Explanation:

1. Stomata are the openings on the leaf for the exchange of the water and air from the plant to the environment. It actually helps plants to breath, so it can also be seen as nostrills of the plants. They are present on either side of the leaves. Opening a stomata is like opening the doors for the exchange of the gases . This comes at a cost.

Due to sunlight and heat from the environment water content of the leaf is also remarkably lost when stomata opens, which is protected otherwise due to outer waxy layer of the leaf. To reduce this, most of the stomata are present on the lower surface of the leaves, as it will reduce the possibility of water loss due to high sunlight during the afternoon.

2. In aquatic plants you can find most of the stomata present on the upper surface of the leaf. As the plants float on the water surface, its lower epidermis is stuck to the water, hence respiration is least likely there as there is no contact of the stomata with the air.

Where is industry now shifting from in the world?
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The industry nowadays is shifting from the more developed countries to less developed countries.

Explanation:

A is not correct because the less developed countries didn't really have any industry to start with, let alone for it to shift to another place from them.

B is not correct because the industry has been moving with the process of globalization, thus it has been shifting for some time now to the global markets.

C is correct because the industry from the more developed countries has seen a great opportunity and potential for making more profit in the less developed countries, and the reason for that is cheaper labor force, cheaper materials, and lower taxes.

D is not correct because these two regions are pretty much on the same level when it comes to industry, so there wouldn't really make any sense that it shifts from one to another.

This passage is mainly about
N76 [4]

Answer:

This passage is mainly about asteroids striking Earth.

Explanation:

The presented passage is mostly focusing on asteroids striking Earth. It is something that has been happening since Earth has formed, and it will happen in the future as well. The vast majority of the asteroids don't really have any impact on Earth, but some have an impact that is devastating and long-lasting.

In the earlier stages of Earth, many more asteroids were falling on the surface, and the main reason for that has been the lack of atmosphere or a very thin atmosphere. As the atmosphere started to take shape and became similar to what is nowadays, the asteroid impacts decreased significantly because the atmosphere was managing to burn them and break them apart. This is not possible with all asteroids though, as some are so big and fall under an angle where the atmosphere doesn't really have any impact on them so when they fall on the surface they are able to cause sudden climatic changes, mass devastation, and mass extinction of species. Such an asteroid will be in a direction to hit Earth in the future for sure, the question remains will humans with their technology be able to prevent an impact or not.
