The best explanation for the process of transpiration in plants is option A. It is the evaporation of water from leaf stomata, which helps in xylem transport. This evaporation of water in the leaves is released to the atmosphere as a vapor. A process called guttation occurs during transpiration wherein the water loss is in a form of liquid from the stem or leaf of the plant.
Most chemical digestion and absorption of nutrients takes place in the _small intestine_.
All macronutrient (protein, carbohydrate, fat) breakdown into their basic subunits (monomers) is finalized in the small intestine. This is where all foodstuffs will meet the last set of enzymes and emolients/emulsifiers (dissolvers) to do the final breaking of bonds (chemical digestion). And it is therefore also in the small intestine that a vast blood supply allows a special circulatory route to absorb (pick up) these nutrients (sugars, amino acids, small fatty acids) via their tiny capillaries, and transport them to the liver for processing. This circuit is known as the Portal Venous System.
<h2>Capillary Smooth Muscle Contraction</h2>
Explanation:
- Blood flows through blood vessels, which form the closed system called the circulatory system. Like a system of roads, the circulatory system has its highways, back roads, and alleyways, which we call arteries, veins, and capillaries
- Capillaries are the alleyways that extend and branch into every tissue of your body, ensuring that every cell has a blood supply. It is here, in the capillary beds, that your cells pick up oxygen and nutrients and drop off carbon dioxide and wastes
- Muscles are composed of two major protein filaments: a thick filament composed of the protein myosin and a thin filament composed of the protein actin. Muscle contraction occurs when these filaments slide over one another in a series of repetitive events
- All muscles contract as a result of interaction between special proteins within the myocytes. Skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle cells synthesize the contractile proteins actin and myosin, which are needed for muscular contraction
Answer:the messenger rna
Explanation:
A change in the DNA sequence of a gene leads to a change in the nucleotide sequence in the messenger RNA, which can lead to a change in the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein.
