The answer is convergent evolution. 


<span>A convergent evolution is a phenomenon of independent evolution of similar traits in species that are in different lineages. These traits are called analogues structures. They are similar in form or function but were not present in the last common ancestor of those species. So, t</span><span>he appendages of cockroaches and turtles are analogues structures with the similar function - creeping movements, and they are the result of the convergent evolution.</span>

Please help: Which process in plant physiology could not occur if the opening of the undersides leaves are closed?
lapo4ka [179]

A)Photosynthesis

Explanation:

  • Photosynthesis is the process by which green plant prepare glucose using carbon dioxide and water in presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
  • The openings on the undersurface of the leaves are called stomata.
  • Stomata play a vital role in exchange of gases between tissues and the surrounding.
  • If these openings remain closed then carbon dioxide will not diffuse into the cells and oxygen will not diffuse out of the cell.
  • As a result,  photosynthesis will not take place and the plants will die due to lack of food and nutrients.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A) 100 ml Beaker

B) 250 ml Erlenmeyer Flask

C) 250 ml Graduated Cylinder

The answer is B). 250 ml Erlenmeyer Flask

Explanation:

Several types of glasswares are used in chemical laboratories for performing processes like mixing, heating and stirring of chemicals. In this question, Dr. Malani Mackey who works for a pharmaceutical company is trying to develop a cancer drug by making a mixture of L-histidine, polysorbate 80, and sucrose. This mixture is required to be heated and stirred (shaked) during the mixing. Hence, a glassware adapted for this purpose must be used.

- Erlenmeyer Flask, also known as Conical flask is a laboratory flask named after its conical base/bottom. This glassware is used to mix and even heat chemicals in the laboratory. Due to its cone-shaped body coupled with a long cylindrical neck, the contents in the Erlenmeyer Flask can be shaked or stirred without spilling them. This property gives the ERLENMEYER flask an edge over the BEAKER (has a large open mouth) when used for stirring purposes.

The Graduated cylinder is best suited for making precise measurements of liquid chemicals, hence, it is not an appropriate glassware for heating and stirring.
