Answer:Option C

Explanation:

Wilting can be defined as the process in which the leaves in the plants drops down.In normal conditions the water is absorbed by the roots and then it is stored in the vacuoles of the cell.

When there is lack of water in the plant body then the xylem releases all of its water and the leaves of the plant drops down.

This is done in order to decrease the surface area of exposure so that there is less requirement of water.

The xylem releases all its water when we observe plants that wilt.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wilting is a process where the plant loses its rigidity and droops down. To understand it better the water is absorbed through the roots and aids in the functioning of the plant. The excessive water is stored inside the vacuole when during water scarcity releases water.

But during the drought conditions the water is lost completely causing the leaves to shrink. The xylem starts releasing all its water leaving a less surface area. Hence the leaf shrinks and wilting occurs.

Use mitochondrion in a sentence
olga nikolaevna [1]
Mitochondrion a singular word for mitochondria is a "powerhouse" organelle of the cell.

<span>Mitochondrion is an important organelle in most living organisms because it is where biochemical processes of living organisms such as respiration takes place. The mitochondrion has a smooth outer membrane but a larger inner membrane. The inner membrane is about 70% protein and is very convoluted because that can even fit inside the outer membrane. Mitochondrion is the carrier of the Kreb's cycle in the matrix and it is responsible for the transfer of electron chain found in the cristae of the inner membrane.</span>
