According to the pressure-flow hypothesis, why must sieve-tube elements in phloem be living cells?

Base from the pressure-flow hypothesis, the sieve tube in the phloem should be living cells because sugars are transported across the membranes by the active transport which needs ATP that is produced during respiration. Hope this helps.

Toy car in a science experiment covers 1.6 meters in half a second. If a the car travels at a steady speed, how far will it go i
Tanzania [10]
The answer is D. 32 m.

The simple equation that connects speed (v), time (t), and distance (d) can be expressed as:
v= \frac{d}{t}         ⇒ d=v*t

It is given:
v =  \frac{1.6m}{0.5s} = \frac{1.6m*2}{0.5s*2}= \frac{3.2m}{1s}  = 3.2 m/s
t = 10 s
d = ?

So:
d= v*t=3.2m/s*10s = 32m

What is the correct classification of a mixture in which both a solid and a liquid are visible?
stepan [7]
<span>The answer is a heterogeneous mixture. Mixtures can be homogeneous and heterogeneous. If a solid and a liquid of a mixture cannot be separated and the difference between them is not visible, it is called homogeneous mixture (or solution). If a solid and a liquid of a mixture are visible and can be separated easily, the mixture is called heterogeneous.</span>

A quantity that has direction as well as size is a scalar.<br><br><br> True or False
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.

Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...

A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

Explanation:

hope this helps...

if the current is 0.4 A for the 20 ohm resistor, what is the value for the potential difference? ii) Would it be different for t
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:potential difference is more or less like voltage. Using ohms, V=IR

Where V is Voltage

I is Current =0.4A

R is Resistance=20ohms

V=0.4*20

V=8V

Hence the potential difference will be 8V.

ii) V=0.4*30

V=12V

Explanation:

The voltage of potential difference is directly proportional to the current and the resistance. So if one increase or decrease, it will have impact on the other.

From the calculations, when the resistance increase, the voltage will increase to appreciate the change.
