<span> In plants, water moves from the root to the leaves via the stem. The water then leaves the xylem in the leaf and evaporates into the atmosphere. Water movement is driven by the evaporation through small pores on the undersides of leaves called stomata.</span>

Which of the following statements are correct?
beks73 [17]

Answer: C. . I and III

Explanation:

Scarcity occurs when our want and the needs are more than the available resources that we have. In this case, we will then have to make a choice to be able to choose from the different alternatives that we have.

When we make a choice, the cost of the other alternative that we left is refered to as the opportunity cost. Therefore, the correct options are:

• The "highest-valued alternative given up to get something" is the opportunity cost.

• Scarcity creates opportunity costs

The statement that wealthy economies don't experience opportunity costs is wrong. Every nation experiences opportunity cost.

What are the ancient and modern use of map​
Darya [45]

Answer:

The oldest maps were made by hand of course, and were based on fairly crude measurements of paces, strides and the like and directions only loosely related to NEWS. Clocks helped (as with navigation, latitude could be estimated by seeing what stars were above the horizon (or how high the sun seemed at its zenith), but longitude needed to know when they were seen).

Modern maps have the extraordinary advantage of precise locations of points, and even the benefit of direct overhead observation, and are no longer hand drawn.

What would happen if decomposition did not occur
ozzi
There would be no release of organic nitrogen molecules back to their inorganic state. Dead material would accumulate to choke out livable habitat. 
<span>Plants fix atmospheric carbon in photosynthesis and some species of bacteria fix atmospheric nitrogen so life would continue taking these into the organic cycle but without decomposing fungi & bacteria the cycle would not complete. However the final step of reduction to N2 is only completed by bacteria. In fact bacteria are critical to every step of the nitrogen cycle. </span>


<span>Fungi also decompose dead plants and animals so are detrital feeders putting nitrogen into the nitrogen cycle but not as N2. Fungi cannot reduce N2O to N2. So fungi make N2O as their denitrification product. True denitrification, like nitrogen fixing, does not occur in eukaryotes only bacteria. </span>

When the Framers were designing the federal government, they believed that the House of Representatives would be "the people’s"
Kay [80]

This question asks for an essay, which is a personal task that we cannot provide here. However, we can still develop some ideas that might help you in your work.

The House of Representatives can be considered both the people's branch and the insiders' branch. However, there is no question that the institution is now a lot more restrictive and less connected to the people than it was when the Framers designed it. Therefore, I would argue that it has become an insiders' branch.

First, legislators do not listen to constituents all the time. This is because each legislators has an enormous amount of constituents, all of which have very different characteristics. Moreover, legislators need to reconcile the interests of their constituents with those of other groups.

Second, the policymaking process makes it difficult for the public to monitor and evaluate the House. This is because common people do not have access to the necessary information to make this possible. Moreover, the process is long and complicated, and cannot be easily understood by all people.

Finally, partisan gerrymandering and polarization means that certain groups of constituents are much more important to a politician's career and support than others. This includes constituents in swing states, or constituents who support a particular party. Therefore, these constituents might see their interests represented more often than others.
