<h2>Xylem;phloem and cork</h2>
Explanation:
Wood is mainly known as secondary xylem found in trees
- Xylem is basically the vascular tissue which is responsible for the conduction of water and nutrients from the roots to shoots and leaves
- Secondary xylem is formed from secondary growth and is associated with lateral growth and grows from the vascular cambium
- Its cell walls are thickened by deposition of lignin which provides mechanical support to plants and consists of tracheids and vessels that are shorter and wider
- In large woody plants secondary xylem get differentiated into heartwood and sapwood
Bark is essentially made of phloem and cork
- Bark sole purpose is to provide protection to trees
- The inner bark is produced by vascular cambium which consists of secondary phloem whose innermost layer transports food from the leaves to rest of the plant
- The outer bark is a dead tissue which is the product of cork cambium
Tubes for Transporting Food-carrying tubes Phloem Water-carrying tubes Xylem Sugar is produced In the leaves. The food-carrying tubes transport this sugar from the leaves to the other parts of the plant. The root hairs found on the roots Take in water and mineral salts from the soil.
c would be the correct answer to this question
Here's a chart. Not sure what your choices are though.
Answer: B) an increase in gene flow between the bird populations.
Explanation:
The formation of tiny island will connect the island and the mainland. The distance between the two habitats will reduce due to the tiny island which can also become another habitat for birds. Thus the gene flow will increase between the birds of two different habitats as the population of two habitats can mate and produce progeny.
