Biology
1 answer:
sergey [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The liver plays a major role in blood glucose homeostasis by maintaining a balance between the uptake and storage of glucose via glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. The liver is the primary organ for glucose metabolism. About 90% of all circulating glucose not derived directly from the diet comes from the liver.

The net primary productivity is usually more than 80% of gross primary productivity.
fomenos

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

  • As GPP stands for the gross primary productivity, it's the total amount of energy produced in the process and the NPP is the net primary productivity. NPP is the difference between the GPP and the energy used by the producer for the process of respiration.
  • GPP is a continuous and ongoing process that consumes the energy as compared to the NPP that store energy and not being used. Thus, GPP can affect NPP but NPP does not affect GPP.
  • For example, GPP is completely being dependent on the chlorophyll content of the plant, but NPP is independent of that content of chlorophyll.

Describe the procedure of water reaching the leaves from the roots of a plant
Lisa [10]
The water enters the xylem first by osmosis. Water moves from the soil to the root hair cell down a water potential gradient, and to the root cortex cell from a higher water potential to a lower water potential, this process will be repeated until water enters xylem. Because transpiration is occurring in the leaf, water is lost so there is a lower water potential inside the leaf. Osmosis moves water from the xylem to the leaf because the xylem has a higher water potential. Water moves from the xylem to the cells of the leaf. This pulls water up the xylem via cohesion which is the process of water molecules attracting each other and sticking together. Water does not fall down the xylem as here is adhesion which is the process of water molecules sticking to the inside of the xylem.
