Hey there,

Based on my understanding of your question, your correct answer to this question would be <span>it limits water loss through transpiration. There would only be so much that the </span><span>stomata would do.

Hope this helps.</span>

<h2>Energy </h2>

Explanation:

Energy flows in only one direction through an ecosystem

  • The Sun supports most of Earth's ecosystems
  • Plants create chemical energy from abiotic factors that include solar energy and chemosynthesizing bacteria create usable chemical energy from unusable chemical energy
  • The food energy created by producers is passed to consumers, scavengers, and decomposers
  • Energy flows through an ecosystem in only one direction, it is passed from organisms at one trophic level or energy level to organisms in the next trophic level
  • Most of the energy at a trophic level – about 90% – is used at that trophic level and organisms need it for growth, locomotion, heating themselves, and reproduction
  • So animals at the second trophic level have only about 10% as much energy available to them as do organisms at the first trophic level
  • Animals at the third level have only 10% as much available to them as those at the second level

True or false: In a gel electrophoresis gel, a DNA fragment containing 100 bp (base pairs) would travel faster (and further) tha
vova2212 [387]

Answer: true

Explanation: In gel electrophoresis, the smaller the size/molecular weight of DNA the faster it moves across the gel and vise versa. This is as a result of the pore size of the gel which is usually prepared 1g of agarose in 100ml of distilled water. So a DNA fragment with 1000 base pairs will "struggle" its movement across the gel pore making it mive less faster and further. Movement and molecular weight of DNA are inversely proportional.
