CAM plants function using crassulacean acid metabolism. Like C4 plants, CAM plants provide preparatory step for the Calvin cycle

. CAM plants are found in hot, dry environments; to prevent desiccation, they keep their stomata closed during the day. They take in carbon dioxide at night while stomata are open. To increase the concentration of carbon dioxide available to the enzyme rubisco and minimize the degree of photorespiration, the CAM plants carboxylate ________.

Answer: ORGANIC ACIDS  

Explanation:

CAM PLANTS CARBOXYLATE ORGANICS ACIDS through the addition of  CO2 to PEP Carboxylase(  a phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase enzyme present in the mesophyll cells of the cytoplasm in a green plant) to produce Oxaloacetate (organic compound).

CO2 + PEP  ⇒ C4H4O5 (oxaloacetate)

Oxaloacetate is then converted to a similar molecule, Malate (C4H6O5,  another form of organic compound) that can be transported in to the bundle-sheath cells. Malate enters the plasmodesmata and releases the CO2. The CO2 then fixed by rubisco and made into sugars via the Calvin cycle.

A piece of ebonite and acetate are both rubbed with wool. What will occur when the two pieces (ebonite and acetate) are brought
lesya [120]

Answer: The options are not given, here are the options from another website.

A. They will attract each other

b. They will repel each other

C. Nothing will happen to them

d. They will get heated up

The answer is they will attract each other

Explanation:

This is because the charge from the rubbing of ebonite and acetate to a wool is called triboeletric effect.

When ebonite is rubbed with a wool it will produce negative charge, the electrons around it will be negative but when acetate is rubbed with it, it will produce positive charge. This two will attract each other because unlike charges(negative and positive) attract each other.

Petrification is the combination of 2 types of fossilization, replacement and permineralization, by which element? group of answ
azamat

The element involved in the process of petrification, replacement, and  permineralization is silica, were petrification is the combination of 2 types of fossilization, replacement, and permineralization

Permineralization is a way of fossilization in which minerals ( like silica have deposited the fill the empty  pores of shells  or the  hard animal parts). Petrification is a process where the organic material is converted to stone by replacing the original material and the pores with minerals, and Replacement occurs when the original bones or shells dissolve away and is replaced by a different mineral, which occurs along with permineralization, the whole process is called petrification.
