Answer:

Explanation:

Phloem cells are conducting vessels that are found in vascular plant. They are used in the transport of photosynthate produce during photosynthesis from the source of production to other parts of the body.

It consist of sieve elements, which are the conducting vessel that aids transport of sugar round the body. They are very active before maturity at mature they are no longer in use.

Companion cells are used in replacement of sieve element at maturity, they function in metabolism together with the sieve tube Translocation is the transport or movement of sugar round the body.

Girdlings is the removal of the bark of a plant this can inhibit active transport of food.

Non-reducing sugar are monosacharrides such as glucose that are produce and transported round the body of the plant.

P-protein are found in the plants sap usually in large amount in the sieve elements.

Epinephrine has to cross the cell membrane to bind to its receptor in the cytoplasm. True or False
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The statement is false.

Explanation:

Epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) is a hormone and a neurotransmitter produced by the adrenal glands, it helps to regulate cellular energy metabolism and increases the heart rate.

Epinephrine adheres to certain receptors that are exposed on the surface of a large number of body cells. This receptor, called beta-adrenergic, is a receptor that is embedded in the plasma membranes of these cells. Adrenaline does not penetrate the cell, instead, joining for a short period of time to its receptor, induces it to release biochemical signals to the cytoplasm of cells. This steric change, affects the configuration of the cytoplasmic domain of the protein, this is the "link" of the receptor that protrudes in the cytoplasm.

The diagram represents a model of DNA replication.
mr_godi [17]

Although there is no attachment, the best answer would be option B.

DNA replication occurs in opposite directions along a strand of DNA.

The leading strand is replicated continuously in the 5' to 3' direction towards the replication fork.

The lagging strand is replicated discontinuously in the 5' to 3' with segments of DNA known as Okazaki fragments.

How can I set up a wildflower classification key?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

There are 3 methods to set up a wildflower classification means discovering a new flower. Those methods are discussed below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Method one (Identification tools using):

  1. Search the about of the flower in the flower dictionary or flower database.
  2. Use any app which can identify flower such as Flowerchecker, Naturegate, etc.
  3. Take photos of the plant and post it on Flicker to get more information.
  4. Try google photos for searching about the plant by its picture.

Method two( Measuring the physical character of the plant):

  1. Measure the overall height of the plant.
  2. Measuring the width of the plant.
  3. Look at the flower to check how the flower is arranged on the stem.
  4. Count the petal number of the flower.
  5. Identify the color of the petals.
  6. Check the shape and texture of the stem.
  7. Check the shape, size, and arrangement of the leaves in the plant.
  8. Use this collected information to identify the flower in a plant database or encyclopedia.

Method three (Identifying the Flower’s Location and Blooming Time):

  1. Use the climate and terrain to determine the type of the flower.
  2. Observation of the factors in the geographic location to identify the flower.
  3. Find out the time of year when the flower bloomed.
  4. Identify the flower in an online database or encyclopedia using the collected information.

By doing this, you can set up a wildflower classification key and can find out the kingdom, family etc of the flower.
