So in this scenario, we have to consider two things: the plants are super different from each other. Some plants have huge leaves, others have tiny ones-- some plants have really long roots, others barely have them; it is because of these differences that the some plants survive better than others.
Say that at the start, plants are thriving like crazy-- I mean they're everywhere man.
But afterwards, this huge environmental change occurs.
Plants that have bigger leaves lose more water due to a greater rate of transpiration. Plants with shorter roots can't reach the water deep in the soil.
Plants with smaller leaves, and waxier cuticles could protect their water more. Plants with longer roots could get more water.
Basically, all plants that have good traits for drier environments tend to survive more.
Because they tend to survive more-- they could make more baby plants (i.e. greater rate of reproduction)
Because they could make more baby plants, the overall newer generation of plants will have more of these hardy, dry-environment adapted plant traits (i.e. phenotype).
Answer:
Cell membrane and vacuole
Explanation:
Endocytosis is a process that occur in living cells in which substances are engulf in to the cells through the membrane to form vacuole. This occur when the cell membrane engulf materials into the cell and form vessicles called endosome and it move round the cell where it is digested.
Answer:
Australopithecus afarensis
Explanation:
Lucy was the first Australopithecus afarensis species found. It represents 40% of the skeleton of a female. It was discovered in Africa in 1974, near the village Hadar in Awash valley of Afar triangle, Ethiopia and is dated about 3.2 million years ago. Notable characteristics includes rib cage and plant based diet, cranial specimens, pelvic girdle, ambulation etc.
Answer:
The enzyme shows increased activity up to a certain temperature.
Explanation:
An enzyme is mostly a protein molecule/a biologist catalyst that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction in a cell.
Enzymes lower the reaction's activation energy by attaching to the reactant molecule and positioning itself in a manner that readily facilitates chemical-bond breaking and forming process.
As the temperature increases, the rate of enzyme catalyzed reaction increases up to a maximum level (optimum temperature) and then decreases abruptly with any further temperature increase.This optimum temperature is 40°C for most animal enzymes.The abrupt decline in the rate of reaction after the optimum temperature is caused by the denaturing of enzymes by temperatures above 40°C.
