Biology
1 answer:
krok68 [10]3 years ago
4 0
water filtration systems work by capturing undesirable elements in the water and allowing only clean water through. Water filtration systems for residential use that use actual filters, such as the thin film composite in reverse osmosis, do this by using microscopic pores that block even small bacteria while letting water through. Others work through other materials such as activated carbon or sand, which essentially scrubs the water clean.

Answer:

They will collapse and shut off the stomatal pore

Explanation:

The guard cells are regulated by the presence of water. When water is present, they become turgid and open up the stomatal pore and when water is inadequate, they become flaccid, collapse and close up the stomatal pore as a result.

<em>If the leaf is left under the microscope for too long, there will be loss of water by evapotranspiration and the guard cell will become flaccid and collapse as a result and the stomatal pore will become closed.</em>

True or false conductive hearing loss results from damage to the inner ear or the vestibularcochlear nerve
pickupchik [31]
Conductive hearing loss occurs from either (1) blockage from the external ear or (2) damage to any components of the middle ear; hence the answer here is false. Hearing loss that results from damage to the inner ear or the vestibulocochlear nerve is called <em>sensorineural hearing loss</em>. 

<em>The most common cause of sensorineural hearing loss is noise-induced hearing loss due to prolonged exposure to high decibel environments (i.e. machine workers). </em>
