What generally happens to the number of leaves as the leaf surface area decreases?
likoan [24]

As the leaf surface area decreases ; Number of leaves increase inmost plants.

As the leaf surface area increases, the rate of transpiration increases as well because leaves with large surface areas have bigger stomata. also the smaller the leave surface area of a plant/tree the denser the leaves the plants/tree will have.

Trees with tiny leaves tend to have a lot of leaves because of the decrease transpiration rate occurring in the leaves of the plants .

Hence we can conclude that what generally happens to the number of leaves as leaf surface area decrease is number of leaves increases in most plants.

Two true-breeding stocks of pea plants are crossed. one parent has red, axial flowers and theother has white, terminal flowers;
xxTIMURxx [149]
This is a typical case of a dihybrid cross. 
From the phenotype of the offspring, we can conclude that the gene for the red color of the flower and the gene for the axial position of the flower are dominant.
Since we know that the ratio of phenotypes in a dihybrid cross of independently inherited alleles is
9(dominant for both traits)
3(dominant for one trait, recessive for the other)
3(dominant for the second trait, recessive for the other)
1(recessive for both traits)
we can expect 3/16 of the f2 generation to be dominamt for one trait and recessive for the other (red, terminal flowers), or to be precise 190 individuals.

<h3>What is the circulatory system?</h3>

The circulatory system is an organs system that works to carry out blood cells to all cells in the body.

The circulatory system is fundamental for transporting oxygen and nutrients to all cells of the body.

A closed circulatory system is a special organ system where the blood cells are not circulating in body cavities.
