Explanation:

Permineralization

occurs when minerals carried by water are deposited

around a hard structure. They may also replace the hard structure itself.

Natural casts

form when flowing water removes all of the original bone or

tissue, leaving just an impression in sediment. Minerals fill in the mold,

recreating the original shape of the organism.

Amber preserved

are organisms that become trapped in tree resin

that hardens into amber after the tree gets buried underground.

Trace fossils

record the activity of an organism. They include nests,

burrows, imprints of leaves, and footprints.

Preserved remains

form when an entire organism becomes encased in

material such as ice or volcanic ash or immersed in bogs.

Histamines cause inflammation and increased blood flow. This brings neutrophils and monocytes to the site. Neutrophils are attracted by inflammation and infection. Like basophils, they, too, contain granules filled with powerful chemicals that are released when they encounter foreign invaders. They can also gobble up these antigens and kill them before they enter the bloodstream.</span>

Answer:

Option B, Apply auxin directly to the lower part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.

Explanation:

Options for the question are

A) Apply auxin directly to the shoot tip on the side to which you want the tip to bend.

B) Apply auxin directly to the lower part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.

C) Inject compounds that block auxin receptors into the part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.

D) Plant the roots in two different pots, and apply auxin to the root bucket that is on the same side as the direction you want the plant to bend.

Solution

Auxin is responsible for stem elongation by inhibiting growth of lateral buds. The movement of auxin is opposite to the direction of elongation of cells. Generally, Auxin moves to the dark side which is opposite to the direction i.e the lighter side in which cell elongate . Due to this growth pattern, the stem tip gets curved towards the light.

Hence, option B is correct

Explain hypotonic, isotonic and hypertonic solutions and explain how cell behaves in the three solutions.

juin [17]

In an isotonic environment, the relative concentrations of solute and water are equal on both sides of the membrane. ... If placed in a hypotonic solution, a red blood cell will bloat up and may explode, while in a hypertonic solution, it will shrivel—making the cytoplasm dense and its contents concentrated—and may die.

If a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell, and the cell will shrink. In an isotonic environment, the relative concentrations of solute and water are equal on both sides of the membrane. ... When a cell is placed in a hypotonic environment, water will enter the cell, and the cell will swell.
