Answer:

Both Cohesion and adhesion play an important role in the upward movement of water through a plant.

Explanation:

Water is absorbed by the roots and transported by xylem tissue to various parts of a plant body such as stem ,leaf .

                  During the transportation of water molecules through the xylem tissue formation of hydrogen bond occur between the water molecules. A single hydrogen bond is weak but collectively they exert a very strong interaction.As a result a water column is established in the xylem tissue. This is called cohesion.

                    Adhesion deals with the interaction of water column with the wall of the xylem tissue.

What do the testes and ovaries produce to develop male and female characteristics?
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Testes and ovaries produce  two types of hormones:

androgens (male sex hormones)

estrogens (female full hormones)

In each type of gland, both types of hormones are secreted only in different amounts: the ovaries secrete more estrogen than the androgen hormones, and the sperm inversely.

Explanation:

In testicular tissue, Leydig cells produce androgen hormones: androsterone and testosterone. The ovaries produce a group of estrogen hormones and progesterone. These hormones exert their effect at puberty when the glands are activated. At puberty, the pituitary gonadostimulins activate the sex glands, whose activity leads to the development of secondary sex characteristics (the appearance of first menstruation in girls, beards and mustaches in boys, etc.).

The amygdala is found in each _________ lobe and is involved with the limbic system.
Tatiana [17]

The amygdala is found in each temporal lobe and is involved with the limbic system. The amygdala is found in the medial temporal lobe, immediately prior to the hippocampus. The temporal lobes are the second biggest lobes, located behind the ears. They are most typically related with the processing of auditory information and memory encoding.

The temporal lobes' primary roles include language comprehension, memory acquisition, face recognition, object recognition, perception, and auditory information processing amygdala. The temporal lobe is in charge of understanding and assigning meaning to different sounds. As a result, injury to the left temporal lobe often leads to issues understanding language.
