Do stomata close when there is a lack of water in soil or a lack of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
Arte-miy333 [17]

<em>When water is abundant:</em>

-Temporal regulation of stomata is used:

Open during the day

Closed at night

- At night, there is no photosynthesis, so no demand for CO2 inside the leaf.

- Sunny day = demand for CO2 in leaf is high = stomata wide open.

- As there is plenty of water, plant trades water loss for photosynthesis products.

-  If the leaf's CO2 concentration is low, the stomata will stay open to continue fueling photosynthesis.

- High temperatures will also signal stomata to close.

- When limited water is available in the soil, plants try to prevent water loss.

What factor does not contribute to "water stress" on the Earth?
kotegsom [21]

Precipitation differences are the factor that does not contribute to "water stress" on the Earth.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Less ocean water sources, population differences, Scarcity of economic water resources are the factor which leads to water stress on the Earth.
  • Precipitation differences do not cause much difference in water stress. So it will not contribute to the water stress.
  • An increase in population will cause major water stress because availability drinking water is less in the earth. Population increase can cause a major problem.

Give 2 ways that exposing non-pathogenic bacteria to antibiotics as a side effect of antibiotic treatment for a pathogen may inc
Airida [17]

Answer:

The resistance of the bacteria to antibiotics is increasing and the disease which were easily treatable using the antibiotics, are now incurable and bacteria becomes resistant.  

The overdose and misuse of antibiotics Is a big concern of worry. Every time we use antibiotics, it will kill the bacteria which were sensitive but resistant bacteria will survive and starts growing and this process will increase the growth of the resistant bacteria upon the nest use of the antibiotics.  

Also due to unawareness, the use of antibacterial tablets against viral infections also cause increase in resistance of bacteria against antibiotics.

bearhunter [10]

Answer;

B) Neurons, epithelial cells

Explanation;

-Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a rare neuromuscular disease with slowly progressive weakness in voluntary muscle movement. PLS belongs to a group of disorders known as motor neuron diseases. PLS affects the upper motor neurons (also called corticospinal neurons) in the arms, legs, and face.

-It occurs when nerve cells in the motor regions of the cerebral cortex (the thin layer of cells covering the brain which is responsible for most higher level mental functions) gradually degenerate, causing movements to be slow and effortful.  The disorder often affects the legs first, followed by the body, trunk, arms and hands, and, finally the bulbar muscles (muscles that control speech, swallowing, and chewing).
