Answer:
The xylem is located in the root, stem and the leaves of a plant.
The xylem contains dead cells arranged end-to-end forming continuous vessels. They have a hollow central space (lumen) through which water passes. They walls contain lignin.
The xylem carries water and minerals, up from the roots to the rest of the plant.

Answer:
1. False
2. False
3. True
Explanation:
1. Compliance is the capacity of a container to increase in size to allow it hold more content. Blood vessel, arteries and veins expand (increase in volume) to be able to accommodate a surge in blood flow, which is as a result of an increase in pressure of the blood from the heart pumping of the blood
Therefore, compliance in the tendency for blood vessel volume to increase as the blood pressure <em>increases</em> not decrease
The statement is false
2. A large compliance is indicative of being highly sensitive to changes in pressure
Compliance, C = ΔV/ΔP
From the above equation, a blood vessel with a large compliance, exhibit a large increase in volume when the increase in pressure is small
Therefore, the statement 'Blood vessels with a large compliance exhibit a small increase in volume when pressure increases a small amount; is false
3. The compliance of the vein ranges from 10 to 20 times (30 times in some literature) greater than arteries. A factor which can be affected by the vascular smooth muscle contraction or relaxation
Therefore, the statement, 'venous compliance is approximately 24 times larger than arterial compliance, so as venous pressure increases the volume of veins greatly increases' is true
The organelle described above is called the endoplasmic reticulum.
The rough portion of this called the granulated endoplasmic reticulum and the ribosomes attached to it enable it to produce proteins.
The smooth portion of this organelle does not contain ribosomes and it has a role in the synthesis of lipids.
