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.

There are three checkpoints in the cell cycle what is the role.
Tanzania [10]

The 3 checkpoints include G1 where the cell growth is checked, G2 where the integrity of the DNA/chromosome is checked, and M where the integrity of the metaphase plate is checked.

<h3>Cell cycle checkpoints</h3>

There are 3 regulatory checkpoints in the life cycle of cells:

  • G1: the size of the cell, the presence of growth factors, and the integrity of the DNA are checked before the cell irreversibly commits to division.
  • G2: the integrity of the DNA and the correctness of the replication process at the S-phase are checked.
  • M: correct attachment of the spindle fibers to the chromosomes at the metaphase plate is checked.

geniusboy [140]

Answer: B transmitted by contact

Explanation:

Cutaneous Anthrax is spread by contact with the bacterium's spores, which often appear in infectious animal products. Contact is by breathing, eating, or through an area of broken skin. It does not typically spread directly between people. Risk factors include people who work with animals or animal products, travelers, postal workers, and military personnel.Diagnosis can be confirmed by finding antibodies or the toxin in the blood or by culture of a sample from the infected site.

Amphicoelias altus (from the gr. "Hollow character on both high sides") is the only known species of the extinct genus. Titoniense, in what is now North America. Amphicoelias is present in stratigraphic zone 6 of the Morrison Formation

It was also similar in size to Diplodocus, about 25 meters long. Although most scientists have used this data to distinguish Amphicoelias and Diplodocus as separate genera, at least one has suggested that Amphicoelias is probably the largest synonym for Diplodocus.3 Amphicoelias altus, was named by paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope in December of 1877, although it was not published until 1878, for an incomplete skeleton consisting of two vertebrae, a pubis, the hip, and a femur, bone of the upper leg.4 Cope also named a second species, A. fragillimus
