The correct answer is A. Saguaro Cacti, with the scientific name <span>Carnegiea gigantea, </span>which is very significant biotic feature to the Sonoran Dessert's ecosystem. The craziest fact about it is that it can grow up to 40 feet tall! The Sonoran Desert is a North American dessert, also. Some other critical biotic features of this desert include joshua trees, rattle snake, and red-tailed hawk.

Answer:
smooth was dominant over that for wrinkled
Explanation:
In complete dominance, a gene may have two different variants or 'alleles', dominant and recessive. A dominant allele is a gene variant that is able to produce a certain phenotype, even in the presence of other alleles, while a recessive allele is a gene variant that is masked by the dominant allele in heterozygous individuals (i.e., individuals that inherited different alleles from each parent). By crossing smooth and wrinkled pea plants, Mendel observed the offspring (F1) were smooth rather than mixed, indicating one type of seed texture was dominant over the other. Subsequently, Mendel observed that alleles for different traits (e.g., seed texture and seed color) assorted independently during meiosis.
Palisade mesophyll cells are closely packed to absorb the maximum light. They are at right angles to the surface of leaf to reduce the number of cross walls. Large vacuole pushes chloroplasts to the edge of a cell. Chloroplasts at edge enable short diffusion path for carbon dioxide and to absorb maximum light.
