Habitats of the plants:
X : winter or cold mountainous habitat
Y : desert habitat
Z: Aquatic habitat
Explanation:
The X plant leave morphology suggests that thick wax coating of leaf helps it to retain water in it. Such plants are called conifers. They are not shed every year so suitable for sunlight to be captured for photosynthesis. In cold regions heavy wind happens cone like leaf is able to resist the winds and prevent it from falling. The cone like structure of leaves help them let the snowfall.
The plant Y leaves and root morphology suggests that it is well suited for dry lands or desert as where less water is there. They store water for longer time when it rains because of the extensive root system. The spine leaves help in reduced transpiration as water scarcity is there.
The plant Z leaves morphology suggests that thin and ribbon structure leaves can help them resist the pressures of flowing water as there are air space in the leaves which provide buoyancy to the leaves.
Answer:
B. Oncogene
Explanation:
A gene that makes the body cells to divide in an uncontrolled manner is called an oncogene. An oncogene is responsible for the development of tumors due to disturbed regulation of cell division. The gene src makes the cells to enter the process of cell division in response to the growth factors.
However, the mutant src gene does not require the presence of growth factors and signals the cells to enter the process of cell division even in the absence of the growth factors. Since the mutant src gene causes uncontrolled cell division, it represents an oncogene.
Answer:
epiphytic roots
Explanation:
Epiphytic roots are those that live on other plants without parasitism. In this relationship, the epiphyte uses the other vegetable only as a support (phorophyte), removing no nutrients and, consequently, causing no harm to the species.
Epiphyte roots are estimated to represent about 10% of the total amount of vascular plants on the planet. This means that there are on average 29,000 plant species with this peculiar habit of life. These vegetables are mainly found in tropical rainforests and have almost no representatives in places with very low temperatures.
Answer:
Disaccharide: Lactose
Monosaccharide: Fructose
Polysaccharide: Cellulose
Explanation:
A disaccharide is a twelve carbon sugar molecule formed from the condensation of two monosaccharide. An example is Lactose formed from the condensation of glucose and galactose
A monosaccharide is a six carbon sugar molecule. An example is Fructose
A polysaccharide is formed from several monomers of monosaccharide. An example is Cellulose formed from hundred to thousand monomers of glucose
