Assume a sperm has penetrated a polar body and their nuclei fuse. Why would it be unlikely for the resulting cell to develop int
BartSMP [9]
Polar bodies are considered byproducts of oogenesis. They are lacking cytoplasm and are much smaller than a regular egg cell. Typically they disintegrate after meiosis. It is unlikely for the resulting zygote to become a healthy embryo because the polar body was never meant to get fertilized. Therefore it is most likely lacking nutrients, and does not have the necessary resources for a healthy baby to develop.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

Root hair cell cytoplasm  // Soil water

Explanation:

Water moves through the xylem vessels in a continuous transpiration stream:

root → stem → leaf

Transpiration produces a tension or ‘pull’ on the water in the xylem vessels by the leaves. Water molecules are cohesive so water is pulled up through the plant.

The transpiration stream has several functions. These include:

transporting mineral ions

providing water to keep cells turgid in order to support the plant

providing water to leaf cells for photosynthesis

keeping the leaves cool by evaporation

Root hair cells

The root hairs are where most water absorption happens. They are long and thin so they can penetrate between soil particles, and they have a large surface area for absorption of water.

Water passes from the soil water to the root hair cell’s cytoplasm by osmosis. This happens because the soil water has a higher water potential than the root hair cell cytoplasm:

Solution Water potential Concentration of dissolved solutes

Soil water High Low

Root hair cell cytoplasm Low High

Osmosis causes water to pass into the root hair cells, through the root cortex and into the xylem vessels
