Why rhizoids not called roots?

1 answer:

4 0

Most plants have roots, but there are some
exceptions. The exceptions are bryophytes
and the groups of green algae that are
classified as plants. Bryophytes have rootlike
structures called rhizoids for absorbing
water, but because rhizoids lack vascular
tissue they are not considered roots.

Number 1: The Circulatory System is a vast network that contains organs and vessels.

number 2: Arteries have a thick wall which helps a powerful pressure from the heart.

number 3: Without the Circulatory System the body wouldn't be unable to maintain a internal environment.

number 4: The Circulatory and Respiratory system both have gas to help a or animal live in there internal environment.

number 5: Blood vessels brings oxygen to the tissues and absorbs carbon dioxide and other waste products to clear the lungs. And with out oxygen the tissues won't absorb carbon dioxide to clear out the lungs.

... termed "hypotonic," meaning less solids (or more diluted) than inside the cell. For fluid movement in/out of cells, water will diffuse (via osmosis) from the hypotonic solution to the hypertonic one, assuming a permeable barrier (i.e. cell membrane) allows it. With this case, water will flow into the cell from outside.

In Drosophila, the genes for body coloration and eye size are on different chromosomes. Normal-colored bodies are dominant to eb

Yuri [45]

Answer:

225 flies

Explanation:

Let gene for body colour : A

Let gene for eye type : B

Parent 1 : normal body and normal eyes = AABB

Parent 2: ebony body and eyeless = aabb

F1 : AABB X aabb = AaBb ( all have normal body and normal eye )

F1 progeny is self crossed given that the two genes are on different chromosomes which means they show independent assortment:

AaBb X AaBb =

A_B_ = normal body, normal eyes = 9

aaB_ = ebony body, normal eyes = 3

A_bb = normal body, eyeless = 3

aabb = ebony body, eyeless = 1

Hence the ratio is 9 : 3 : 3 : 1

Out of the 400 flies:

(9/16) * 400 = 225 flies have normal body colour and normal eyes

Effect of water pollution

PIT_PIT [208]

Destruction of biodiversity. Water pollution depletes aquatic ecosystems and triggers unbridled proliferation of phytoplankton in lakes — eutrophication —. Contamination of the food chain.Human diseases: Pathogens(viruses,bacteria,fungi,protozoa etc)are biological pollutants of water. They cause typhoid,cholera,dysentery,jaundice,hepatitis.
