Answer:
The theory of punctuated equilibrium states that evolutionary change is characterised by short periods of rapid evolution followed by longer periods of stasis in which no change occurs. ... To meet this challenge, evolutionary biologists attempt to describe how and why evolutionary changes accumulate over time
Explanation:
Answer:
The water is transported to the top most leaves (and rest of its parts) of a tall tree by three actions:
1) root pressure (osmosis)
2) capillary action (adhesion)
3) evapotranspiration (cohesion)
Explanation:
The trees contain a series of interconnected tissues (xylem and phloem) that act as network for transport of water and nutrients throughout the tree. The root pressure and capillary action push the water, while the transpiration from the leaves pull the water. The root pressure is generated by osmotic movement of water from soil to the root tissues. The capillary action is caused due to adhesion of water molecules. However, root pressure and capillarity is thought to support only few meters of water column. The rest of the water transport (esp. in tall trees) is attributed to negative pressure generated by evaporation of water from leaves. This negative pressure creates a vacuum and pulls the water from the roots.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
The correct answer will be-False
Explanation:
Calcitonin is a hormone produced by the parafollicular cells present in the thyroid gland.
The Calcitonin plays an important role in the human body as they reduce the level of phosphate and calcium in the blood.
The calcitonin is produced by the C-cells in response to the amount of the calcium levels in the blood as a high concentration of calcium cause release of calcitonin.
Since the calcitonin is involved in the regulation of calcium of blood and not bones therefore, false is the correct answer.
B.
because the radioactive decay continues until a stable isotope is formed.
