Answer:
A flower can either be classified as a monocot or a dicot depending on the number of petals present on the flower.
Explanation:
- Monocot also known as monocotyledon are characterized by the presence of one sees leaf(cotyledon) inside the embryo
The seed leaf is often thin because the endosperm which is required to feed the young plant is not found inside the seed leaf. In monocot flower a the number of petals is 3 or a multiple of 3. Examples of monocot flowers include; Asparagales, Wedges, Bromeliads, Poles.
- Dicots also known as dicotyledons are flowering plants that have two seed leaf. In a dicot flower the number of petals is 4 or 5 or a multiple of 4 or 5. Examples of dicot flowers include; Roses, Magnolas, Sunflower, Geranium.
Vacuoles are storage bubbles found in cells. They are very large in plant cells and are used to store a variety of nutrients a cell might need to survive.
Answer:
The meristem is a type of tissue found in plants. It consists of undifferentiated cells (meristematic cells) capable of cell division. Cells in the meristem can develop into all the other tissues and organs that occur in plants.
In negative control, a gene is switched off when a regulatory protein binds to DNA and shuts down transcription.
Hydrolysis is equals to hydro which means water plus lysis which means splitting. Therefore, hydrolysis means splitting/breaking a chemical bond by the addition of water (H2O). More accurately, it is by the introduction of the elements that make up water which are hydrogen and oxygen. Simple example of hydrolysis reaction is an ester is hydrolyzed into an alcohol and a carboxylic acid. Condensation on the other hand is the opposite of hydrolysis. Condensation occurs when two Hydrogen and one Oxygen are LOST from a compound or compounds during the reaction. Most often this occurs when 2 reactants form one product were bond between them being formed by the concerted loss of water (H2O). Condensation example is an alcohol + a carboxylic acid -> ester + H2O.
