¿que organismo o institución en el Perú se encarga de estudiar el clima para realizar los perfiles climáticos?
kap26 [50]

El Ministerio de Medio Ambiente (MINAM) gestiona esto, lo gestiona a través del comité nacional sobre el clima.

El cambio climático en Perú es vulnerable y necesita altas adaptaciones. Hay una gran contribución al calentamiento global por el derretimiento de sus glaciares ubicados en los picos andinos.

La pesca y la agricultura en las regiones costeras de bajo nivel son propensas a la elevación de alta mar que puede destruir las infraestructuras económicas y disponibles presentes.

Esta institución de los gobiernos está haciendo un esfuerzo frenético para reducir esta vulnerabilidad, asegurando una reducción en la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero.

Además, el país está adoptando caminos con bajas emisiones de carbono en un intento por conservar la reserva forestal de carbono, con una mayor reducción de las emisiones de la combustión de combustible y otros sectores industriales.

Answer:

This is being managed by the ministry of environment(MINAM).It manages this through the national committee on climate.

The climate change in Peru is vulnerable and needs high adaptations.There is high contribution to global warming from the melting of its glaciers located on at the   Andean peaks.

Fishery and agriculture at low-levels coastal regions are prone to high sea rise which may destroy the  economic and available infrastructures present.

This institution of the governments is making frantic effort to reduces this vulnerability, by ensuring reduction in the green house gas emission.

Besides the country is embracing low carbon paths in an attempt to conserve the forest carbon reserve,with further reduction in emission from fuel combustion and other industrial sectors.

The passage indicates that compared with other functions of coloration in plants, camouflage in plants has A) provided scientist
stiks02 [169]

Question passage: This PASSAGE is adapted from “Rare Woodland Plant Uses‘Cryptic Coloration’ to Hide from Predators.” ©2009 byAmerican Journal of Botany, Inc.It is well known that some animal species usecamouflage to hide from predators. Individuals thatare able to blend in to their surroundings and avoidbeing eaten are able to survive longer, reproduce, andthus increase their fitness (pass along their genes tothe next generation) compared to those who standout more. This may seem like a good strategy, andfairly common in the animal kingdom, but who everheard of a plant doing the same thing?In plants, the use of coloration or pigmentation asa vital component of acquiring food (e.g.,photosynthesis) or as a means of attractingpollinators (e.g., flowers) has been well studied.However, variation in pigmentation as a means ofescaping predation has received little attention.Matthew Klooster from Harvard University andcolleagues empirically investigated whether the driedbracts (specialized leaves) on a rare woodland plant,Monotropsis odorata, might serve a similar purposeas the stripes on a tiger or the grey coloration of thewings of the peppered moth: namely, to hide.

The PASSAGE indicates that compared with other functions of coloration in plants, camouflage in plants has A) provided scientists with a deeper understanding of potential food sources. B) made use of a wider variety of distinctive shades of colors. C) proved to be a less effective defense against predators. D) been the subject of a smaller number of scientific investigations.

Answer: The correct option is C(proved to be a less effective defense against predators).

Explanation:

Adaptation is a means by which plants or animals modify their forms, structures, functions and behaviour in order to escape being harmed and survive in their environment. The special adaptations of organisms in a habitat enables them to live there successfully and reproduce. There are 3 types of adaptation which include:

--> structural adaptation,

--> adaptive coloration and

--> behavioural adaptations.

From the passage, the plant under study shows ADAPTIVE COLOURATION. Colour and colour pattern plays an important role in adaptations of plants. These occur due to the presence of pigments in cells of plants. Common pigments responsible for coloration in plants are:

--> chlorophyll: this gives green colour to plants that has chloroplasts in their cells.

--> Carotene and xanthophyll: this gives yellow to orange colour to plants that has chromoplasts in their cells.

From the passage, the use of coloration or pigmentation in the plant as a vital component of acquiring food (e.g.,photosynthesis) or as a means of attracting pollinators (e.g., flowers) has been well studied but it's use to escape from predation has received little attention. Therefore camouflage in plants has proved to be a less effective defense against predators.

Which is the role of restriction enzyme.
Murljashka [212]
<span>The role of a restriction enzyme is essentially used to cut a single gene from a larger piece of DNA. It has a very important role to play in experiments investigating cloning, and in the construction of particular DNA molecules.</span>
