions result in locally low pressure. ... At this latitude surface high pressure causes the air near the ground to diverge.

Describe how the ecosystem changed from figure 1 to figure 4.<br> no links, please. <br> thank you
AysviL [449]

Answer:

In the ecosystem, the tides of the water rise in each figure. In figure 4, there is an increase in land animals present, and a lower amount of aquatic animals present. In the first figure, there are no birds, however there are multiple in the rest of the figures, this is possibly due to migration in the winter or that the ecosystem has drawn birds near. The types of plants change throughout each figure which is most likely to new adaptations such as more water available. The tides most likely rose because of more precipitation.

Explanation:

I hope this helped.

Look at the diagram below.
Vesna [10]

Answer:

<em>In order to reach equilibrium, water will move outside the cell to reach equilibrium. </em>A cell tends to lose or gain water in order to reach equilibrium.

If there are more number of solutes outside the cell, then the water will move out of the cell in order to maintain equilibrium. On the other hand, if there are more number of solutes inside the cell then the water will move inside the cell to maintain equilibrium.

How Many Ion Does The Element Boron Has?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
Boron's atomic number is 5, so for its 5 protons, it should have 5 electrons if it's neutral.

To make it an ion, Boron's charge would have to be negative or positive. It could lose one electron to have a charge of +1, gain an electron to be -1 ion.

Ions aren't at specific number. So the answer depends on Boron's tendency to gain or lose electrons.
