Answer:

Option 3. cohesion transpiration is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Plants release water through transpiration while cohesion is responsible for moving more water throughout the xylem. When the water evaporate through the stomata, more water is pulled from roots into stem and eventually reach the leaf this process is called transpiration-cohesion theory.  (More explanation in attached Picture)

What is the most likely reason that a moon is spherically shaped?
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

The size of the moon ensures that it has some considerable gravitational force associated with its mass. This is unlike asteroids that are not large enough to have significant gravitational forces associated with their relatively low mass. Therefore when the moon was molten in its early years of formation,  gravity due to its mass, caused materials to be pulled down towards its center.  The molten rock, before it cooled into solid rock,  got distributed more or less into a sphere because the force of gravity pulls from all sides from the center of mass.

Chickens that have the dominant allele of the frizzle gene (F_) have feathers that curl outward. Chickens that are ff have feath
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Pleiotropy.

Explanation:

Pleiotropy may be defined as when the single gene shows the multiple phenotypic traits. The gene is known as the pleiotropic gene and its mutation may affect the several phenotype expression.

The frizzle gene control the multiple phenotype effects like defective feathers, high blood flow, low egg lay rates and high metabolic rates. This is a case of pleiotropy because here a single gene is responsible for the multiple phenotypes.

Thus, the answer is pleiotropy.

At which of the following temperatures is the speed of a given chemical reaction the fastest?
Rashid [163]
There are many factors that affect the rate of chemical reactions and temperature is one of them.
Typically, the higher the temperature of a chemical reaction the faster the reaction occur, that is, the temperature and the rate of chemical reaction are directly related. This is due to the fact that increasing the temperature of the reaction increases the kinetic energy of the reacting particles and thus they are able to move faster and the reaction also occur faster. Thus, from the options given, the correct answer will be D [40 degree], this is because, it is the highest temperature out of all the options given.
