Explain why leaves often contain starch.

Biology
1 answer:
Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
8 0
Answer: In the leaf, excess glucose is rapidly converted to starch, so we test leaves for starch to show that photosynthesis has happened, rather than testing for glucose. We often indicate that light and chlorophyll are required for the process by adding them to the equation near the arrow.

Recall what you know about nervous tissue to answer the following questions. Nervous tissue can generate and conduct ____ signal
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Nervous tissue can generate and conduct <u>electrical</u> signals that control the body.

Explanation:

The neuron is the specialized cell that provides function to nerve tissue. Given the structure of the neuron, this cell is capable of creating and conducting information in the form of electrical impulses or signals, by depolarizing its cell membrane and generating action potentials.

The information generated and transmitted by the neurons allows the nervous system to obtain internal and external information of the organism, as well as to control all the body functions.

<em>     The other options are not true because nerve tissue does not generate or conduct </em><em>thermal </em><em>or</em><em> chemical </em><em>signals to perform its function.</em>

What type of molecule can easily diffuse through the plasma membrane without any help? Why?
babunello [35]
Water diffusion is called osmosis. Oxygen is a small molecule and it's nonpolar, so it easily passes through a cell membrane. Carbon dioxide, the byproduct of cell respiration, is small enough to readily diffuse out of a cell. Small uncharged lipid molecules can pass through the lipid innards of the membrane.
