Answer:
CLOSED.
Explanation:
Stomata are found in epidermal layers in green aerial parts of plants, especially leaves. They occur mainly on the lower surface of dicotyledonous leaves, although on monocotyledonous, they are found on both surfaces. Intercellular air spaces found throughout the leaf are linked to stomata.
Stomata permits plant uptake of carbon dioxide, which is a necessity for photosynthetic processes. They also help to reduce water loss by closing when conditions are hot or dry. Stomata look like tiny mouths which open and close as they assist in transpiration.
Therefore, it can be said that Stomata adjust temperature, staying closed when temperatures are hot and dry.
This is called the myelin sheath.
Hypothesis or prediction or theory
Answer:
The correct answer is e. secondary and tertiary consumers
Explanation:
In the given food chain pepper plants are the producer which are consumed by snails and grasshoppers so grasshoppers and snails are primary consumers. Spiders are secondary consumers as they eat primary consumers like grasshoppers.
Shrew eat animals that are primary and secondary consumers like snail and spiders so when shrew eat primary consumers it becomes secondary consumer and when it eats secondary consume like spiders than shrew becomes a tertiary consumer.
Therefore the shrew occupies the trophic level of secondary and tertiary consumers.
