Most flowering plants can achieve pollination in several different ways. Those that produce pollen and carpels on the same plant

may be self-pollinated, but they may also be pollinated by insects or other pollinators. The cape gooseberry (Physalis peruviana) is able to produce seed whether it is self- or cross-pollinated. Is one type of pollination better than the other? Global bee populations have been declining over the past decade. What impact might this have on the world's human population? Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences.

Answer:

Cross pollination is better than self pollination as it allows genetic diversity to occur. This is because in cross pollination, the pollen and egg form different plants unite to form the zygote which will lead to increase in genetic diversity. Flowers that were pollinated by bees did form fruits with higher mass. There was no significant difference between the number of seeds per fruit.

The decline in the bee population is a major concern for food production on a large scale. Fewer trees means decrease in crop production. This problem will make it more difficult to feed and sustain the increasing number of people world wide.

How do cells maintain water balance through osmosis?
neonofarm [45]
Water then moves from cell to cell through the root cortex by osmosisalong a concentration gradient; this means that each cell is hypertonic to the one before it. In the centre of the root the water enters the xylem vessels. Water may move by diffusionthrough the cell walls and intercellular spaces.

Why is vinegar used in food preservation?
weqwewe [10]
Vinegar is an extremely acidic liquid. Very few microorganisms (ie bacteria and fungus which cause foods to spoil) can survive in such an acidic environment. Among other effects, it can destroy their cell walls, and prevent their own enzymes working (enzymes are extremely pH sensitive). There are a small number of microorgamisms which are adapted to survive in extreme acidity. However, this adaptation prevents them from surviving in more 'normal' environments. Therefore, anything which can survive in the vinegar, will not likely survive on your kitchen surface, and the same is true the other way around. Therefore, as vitually nothing can colonise whatever is in the vinegar, the food will be very effectively preserved. . . . . . . . . . . you can say........................ . . the low pH a nd high acidity of vinegar destroy bacteria

Name on ion that have entered the plant by diffusion. Explain your answer
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Water, carbon dioxide, and oxygen are among the few simple molecules that can cross the cell membrane by diffusion (or a type of diffusion known as osmosis ). Diffusion is one principle method of movement of substances within cells, as well as the method for essential small molecules to cross the cell membrane.

Why is it important to understand levels of organization in living systems in terms of both structure and function of each level
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The living world can be organized into different levels.

Levels of organization are structures in nature, usually defined by part-whole relationships, with things at higher levels being composed of things at the next lower level. Typical levels of organization that one finds in the literature include the atomic, molecular, cellular, tissue, organ, organismal, group, population, community, ecosystem, landscape, and biosphere levels.

Explanation:

Yet, in spite of the ubiquity of the notion, levels of organization have received little explicit attention in biology or its philosophy. Usually they appear in the background as an implicit conceptual framework that is associated with vague intuitions. Attempts at providing general and broadly applicable definitions of levels of organization have not met wide acceptance. In recent years, several authors have put forward localized and minimalistic accounts of levels, and others have raised doubts about the usefulness of the notion as a whole.

Just helps a lot overall, especially if you are planning to go into a field related to biology.  Hope this helps! :)
