Explanation:
there are a couple of environmental factors that affect the rate of transpiration. they include:
I) wind:in a windy environment there is easy movement of moisture hence it does not accumulate on the leaf surface. this helps to increase diffusion gradient between the intercellular spaces in the leaf and in the environment there4 the rate of transpiration is increased. in a calm environment moisture accumulates on the surface of a leaf there4 reducing the diffusion gradient there4 reducing the rate of transpiration
ii) atmospheric pressure :in low lands there is high atmospheric pressure than in the highlands. the more the atmospheric pressure the more the pressure exerted on the cells of the leaves there4 reducing the rate of transpiration.
iii) humidity:the more the humidity in the atmosphere the less the rate of transpiration. this is due to low diffusion gradient due to accumulation of water vapour on the surface of the leaf
iv) temperature:a rise in temp increases the water vapour holding capacity of air in the air spaces within the spongy mesophyll layer. the water vapor pressure in the intercellular spaces increases causing an increase in diffusion gradient between the intercellular spaces and the environment there4 increasing the rate of transpiration. decrease in temp decreases the water vapor holding capacity in the intercellular spaces there4 diffusion gradient is lowered there4 reducing the rate of transpiration.
These structures have the function to move around.
Option: C
Explanation:
Tortoise is one animal who used to hide its body under a protective shell. To move its body parts take sharp bend and move around. It belongs to reptile family. It has four legs. Turtle's leg only appeared when it move on the land surface. It takes much time to move. Whole body remain under the shed of hard shell.
Turtles easily move into the water. They are good swimmer. They faced difficulties in moving on the ground mainly on undulating surface. They move very awkwardly. Their body weight is very heavy that is one of the problem in crawling.
Other functions of the small intestine include absorption of nutrients and water, after they have passed through the stomach, using special structures called villi.
