Capillary action causes water to move throughout plants.

Answer:

D. Capillary action

Explanation:

Capillary action refers to the ability of the water to move in narrow tubes due to its abilities of cohesion and adhesion. Water molecules have a tendency to stick to the polar charged atoms or molecules (the adhesion) and to stick to one another (the cohesion).  

The tendency of cohesion and adhesion allow the water to move up in the narrow tubes such as celery stalk against the gravitational force. This upward movement of water through the stem of plants is called capillary action.

Which population is limited by density-dependent factors?
dedylja [7]

Answer: (c) A local wolf population experiences a lethal epidemic of parvovirus.

Explanation:

A limiting factor is one which is capable of limiting the population of the species. It can be a living factor or a non-living factor.  

The density dependent limiting factor is a factor which affects the population of a species depending upon the size of the population. There are many density dependent limiting factors such as disease, migration, predation and food.  

C is the correct option, this is because of the fact that the epidemic outbreak can spread over to the large number of members of the population. If larger the population size more likely will be the chances of spreading.

Which statement is not evidence for evolution of land plants from green algae? Both plants and green algae have cellulose in the
Lynna [10]

Answer:

All green algae produce large, stationary eggs

Explanation:

The research on the evolution of land plants has shown that the plants have evolved from the green algae especially the "Charophytes" which grows in on the rocks attached to the rocks on the seashore.

The evidence that plants evolved from the green algae was supported by the:

1. The storage material of both the plants and algae is the same that is starch

2. both the algae and plants have the sporophytic and gametophytic life cycle

3. Both the plants and algae possess the same type of the photosynthetic pigments like chlorophyll a,b,c,d and others.

4. Both have a cell wall made of cellulose

But the green algae produce the stationary eggs does not support the hypothesis as the plants not necessary produce the stationary eggs.

Thus, the selected option is correct.
