Answer:

Sodium helps to maintain the normal plasma osmolarity as well as blood pressure.

Explanation:

The given points that can be applied for maintaining electroneutrality is

1  low sodium stimulates the secretion of aldosterone .

2  regulates plasma osmolarity

low sodium stimulates the secretion of aldosterone from the adrenal cortex that boost the reabsorption of Na+ ions from the glomerular filtrate

Maintaining electronutrality is the other meaning regulating plasma osmolarity.

To understand food chains and food webs, we must start with where the energy begins. Sunlight is energy, and plants use this energy to turn water and carbon dioxide into plant food. This process is called “photosynthesis”. Plants also need minerals and nutrients. They get these from the soil when their roots take up water. While this might not sound like the kind of food you would want to eat, this plant food allows plants to grow, flower, and produceproduce things like acorns, potatoes, carrots, apples, pecans, and many other kinds of fruits.

Because plants make so much energy, they are called “producers”. Their ability to use sunlight to make food makes them a very important source of energy for other living things. Think about all the animals that eat plants. Wow, it's mind-boggling! Now, think about all the places that plants grow. From the oceans to the deserts to the mountaintops, plants can be found nearly everywhere basking in the sunlight and making their own food. And wherever plants grow, animals that depend upon them are sure to be found.

How does a vascular system serve the needs of a plant cell??
saw5 [17]
We first have to understand what a vascular system is. A vascular system consists of the water-carrying tube(xylem) and food-carrying tube(phloem). These 2 tubes are very essential for plants to survive. The xylem transports water to the leaves thru the stem to nourish the leaves so as to make food. The word equation is : Water + Carbon dioxide ----> Glucose + Oxygen. The phloem on the other hand transports the food from the leaves that creates them amd sent them to all parts of the plant. It is often a misconception that food is only sent to the fruits. The plant receives nutrition from the food that is made by the leaves. Overall the vascular system plays a very importamt roles in the survival of the plant.

To put it simple, think of the vascular system of a plant like the circulatory system of a human. Without the circulatory system, the human is unable to receive oxygen for breathing and remove carbon dioxide which is acidic in nature and pose a threat to the human body.
