a glacier made of ice can erode a landscape made of rock because there can be water held within the rock that gets frozen, and because water expands when it is frozen the rock breaks apart and the glacier grinds its' way 'downhill' (down a mountain range, a good example of this is the Appalachian mountain range) and carves out a significant amount of material that is below it, as well as the materials frozen inside of the glacier. so glaciers can freeze the rocks, and then scrape away any material that is softer than rock.
Meter is the SI unit for length. :)
Answer:
<em>The correct option is D) the rate of photosynthesis increases and then levels off.</em>
Explanation:
Photosynthesis can be described as the process by which plants make their own food from carbon dioxide and water by using light energy from the Sun. Oxygen is produced as a by-product of this reaction.
As we increase the intensity of light, the rate of photosynthesis also increases. But after a certain time, the reaction rate will level off as there might be enough food produced or the light energy might have caused the temperature to rise which would have caused the enzymes to get denatured.
Blade
Thin, flattened section of a plant leaf that collects sunlight
Petiole
Thin stalk by which a leaf blade is attached to a stem
Mesophyll
Specialized ground tissue that makes up the bulk of most leaves; performs most of a plant's photosynthesis
Palisade Mesophyll
Layer of tall, column-shaped mesophyll cells just under the upper epidermis of a leaf
Spongy Mesophyll
Loose tissue beneath the palisade layer of a leaf
Stoma
Opening in the underside of a leaf that allows carbon dioxide and oxygen to diffuse into and out of the leaf
Guard Cell
Specialized cell in the epidermis of plants that controls the opening and closing of stomata by responding to changes in water pressure
Transpiration
Loss of water from a plant through its leaves
