Zarrin [17]4 years ago
6 0

It is a basin

Explanation:

The Midwestern region is made up of sedimentary rocks because it is a basin. In a basin, sediments accumulates and they form sedimentary rocks there.

  • Sedimentary rocks are rocks that are laid down in natural depression on the earth surface.
  • These depressions serves as the collection point of sediments from different sources.
  • When wind, water glaciers brings materials here, they settle and accumulate.
  • Compaction, cementation and lithification of sediments occur here and sediments are transformed into sedimentary rocks.

Therefore, the Midwestern region must have been a basin for sedimentary rocks to have formed there.

AveGali [126]

The correct answer is option C, that is, regulate water loss.  

Guard cells refer to the cells enclosing each stomata. They assist in monitoring the rate of transpiration by closing and opening the stomata. The guard cells possess the tendency to monitor the closing and opening of stomata by changing shape. The shape of the guard cells modifies on the basis of the concentration of potassium ions and water found in the cells themselves.  

The stomatal pores get closed when carbon dioxide is no longer needed for the process of photosynthesis. The guard cells swell when movement of water takes place inside these pores, and thus, the opening of stomatal pores occurs, and as water moves out, the guard cell closes. Thus, guard cells play an essential role in regulating water loss.
