Answer:

A: Apical Meristem Tissue

Explanation:

Meristems (or metistamatic tissues) are groups of actively dividing cells. In plants, these meristems are divided into 3 main groups:

  • Apical meristems refers to the tissues around the apices of roots, new shoots and leaves. They are responsible for shoot and root elongation as well as the appearance of new leaves.
  • Intercalary meristems are tissues found in between branches. They are responsible for rapid growth in most monocots
  • Lateral meristems are those found in the lateral regions of plants. They are responsible for increase in girths in plants, especially the woody ones.

The appearance of tiny leaves at the apex of the sunflower planted by Susan must have been due to cell division activities in the apical shoot regions of the seedlings.

Hence, the correct answer is A

How can Lamarck’s theory be woven in knowing our understanding of genetics
Kitty [74]
Lamarck is best known for his Theory of Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics: If an organism changes during life in order to adapt to its environment, those changes are passed on to its offspring. He said that change is made by what the organisms want or need. For example, Lamarck believed that elephants all used to have short trunks. When there was no food or water that they could reach with their short trunks, they stretched their trunks to reach the water and branches, and their offspring inherited long trunks. Lamarck also said that body parts that are not being used, such as the human appendix and little toes are gradually disappearing. Eventually, people will be born without these parts. Lamarck also believed that evolution happens according to a predetermined plan and that the results have already been decided. Lamarcks theory has been disproven and shows that acquired traits are not passed on to offspring.

Why couldn't women get the disease ALD?
dusya [7]
Since ALD is an x-linked recessive disease, women must have 2 affected x chromosomes in order to get the disease, which is unlikely because the disease is rare. Since men only have one x chromosome, they will have the disease if they inherit an affected x chromosome.

Post parturient ketosis usually appears
yan [13]
The correct option is A.
Post parturient refers to the period after a living organism have given birth to offspring.  Post parturient ketosis is a type of ketosis that occur to a female animal after she has given birth to young ones. Glucose is the major fuel that living organisms used to generate energy, when there is shortage of glucose, the body use fat instead as fuel and this leads to the production and build up of ketone bodies. The build up of ketone bodies increases the level of ketones in the blood and this state of metabolismis called ketosis.
