Scilla [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Chloroplasts are only found in the parts of the plant that are capable of photosynthesis. The majority of chloroplasts are found in the leaves of the plant because these structures have the greatest surface area for absorption. The outer part of a plant stem may also contain chloroplasts.

Chloroplasts are in the leaf cells because the leaf makes photosynthesis, which takes place in chloroplasts. The roots keep the plant firm in the ground.

1.What taxon (classification levels) are represented by the scientific name of an organism? What are the rules for writing the s
Ksivusya [100]

<u>Answer</u>:

1.a) Species. It is the lowest taxon and represents the scientific name of the organism.

b) The species name is part of the binomial system of nomenclature developed by Linnaeus.

Thus it is composed of two parts each with its own writing rules (ex. gray wolf - <em>Canis lupus</em>):

A. the genus or generic name

- written first

- always underlined or italicized

- the first letter is always capitalized

ex. <em>Canis</em>

B. the specific epithet or species name

- is written second

- always underlined or italicized

- never capitalized

ex. <em>lupus</em>

<em />

2. The results should always be the same. A dichotomous key is an identification tool based on a series of choices between alternative characters (dichotomous = divided into two parts). Thus, there is no room for subjective observation that may lead to another result. If the morphological traits of the organism are correctly identified, the the result should always be the same. Any differences occur due to errors on the scientist's part.
