Absorbing water from the soil

Xylem is transport tissue found in vascular plants. The function xylem is to transport water from the roots to shoots.  It is also used to replace the water loss during transpiration and photosynthesis. The xylem sap has water and inorganic ions . The transport of water is done true passive process. Transporting water to the top of the tree becomes difficult that is why xylem is also condsidered to limit the height of trees

Differentiate Humoral immunity vs cell mediated immunity
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Cell-mediated immunity develops through a network of interactions that results in defense against microorganisms that survive within phagocytes or other cells. The response is initiated by the recognition of intracellular microorganism antigen by T cells through the histocompatibility complex. In the CD8 response, only the target cell carrying the class I associated antigen can be lysed or induced to apoptosis. In another mechanism of the cellular response, CD4 + Th1 T cells activate, for example, cytokine-infected macrophages such as IFN. When a pathogen resists the effects of activated macrophages, chronic infection may develop.

The hormonal immunity response leads to the destruction of extracellular microorganisms and prevents or decreases the spread of intracellular cells by neutralizing, opsonizing and activating the complement system.

​which organ is found in the left, upper quadrant of the abdomen and secretes digestive enzymes, insulin, and glucagon
irina [24]
This organ is the pancreas. It is a very small endocrine gland measuring 6 inches that is located on the left abdomen near the duodenum of the small intestine and the spleen. The pancreas is a very important organ that secretes digestive enzymes like:

pancreatic amylase - breaks down polysaccarides and glycogen into simple sugars
trypsin- breaks down proteins into amino acids
pancreatic lipase - breaks down triglycerides to fatty acids and monoglycerides
ribonuclease - digests nucleic acids

It also secretes insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar levels.
