Answer:
(B) open stomata only at night, limiting water loss because of heat and low humidity.
Explanation:
CAM plants are found in the regions characterized by very hot and dry environmental conditions. These plants reduce the water loss through transpiration by exhibiting CAM photosynthesis.
They open the stomata during night time when the air is cooler and rich in moisture. They take in CO2 during night time and fix it into the oxaloacetate which in turn is converted into malate and is stored in the vacuoles.
During day time, stomata remain closed to prevent water loss and the CO2 trapped during night time (released by decarboxylation of malate) enter the Calvin cycle.
Answer:
B. Neurons are cells that conduct electrical impulses.
Explanation:
Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body. White blood cells protect against pathogens and aid in blood clotting after injury. Blood cells cannot contract.
Neurons generate and conduct electrical impulses. So this one is correct.
Epithelial cells line the cavities and surfaces of blood vessels and organs, protect underlying tissue, regulate the exchange of chemicals, and secrete various substances. They do not react to stimuli, however neurons do.
Smooth muscles helps the skeleton move, smooth muscle is found in blood vessels and some organs, and cardiac muscle helps the heart beat and pump blood. They are however, not components of blood.
I think it is catabolism though I am not sure.
Answer:
Stomata opens to intake carbon dioxide in the presence of light there by allowing the process of photosynthesis during the day time.
Explanation:
The gaurd cell of the stomata play an important role in regulating the photosynthesis. During the day time, the stomata is open which allows intake of carbon dioxide from atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is very essential for the process of photosynthesis. Thus, during day time when stomata is open photosynthesis takes place while during night time when stomata is closed photosynthesis do not occur. Also the stomata regulate the loss of water from the leaves thereby ensuring availability of sufficient water molecules at the time of photosynthesis.
