Whiteflies are common pest insects found on cotton, tomato, poinsettia, and many other plants. Nymphs are translucent and mostly

sessile, feeding on their host plant's phloem (sap) from the undersides of leaves. They undergo incomplete metamorphosis into winged adults. Because whitefly nymphs cannot escape predation by moving, you hypothesize that their translucent bodies make them hard to spot by predators. How could you directly test this hypothesis?

Answer: Comparing the rates of predation on whitefly nymphs coated with a nontoxic dye versus the undyed whitefly nymphs.

Explanation:

A hypothesis refers to an assumption, which is proposed for the sake of an argument which is tested to ascertain if it's true.

The hypothesis can be tested by comparing the rates of predation on whitefly nymphs coated with a nontoxic dye versus the undyed whitefly nymphs.

Plants don’t move freely. How do the plant structures shown in the three images help to ensure successful reproduction? Explain
RSB [31]

The bee who is enthralled by the pollen gets some of it stuck to itself and travels with the plants offspring which ensures the plants reproduction. The wind blows the seeds of the dandelion to far off places to ensure the reproduction of the dandelion. The squirrel who is storing acorns for the winter will eat some of them, but other acorns are forgotten which ensures the reproduction of the acorn tree's reproduction.

All living organisms break down sugar to obtain energy using cellular respiration, Which of the following chemical reactions rep
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The chemical reaction that represents the process of aerobic cell respiration is oxygen + glucose → water + carbon dioxide + energy

Explanation:

Cell respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and consists of a series of chemical reactions in which energy in the form of ATP molecules is obtained from a glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen.

<u>Glucose is the main energetic substrate</u> to be able to synthesize energy in the form of ATP, through oxidative phosphorylation. At the end of the process ATP is obtained as products, and as waste compounds water and carbon dioxide, which can be schematized in the following chemical reaction:

              <em>              C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂ →  6H₂O  +  6CO₂ + ATP ↑</em>

<em>                Glucose + Oxygen → Water + Carbon dioxide + Energy ↑</em>

This reaction summarizes what happens in aerobic cellular breathing, which is necessary to synthesize energy for cellular functions.

The other reactions:

  • <em>oxygen + water </em><em>→</em><em> glucose + lactose </em>
  • <em>glucose + lactose </em><em>→</em><em> oxygen + water </em>
  • <em>water + carbon dioxide + energy </em><em>→</em><em> oxygen + glucose</em>

<em>do not represent the components or the order of the reactions that occur in aerobic cell respiration</em>
