The correct answer is Water absorption.

The given figure represents the structure of a root. The root is the structure of the plants, which is embedded in the soil. The main function of the root is to absorb the water and the nutrients from the soil and keep the plant attached to the root. The given figure is a type of tap root, in which a main root and its branches are present. Highly branched root helps in increase in the area of the water and nutrient absorption.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. The function of the structure pictured above is water absorption. This is because the figure looks like a root in water. So, water should be absorbed by the root for the plant to use.

A pharmacist has two vitamin-supplement powders. The first powder is 10% vitamin B1 and 30% vitamin B2. The second is 15% vitami

Basile [38]

Answer:

$560$ mg of powder 1 and $160$ mg of powder 2

Explanation:

Let "X" denotes weight of powder 1 added to the new mixture and "Y" denotes weight of powder 2 added to the new mixture

Total weight of vitamin B1 in the mixture is equal to $80$ mg

Total weight of vitamin B2 in the mixture is equal to $200$ mg

Equation 1

$0.1 X + 0.15 Y= 80$

Equation 2

$0.3 X + 0.2 Y= 200$

Let us simplify the above two equations, we will get

$10 X + 15 Y = 8000\\3X + 2Y = 2000$

$2 (10 X + 15 Y = 8000), 20X + 30 Y = 1600015(3X + 2Y = 2000), 45X +30Y = 30000\\25 X = 14000\\X = 560$

Substituting value of X in equation 2 we get

$0.3 * 560 + 0.2 Y = 200\\0.2 Y = 200 - 168\\Y = 160$
