1) Long slender leaves ("needles") because:
a) They don't lose a lot of water from photorespiration b/c of low surface area
b) Snow doesn't pile into the branches and break the branches off (snow is very heavy). the needles don't catch and hold very much snow.
2) The wood is soft and bendable. Strong wind doesn't break it, because it flexes. Any snow that does manage to pile on is dropped when the wind blows, or when the weight of the snow bends the Branch down.
Hope this helps! :)

The hydrogen ion concentration of a solution is indicated by its<br> ___ value.
rosijanka [135]

The hydrogen ion concentration of a solution is indicated by its <u>pH </u>value.

Explanation:

  • A measure of acidity or alkalinity of water soluble substances (pH stands for 'potential of Hydrogen'). A pH value is a number from 1 to 14, with 7 as the middle point.
  • Under normal circumstances this means that the concentration of hydrogen ions in acidic solution can be taken to be equal to the concentration of the acid.
  • The pH is then equal to minus the logarithm of the concentration value.
  • Values below 7 indicate acidity which increases as the number decreases, 1 being the most acidic.
  • The pH of a solution is a measure of hydrogen ion concentration, which in turn is a measure of its acidity.
  • Pure water dissociates slightly into equal concentrations of hydrogen and hydroxyl (OH−) ions. For a neutral solution, [H+] is 10−7, or pH = 7.

A trail pattern leading away from the victim at a stabbing scene was most likely created by:
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer: B. Blood dripping from the murder weapon.

Explanation: In bloodstain pattern analysis, blood spatters behave in accordance with some scientific laws in relation to what caused the bloodshed, the position of the victim and the perpetrators, and the velocity at which the blood is spattered. Since the blood trail is leading away from the stabbed victim, the blood trail is most likely created by the dripping of blood from the murder weapon
