Give two examples of osmosis taking place in plants and explain the importance of each in the life of the Plant.

Biology

mestny [16]4 years ago
5 0

An example of osmosis can be the intake of water molecules in plants. As the cell sap of the root hair cell has a more concentrated solution than the soil, water particles moves in the cell through osmosis.

First, it helps cells move important materials into and out the cell. Important nutrients and waster dissolved in the water move in and out of the cell through osmosis. Plants absorb water through its roots and move the water through out by osmosis.

When igneous rock is formed,the size of the rock crystals or grains is primarily dependent on
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The three factors that influence the textures of igneous rocks are the speed of cooling, the silicate content, and the water content.

Igneous rocks contain randomly arranged interlocking crystals. The size of the crystals depends on how quickly the molten magma solidified: magma that cools slowly will form an igneous rock with large crystals. lava that cools quickly will form an igneous rock with small crystals. When magma cools, crystals form because the solution is super-saturated with respect to some minerals. If the magma cools quickly, the crystals do not have much time to form, so they are very small. If the magma cools slowly, then the crystals have enough time to grow and become large.

Punnett squares provide an easy way to predict the possible genotypes for an offspring, but it is not practical to perform a Pun
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

There are certain limitations associated with the Punnett Squares. They are not useful in case of complex genetic inheritance such as linkage between two genes. In case of linkages it becomes difficult to estimate the distribution of genotypes and phenotypes. For example in case of  Nail-patella Syndrome and gene associated with blood group two genes lie on the same chromosome in close vicinity and hence there are high chances of inheritance of these traits in the offspring from the parent thereby causing  random distribution of the two traits. This random distribution cannot be captured through punnet square.  

The same problem is associated in case where a single gene is determined by multiple genes with graded effects of each gene.

Which of the following best explains how the light reactions of photosynthesis generate ATP?
frutty [35]

Answer:

B. A proton gradient drives the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate via ATP synthase.

Explanation:

Light reaction of photosynthesis includes the splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and electron transfer from PSII to PSI via an electron transport system. During the transfer of electron through cytochrome of the electron transport system, the proton concentration gradient is generated across thylakoids. The proton concentration gradient is harvested to drive ADP phosphorylation by the catalytic site of ATP synthase accompanied by downhill movement protons through its proton channels.

Paul [167]

False, an environment containing no calcium is not the best for Brian shrimp egg hatching. The following evidence statements can be used to support our answer.

  1. Control shows 9 hatchlings after 72 hours whereas the treatment of 10mg/100ml concentration of calcium shows 17 hatchlings.
  2. Control shows 9 hatchlings after 72 hours whereas the treatment of 20mg/100ml concentration of calcium shows 28 hatchlings.
  3. Control shows 9 hatchlings after 72 hours whereas the treatment of 10mg/100ml concentration of calcium shows 39 hatchlings.
