Phytoremediation
describes a potential benefit for the environment that stems from genetic
engineering.
<span>Phytoremediation<span> is the direct use of living green plants for in
situ, or in place, removal, degradation, or containment of contaminants in
soils, sludge, sediments, surface water and groundwater.</span></span>
The correct answer between all the choices given is the
third choice or letter C. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query
and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel
free to ask another question.
Correct answer - Tetrahedral, planar or flat.
Why? - When carbon forms single bonds with other atoms, the shape is tetrahedral. When two carbon atoms form a double bond, the shape is planar, or flat. Single bonds, like those found in ethane, are able to rotate.
In plants, transpiration is a process which is inevitable but potentially harmful, because it can cause loss of water. Loss of water can lead to wilting and eventual death of the plant. Even a little stress can interfere with the plant's growth process.
But, at the same time, transpiration is necessary because of a number of reasons - the transpiration stream aids the processes of mineral absorption, water absorption, energy exchange, helps provide the plant with optimum turgidity, it helps the exchange of gases and so on.
