Answer:

  • <u>Roots</u>: Protostele formed by xylem, cambium, and phloem. There is no medulla. Pericycle, endodermis, and Caspary band surrounds the protostele.
  • <u>Shoots</u>: Eustele formed by all the vascular bundles that surround the medulla. Each bundle is composed of xylem, cambium, and phloem.

Explanation:

The vascular and fundamental tissues of shoots normally show a more complex organization than those of the roots.

In dicots´ root, transversal cut shows a <u>protostele</u> which is a <em>solid vascular cylinder surrounded by cortex</em>. The <em>xylem is in the center</em> of the protostele, <em>surrounded by phloem</em>. There are xylem lobules that extend between phloem. Two cell layers are surrounding the protostele, called pericycle and endodermis. Next to the endodermis, there is the Caspary Band, composed of <em>suberin and lignin</em>.

In dicots´ shoots, the vascular system forms independent vascular bundles composed of xylem and phloem. In each bundle, <em>xylem is facing to the center of the shoot, and phloem is facing the exterior</em> of the shoot. All the vascular bundles form a circle around the medulla which is always in the center of the shoot. This organization is known as <u>eustele</u>.  The <em>cortex surrounds the vascular system</em>.

1. A forensic pathologist would most likely perform a forensic autospy. Forensic pathologists focus on cause of death by examining a bod or corpse. They perform postmortem examinations. 

2. Insect activity will begin immediately if a body is left in the open. That is why insect activity can help investigations with determining certain things such as time of death, where the person died and the like. 

3. A light meal will digest in about 1-2 hours. Digestion rates can give useful information about when a person had died. Medium meals take about 3-4 hours to digest and heavier meals take about 6 hours. 

4. Indicative acts are actions or behaviors that may or may not have taken place before someone dies. Indicative is suggestive, so it may or may have happened. When you say indicative acts you are referring to what may have happened (or may not) based on certain circumstances, observations or evidence.

What role does oxygen play in a plants life?
aleksandrvk [35]
Plants need oxygen to survive , no oxygen mean the plant will diePlants do need oxygen to survive. They respire (take in oxygen, give off carbon dioxide) the same way that animals do. The difference is that during the day, plants also perform photosynthesis, in which they take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.Plants require oxygen for respiration to carry out their functions of water and nutrient uptake. In soil adequate oxygen is usually available, but plant roots growing in water will quickly exhaust the supply of dissolved oxygen and can be damaged or killed unless additional air is provided. A common method of supplying oxygen is to bubble air through the solution. It is not usually necessary to provide supplementary oxygen in aeroponic or continuous flow systems.Oxygen is vital ingredient in plant survival
