Explain how drooping of leaves on a hot sunny day is advantageous to a plant

Biology

Answer:

During hot summer day with high temperature, high light intensity and low humidity result in the increase in the transpiration of water from leaves.

The wilting of leaves helps the plant to reduce transpiration but the prolonged wilting leads to the death of the leaves and the wind causes the drooping of the leaves. This is advantageous to plant as it helps reduce the surface area for the plant to release water to the atmosphere and plants can conserve more amount of water.

Thus, drooping is helpful to plants.

Plants will usually droop their leaves and wilt on a hot day due the amount of water they're not receiving. This can be advantageous to a plant because this releases moisture in the air called <span>transpiration.

Hope that helps. -UF aka Nadia</span>

vitfil [10]

Answer:The lengthy small intestine receives secretions from the ______pancrease______ and ______liver______, completes digestion of the nutrients in _________chyme_______, absorbs the products of digestion, and transports the remaining residues to the ________large________ intestine.

Explanation: digestion of food is necessary for absorption of nutrients. In this process food is broken down into forms that can be absorbed by the body . food is broken down by the teeth and the enzymes in saliva,when it is in the mouth. From there it moves to the stomach through the oesophagus. In the stomach, the content is further mixed with enzymes and the churning breaks down food further.From the stomach food moves to the small intestine. In the small intestine, digestive enzymes from the pancreas and liver acts on food. The small intestine is where digested food is absorbed.it has a large surface area and finger-like projection called villi to carry out the function of absorbing nutrients.

From there, undigested food us passed to the large intestine from where it is passed out through the anus

Which statement is an example of parasitism? A. Psuedoscorpions hide under beetles’ wings for protection and transport. B. Wasps
sladkih [1.3K]

Wasps laying eggs inside hornworms and after the eggs hatch, the wasp larvae feed on the hornworm is the example of parasitism.

Explanation:

There are five types of relationships in an ecosystem. One of the relationships is parasitism. When we define ecosystem, we talk about the kind of interaction that there is between two or more different species.

Parasitism is the type of interaction between two species, in which one species, most likely a parasite, latches itself onto the other species. That other species then becomes a host to the parasite. After latching itself, it becomes dependent on it's host for resources like food and shelter. But, in this type of relationship, the host species is harmed for resources while the parasite species gains strength over time.
