Answer:
6
Explanation:
Cause after 6 the graphed line stays the same, which means it stopped growing.
Answer: The sequence of events of avocado seed germination includes:
Water absorption --> enzyme activation --> radicle emerges --> lengthening of the hypocotyl --> growth of epicotyl and plumule development --> shrinking of the cotyledons.
Explanation:
Germination is defined as all the changes that occurs when a seed embryo resumes it's growth and development to become an independent seedling. Seeds usually germinate in two ways:
--> EPIGEAL germination: in this type of germination, the hypocotyl grows rapidly and elongates, carrying the cotyledon above the soil.The AVOCADO seed is a typical example of a dicotyledonous plant.
The sequence of events of avocado seed germination starts by imbibition which is the rapid in take or absorption of water by the seed through osmosis. Hydration of the embryo activates the enzymes in it which converts insoluble stored food materials into soluble forms. The testa splits and the radicle emerges first. It grows downwards as the primary root from which root hairs and branch roots arise( to form a tap root system). Next, the hypocotyl lengthens, pushes its way up through the soil carrying with it the cotyledons and the plumule. The cotyledons turn green on exposure to sunlight and start to photosynthesize. The epicotyl then grows and the plumule develops into a green shoot. By the time the first foliage leaves grow and begin to photosynthesize, the cotyledons shrink and drop off.
Answer:
A hummingbird feeding: Mutualism
Explain Interaction: The hummingbird drinks the nectar from the flower and the hummingbird may help pollinate the flower.
I'm a bit confused by the plants on the floor one.
Plants on a Forest Floor: Competition
Explain Interaction: The plants on the forests floor compete with each other for the same resources. Both may not receive enough of those resources. Note: When I was around Middle School and High-school I was only taught mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism, so let me know if competition is not a choice your teacher gives you to choose from or wasn't taught to you
Flea bites human: Parasitism
Explain Interaction: The flea drinks the persons blood as food and the person is hurt. Flea bites can be itchy and become painful. Fleas may also also carry disease.
Clownfish in Anemone: Mutualism (although I hear some people say commensalism)
Explain Interaction: The anemone provides protection and a place to live for the clownfish. The anemone may eat bits of food left over from the clownfish.
