The net force on the ball = Force+ frictional force
=22.8-2.3 = 20.5N
The correct answer is option (A) trichomes.
Trichomes are the fine extensions from the epidermal surfaces covering the plant body. They are the result of epidermal cell division. They can be unicellular, multicellular and even glandular. They are characteristically present on the epidermal surfaces of leaves and roots. They reflect the solar radiation and help in mainitaining the internal temperature and reducing water loss. In roots, they absorb water and minerals and in leaves, they reduce water loss, lower the plant temperature. Plants may use trichomes to detect herbivore attacks as a defense mechanism.
The condition of acidosis can also cause hyperkalemia because the higher H+ concentration diffuses to the intracellular fluid, pushing K+ towards the extracellular fluid.
Hyperkalemia describes a potassium level in the blood which is higher than normal. Potassium is a vital substance to the function of nerve and muscle cells, including those of the heart. Blood potassium is normally 3.6 to 5.2 millimoles per liter.
