Reinforcement and support
parenchyma, in plants, tissue typically composed of living cells that are thin-walled, unspecialized in structure, and therefore adaptable, with differentiation, to various functions. The cells are found in many places throughout plant bodies and, given that they are alive, are actively involved in photosynthesis, secretion, food storage, and other activities of plant life. Parenchyma is one of the three main types of ground, or fundamental, tissue in plants, together with sclerenchyma (dead support tissues with thick walls) and collenchyma (living support tissues with irregular walls).
We de-starch leaves so as to remove the starch produced in it during photosynthesis stored as food. Removing the starch would help us to infer our observations clearly as there is no change or substance that would effect the experiment we want to carry out. For example , the indicators we use might give blue-black or green colors just because of the presence or absence of starch.
Answer:
Chlorophyll is a green pigment which is present inside the chloroplast. Chlorophyll is responsible for the conversion of sun energy into chemical energy in the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a process in which energy is produced by the combination of carbondioxide and water in the presence of sunlight produces glucose and oxygen. This sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll which is present in the leaves.
She would die because she would not have oxygen
Coastal Ocean!
Explanation: It’s important to remember that although the ocean produces at least 50 percent of the oxygen on Earth, roughly the same amount is consumed by marine life. Like animals on land, marine animals use oxygen to breathe, and both plants and animals use oxygen for cellular respiration. Oxygen is also consumed when dead plants and animals decay in the ocean.
This is particularly problematic when algal blooms die and the decomposition process uses oxygen faster than it can be replenished. This can create areas of extremely low oxygen concentrations, or hypoxia. These areas are often called dead zones, because the oxygen levels are too low to support most marine life.
NOAA’s National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science conducts extensive research and forecasting on algal blooms and hypoxia to lessen the harm done to the ocean ecosystem and human environment.
