Biology
1 answer:
kupik [55]3 years ago
7 0

Answer with Explanation:

New York City is located in the <em>eastern part of the USA.</em> Places in this area have a<em> "temperate deciduous forest</em>" as its biome. This kind of biome constantly changes and thus, it experiences four types of seasons (winter, spring, summer and fall). Precipitation in this biome occurs all throughout the year thus, this supplies the amount of water needed for plants and animals to grow. This also makes the soil fertile which allows the growth of <em>"hardwood trees."</em> In this sense, it becomes easier to build houses, facilities and other buildings, thereby increasing the population in this area.

On the contrary, Seattle is located on the<em> western area of the USA. </em>Places in this area have a <em>"temperate coniferous forest"</em> as its biome. This kind of biome has a moist temperate, thus resulting to evergreen forests even during winter. It has one of the longest dry summers in the world that it is said to have even stood out. However, temperate coniferous forests are known for having<u> warm summer and cool winter</u>. This allows the growth of many kinds of plants<em> (Needleleaf </em>and<em> Broadleaf). </em>

Rashid [163]
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

A cell found in the root of the plant would most likely lack what cell structure.
mestny [16]

Answer:

The cells found in the root of the plant normally lacks chloroplasts, as roots do not perform photosynthesis. The main function of chloroplast is photosynthesis.

Explanation:

The plant cell contains nucleus, cell wall, cell membrane, mitochondria, chloroplasts, vacuole, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes etc. Chloroplasts contain green pigments which give green color to the plants. The main function of chloroplast is photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, the plants produce glucose and release oxygen by using carbon dioxide from the air, and absorbing water and nutrients from the soil. Using the glucose in the plants and oxygen, mitochondria produce energy.

The root system of the plants absorb water and nutrients from the soil. The absorbed water and nutrients are then transported to various parts of the plant to carry out processes like photosynthesis, maintaining turgor pressure etc. They have different types of cell which perform some specific functions. These cells also contain cell wall, cell membrane and mitochondria. Mitochondria provides energy for the active transport of water and nutrients. But chloroplasts are absent in root cells as they do not perform photosynthesis.

How do phones produce radiation?​
Rudik [331]
Cell phones emit radiofrequency radiation (radio waves), a form of non-ionizing radiation, from their antennas. Parts of the body nearest to the antenna can absorb this energy. ... Over time, the number of cell phone calls per day, the length of each call, and the amount of time people use cell phones have increased.
