<span>Enzymes are catalysts in chemical reactions. What this means is that they speed up chemical reactions, which in turn means that all the actions necessary for our metabolisms occur as a result of catalysts. This goes from fighting illnesses and diseases to dissolving food. We couldn't live without them because our metabolisms would be so slow that we would die as nothing could work.</span>

Explain the increase of dark peppered moths from 2% to 95% referencing the natural selection process
amm1812
<span>During the peak of industrialization, there was a drastic change in the environment in Europe. Due to increased use of fossil fuels to run machines, the environment in urban centers was black due to soot produced by industries and settled on buildings and the environment. Therefore black moths were able to camouflage in this environment hence evade predators. White moths were, conversely, more conspicuous in this environment hence predated on more. The black moths were, therefore, more likely to pass their genes to the next generation compared to white moths</span>

How are vascular and non-vascular plants different, and how do each of them work through osmosis?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Vascular plants have tubelike structures that carry water, nutrients, and other substances throughout the plant. Nonvascular plants do not have these tubelike structures and use other ways to move water and substances.

Vascular plants are said to have a true stem, leaves, and roots due to the presence of vascular tissues. Non-vascular plants do not have true roots, stems, or leaves and the tissues present are the least specialized forms of tissue. Some examples of vascular plants include maize, mustard, rose, cycad, ferns, clubmosses, grasses. Some examples of non-vascular plants include moss, algae, liverwort, and hornwort.

How vascular plants work through osmosis

The xylem of vascular plants consists of dead cells placed end to end that form tunnels through which water and minerals move upward from the roots to the rest of the plant. Through the xylem vessels, water enters and leaves cells through osmosis.

How non vascular plants work through osmosis

Because non vascular plants do not have the xylem and phloem ystem, they absorb water right into their cells through their leaves when it rains or when dew falls. Internal cells get their water by passive osmosis. While, they use rhizoids to transport nutrients and minerals.
