The correct answer is C4 plants.

A plant that cycles carbon dioxide into four-carbon sugar components to get into the Calvin cycle is known as a C4 plant. These plants are very effective in dry, hot climates and produce ample energy. Various foods one consumes are C4 plants like pineapple, corn, and sugar cane.

In the C4 plants, at the start carbon fixation occurs in the mesophyll cells and the Calvin cycle occurs in the bundle-sheath cells. The PEP carboxylase combines with an incoming molecule of carbon dioxide to the three carbon-molecule PEP, generating a four carbon molecule, that is, oxaloacetate.

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

The main adaptation of desert plants is to minimize water loss through their pores and also through the cell walls on their leaves. So the leaves of many desert plants have a thick covering that is coated with a waxy substance that allows them to seal in and protect what moisture they already have.

The warmer the star, the bluer it will appear. The cooler a star, the more red it will appear.

Proxima Centauri Red Dwarf Stars for example have significantly less heat, therefore their red color.

When the lymphatic vessels are damaged they will not be able to remove all the excess interstitial fluid from tissues. So edema is seen in the arm of that person because there is excess fluid in the interstitium.

Ways to reduce edema would be movement and elevation of that area(your arm) compressing and messaging it. These all help with the fluid entering the lymphatic vessels and leaving the interstitium. Another important factor is reducing ur salt intake so the edema doesn’t progress.
