Witch two examples show adaptations for plants growing the desert

Biology
1 answer:
gladu [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer and Explanation:

In some, the leaves are needle-like and stomata are reduced in number and located in cavities on the epidermis. A layer of moist air builds up in the cavity. This reduces the humidity difference between the intercellular air spaces in the leaf and the immediate external environment thus reducing the rate of transpiration.

In some the epidermis of the leaves is multilayered and is covered with a thick waxy cuticle which reduces water loss through evaporation, e.g. oleander. The cuticle is normally shiny which helps to reflect solar radiation preventing the leaf from heating up rapidly.

Differentiate between density-dependent and
Setler [38]

Answer/Explanation:

Density-dependent limiting factors are non living and biotic factors that affect the size and growth of a population based on the population density, while density-independent limiting factors are those factors that do not depend on the density of a population before they can have an effect on the growth and size of the population.

Examples of density-dependent limiting factors are predation, disease, Parasitism, competition. These rely on the density of a population in order to affect the growth and size of a population.

On the other hand, examples of density-independent limiting factors are pollution, flood, temperature.

why did it take so long between the frist use of the term cell and the development of the cell theory
disa [49]

Robert Hooke observed the cells through a combination of lenses.

After Robert Hooke, the development of microscopy take place. After the development of the microscopy, scientist were able to observe the features of the cell. In order to formulate a cell theory observation of most of the cells was necessary. So, it was necessary to observe different types of cells from different organism. So, the advancement of the microscopy and observation process required for the formulation of the cell theory was the reason for the delayed development of the cell theory.

Evidence that supports the prokaryotic origins of mitochondria and chloroplasts are all of the following except __________.
hodyreva [135]

Your question was incomplete (please check below the full content). The evidence that supports the prokaryotic origins of mitochondria and chloroplasts do not include multiple DNA copies associated with inner membranes.

<h3>What is organellar DNA?</h3>

The organellar DNA is the genome contained within mitochondria and chloroplasts, which is independent of nuclear eukaryotic DNA.

The organellar DNA contains multiple DNA molecules, which are found in association with the inner membrane, ant is not found in prokaryotic life forms.

The complete question in this case is: "Evidence that supports the prokaryotic origins of mitochondria and chloroplasts are the presence of mitochondria, a eukaryote engulfing prokaryotic photosynthetic cells, and non-photosynthetic eukaryotes, EXCEPT."

The endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplasts evolved from prokaryotic microorganisms that entered into a primitive eukaryotic cell.

This theory is supported by certain features of mitochondria and chloroplasts such as a similar size to prokaryotes.

In conclusion, evidence do not include the arrangement of the organellar DNA.
