Answer:

(B) open stomata only at night, limiting water loss because of heat and low humidity.

Explanation:

CAM plants are found in the regions characterized by very hot and dry environmental conditions. These plants reduce the water loss through transpiration by exhibiting CAM photosynthesis.  

They open the stomata during night time when the air is cooler and rich in moisture. They take in CO2 during night time and fix it into the oxaloacetate which in turn is converted into malate and is stored in the vacuoles.  

During day time, stomata remain closed to prevent water loss and the CO2 trapped during night time (released by decarboxylation of malate) enter the Calvin cycle.

I need an hypothisis on How does temperature change affect surface tension?
Dafna1 [17]

Hypothesis: I believe an increase in temperature would lead to a decrease in surface tension.

Here's why: As the temperature increases, the molecular interaction between the liquids molecules becomes weaker because the hydrogen bond is the main factor for association between two molecules. It is a very weak bond to begin with, so when the temperature increases, it just further weakens it.

You can physically see the ____ of a trait, but not the ____ .
Nina [5.8K]

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is -

1.) A. Phenotype

B. Genotype

Phenotype corresponds to the physical appearance of a particular characteristic or morphological form in an individual.

Example - Hair color, plant height, skin color.

On the other hand, genotype corresponds to the genetic makeup of an individual. It is depicted by the gene that is present in the individual organism. Example- Genotype for dwarf height in pea plant is 'tt', which carries both recessive gene variants.

Thus, we can physically see the phenotype of a trait, but not the genotype.

About 10 minutes after janice starts her 30-minute walk on the treadmill, she begins to perspire, which helps to cool her off. h
Vladimir79 [104]
<span>Homeostasis Body's tendency to maintain a steady internal state; physiological equilibrium or balance around an optimal set point. [hot=sweat, cold=shivers] Janice sweating on the treadmill in order for her body to cool off is an example of Homeostasis. Homeostasis is the body's ability to keep a steady internal temperature, state, equilibrium or balance around the ideal set point. This means when you are hot, you sweat to cool the body down and when you are cold your body shivers to help warm it up.</span>
