Explanation:
The main function of a leaf is to produce food for the plant by photosynthesis. Chlorophyll, the substance that gives plants their characteristic green colour, absorbs light energy.
I will be describing what each of these do to the plant.
- <u>Photosynthesis: </u>Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
- <u>Transpiration</u>: Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Water is necessary for plants but only a small amount of water taken up by the roots is used for growth and metabolism. The remaining 97–99.5% is lost by transpiration and guttation.
- <u>Guttation</u>: Guttation is the exudation of drops of xylem sap on the tips or edges of leaves of some vascular plants, such as grasses, and a number of fungi. Guttation is not to be confused with dew, which condenses from the atmosphere onto the plant surface. Guttation generally happens during the night time.
- <u>Storage</u>: A storage organ is a part of a plant specifically modified for storage of energy (generally in the form of carbohydrates) or water. Storage organs often grow underground, where they are better protected from attack by herbivores.
- <u>Defense</u>: The first line of defense in plants is an intact and impenetrable barrier composed of bark and a waxy cuticle. Both protect plants against herbivores. Other adaptations against herbivores include hard shells, thorns (modified branches), and spines (modified leaves).

Answer:The boiling point of the solution is 108° C.
Explanation:
Boiling point of pure water=T=
Boiling point of water after addition of 500 g of ethylene glycol=
Mass of water = 500g = 0.5 kg (1000 g = 1 kg)






The boiling point of the solution is 108° C.
Nectar contains a high concentration of sucrose (sugar).
When hummingbirds ingest the nectar, their cells use oxygen to convert it into carbon dioxide and water.
The oxidation of sucrose releases a large amount of energy, which the birds can use for flapping their wings, etc.
137 g NO) / (30.0061 g NO/mol)x (43kcal / 2 mil NO) = 98kcal
People can reduce their exposure to BPA by washing out plastic cups, buying BPA free plastics. BPA should be kept out because it can cause a chemical interference in the human body
