Water’s properties of surface tension, cohesion, and adhesion are central to the ability of transpiration to pull water up from

the roots to the leaves through the xylem. Sort each statement into the appropriate bin to indicate if the change described in the statement would increase, decrease, or not affect the pull that transpiration generates in the xylem of a tree.

Answer:

6.) larger diameter of stomatal pores

A) Increased transpiration pull

1.) thicker film of water on surface of mesophyll cells

2.) higher relative humidity in air around leaf

B) decreases transpiration pull

3.) less curvature of water surface on mesophyll cell walls

4.) lower rate of water evaporation from surface of mesophyll cells.

5.) larger air space in leaf interior

C) has no effect on transpirational pull.

Explanation:

  • Transpiration primarily occurs through stomatal openings in the leaves. Increasing the diameter or size of these opening would ultimately increase the amount of water escaping from them and therefore, increase the transpiration rate.
  • Higher humidity in the air entails the presence of greater number of water vapours in the atmosphere. Since osmotic pressure plays a major role in transpiration, therefore, this decreases the rate of transpiration.

The loose skin of the ___________ allows for expansion during erection. corona penile glans penile shaft foreskin
DENIUS [597]
<span>Penile shaft

</span>During erection, blood<span> flows into the spaces, causing distention and elevation of the penis. The amount of blood entering the penis can be increased by physical or psychological stimulation. As blood enters, there is a temporary reduction in the rate and volume of blood leaving the penis. The arteries carrying blood to the penis dilate; this, in turn, causes tissue expansion. The veins leading from the penis have funnel-shaped valves that reduce the outflow of blood. As the erectile tissue begins to enlarge, the additional pressure causes the veins to be squeezed against the surrounding fibrous tissue, and this further diminishes the outflow of blood. Essentially, blood becomes temporarily trapped in the organ.</span>

What is the difference between natural selection and selective breeding? Then, give examples of natural selection and selective
serg [7]

Natural Selection is when traits are "naturally" selected for, because "survival of the fitttest."  Example would be a species becoming bigger over time, because the smaller animals of that species were more likely to be eaten by predators.  Natural selection is when the "best" trats are passed down due to chance

Selective breeding is if an outside forece (like a dog breeder) "chooses" a triat to be passed down.  Example, instead of breeding a brown dog with a white dog, the breeder breeds two black dogs together in orer for the litter to all have black fur
