What could happen to the reproductive process of mosses during a drought? The flagellated sperm would not be able to swim to the

eggs for fertilization. The flagellated sperm and eggs would go dormant until water was available. Mitosis in the sporophyte would cease and the reproductive cycle would stop. Meiosis in the sporophyte would cease and the reproductive cycle would stop.

The answer is <span>The flagellated sperm would not be able to swim to the eggs for fertilization.

</span><span>Their life cycle of mosses has alternation of generation - a haploid gametophyte and a diploid sporophyte. Gametophyte produces haploid gametes which fuse to form a diploid zygote. The zygote grows into diploid sporophyte which produces haploid spores. The spores grow into gametophyte and the cycle begins again.
</span>Mosses require water for reproduction. Before fertilization, the sperm swims to an egg through the water. Therefore, mosses require water for successful fertilization. In drought periods, without water, the sperm cell could not swim to the egg cell.

The primary function of the active site of an enzyme is to catalyze the reaction associated with the enzyme (Option c). It is a fundamental structure in the enzyme.

<h3>What is the active site of an enzyme?</h3>

The active site of the enzyme is It is a fundamental structure in the enzyme that has catalytic activity.

The active site of the enzyme is a site that binds to the substrate to form the enzyme-substrate complex.

The formation of this complex leads to the generation of one or more products of a given chemical reaction.

k0ka [10]

Answer:

WATER REABSORPTION IN THE COLLECTING TUBULE OF TE KIDNEY

Explanation:

Antidiuretic hormone synthesized by the neurons in the hypothalamus and the posterior pituitary allows for the reabsorption of water from the collecting ducts of the kidneys back into the circulation.

This therefore reduces the amount of water in the urine causing the formation of concentrated urine and reduced volume of urine.

It causes the increased reabsorption of sodium in the ascending loop of Henle adding to the counter-current mechanism which aids the further reabsorption of water from the distal tubules and collecting ducts.

It also allows the constriction of arteries thereby reducing arterial blood pressure.
