Why are most of the stomata on the bottom of the leaf
larisa86 [58]

Answer: Stomata plays very crucial roles in plants. During photosynthesis, gas exchange takes place via the stomata. Water also evaporates from plants through the stomata. In plants, most of the stomata are usually on the bottom of the leaf IN ORDER TO PREVENT EXCESSIVE LOSS OF WATER.

During the day, the sunlight falls on the leaf directly and draws water from the plants. Locating the stomata at the underside of the leave reduces the amount of water that can be lost through excessive evaporation. Also, locating the stomata on the underside of leaves prevent  the leaves from taking in too much water during rainfall.

What are the body’s three defenses? How do they differ from each other.
Artemon [7]

Answer:

- Physical and chemical barriers

- non-specific innate responses

- specific adaptive responses

<u>The differences are...</u>

The first barrier is the physical and chemical barrier. It is the first line of defense when in contact with outside sources, this can be through the skin, earwax, nose-hair, etc.

The second barrier, the non-specific innate response, is after these outside sources have somehow managed to pass through the first barrier. They come into contact with cells and enzymes that help to defeat them.

The third barrier, the specific adaptive response, is the body's way of dealing with pathogens that the body has encountered before. (B cells activate)

Explanation:

A DNA molecule has <em>two strands of nucleotides with a sugar phosphate backbone each, but orientated on the opposite direction </em>allowing for the base pairs to complement one another, making it a more stable structure. <em>When two biopolymers run parallel to each other but with opposite directionality (alignment) we have an antiparallel arrangement.</em>

I annexed an image of the DNA structure.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Can someone help me on this question please? For brainliest
Serggg [28]

Streams and small rivers flow together to create river systems. As the weather gets warmer, the snow and ice from the winter melts, which makes the water flow down the stream and into the larger river system. ... This can result in flooding due to more water draining in than being lost to evaporation.
