Describe the procedure of water reaching the leaves from the roots of a plant

Biology
1 answer:
Lisa [10]2 years ago
8 0
The water enters the xylem first by osmosis. Water moves from the soil to the root hair cell down a water potential gradient, and to the root cortex cell from a higher water potential to a lower water potential, this process will be repeated until water enters xylem. Because transpiration is occurring in the leaf, water is lost so there is a lower water potential inside the leaf. Osmosis moves water from the xylem to the leaf because the xylem has a higher water potential. Water moves from the xylem to the cells of the leaf. This pulls water up the xylem via cohesion which is the process of water molecules attracting each other and sticking together. Water does not fall down the xylem as here is adhesion which is the process of water molecules sticking to the inside of the xylem.

Aleks [24]

Prior to 1900, sea levels rose at maximum, 4 cm per year. Since 1900 sea levels have risen 11 cm per year.

<h3>How sea level is measured?</h3>
  • Tide stations and satellite laser altimeters are the main tools used to measure sea level.
  • The height of the sea as measured along the shore in relation to a particular place on land is what tide stations all around the world tell us about what is happening locally.
  • NASA uses satellites to measure sea level all over the world.
  • Height of the ocean's surface, often known as sea level, is measured by the Jason-3 satellite using radio waves and other equipment.
  • It studies how the global sea level is changing over time for the entire Earth every 10 days.
  • The average sea level is 6,371.001 km (3,958.756 mi), and it is 6,356.752 km (3,949.903 mi) at the poles.

A man has extra digits (six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot). His wife and their daughter have the normal number
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option D. 1/2

Explanation:

Extra digits on hands and feet mean an individual has six fingers in each hand and feet, this is known as polydactyly. Polydactyly shows an autosomal dominant type of inheritance pattern.

In this case, the mother is normal so she must be recessive alleles and the first daughter is normal so the father must have a recessive allele which means he is heterozygous.

Cross:

Man = Dd

Woman = dd

Their children :

    D      d

d   Dd    dd  

d  Dd    dd

Probability of polydactyl child = 2/4 or 1/2 or 50%
