Callous is another way to say it
The key evolutionary development of animals seen for the first time in sponges is that of Multicellularity. A Multicellular organism has a longer lifespan than an unicellular organism and since it has multiple cells, it can perform more functions. Sponges do not have distinct circulatory, respiratory, digestive, and excretory systems – instead the water flow system supports all these functions.
Answer: a. Stomata open at Night
Explanation:
As a tactic to minimize photorespiration in warm regions, many water-storing plants such as cacti and pineapples modified its method of carbon fixation. This process is called Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM), following the plant family Crassulaceae, in which it was first identified. In these plants, the stomata (singular, stoma), specialized openings in the leaves of all plants through which CO2 enters and water vapor is lost, open during the night and close during the day. This model of stomatal opening and closing is the opposite of that in most plants.
Guttation is the process of loss of water from the surface of leaves in the form of liquid drops... Guttation occurs when root pressure is high and transpiration is low.
