Features of xerophytes​

Biology
1 answer:
SVETLANKA909090 [29]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Xerophyte survival characteristics:

Thick cuticle.

Stomatal closure.

Reduction in # of stomata.

Stomata hidden in crypts or depressions in leaf surface (less exposure to wind and sun).

Reduction in size of transpiration surface (lower leaf only).

Increased water storage.

Explanation:

Xerophyte adaptations increase water intake, limit water loss, and store water efficiently. Water intake adaptations include deep or widespread roots, and high salt content to increase osmosis. Xerophytes have thick cuticles, lost or finely divided leaves, reduced stomata, and CAM photosynthesis

Following the rules of complementary base pairing, which of these DNA bases could successfully bond with adenine?
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Thymine

Explanation:

Adenine is a Purines together with Guanine .

Purines always pair with Pyrimidines ; which are cyosine and Thymine.

This is a complementary base pairing that hold the two strands of DNA bases together by weak hydrogen bonds for flexibility and easily unwind during replication

Purines are larger in size beaxuae they have 2 ring structures while Pyrimidines aee smaller because of one ring structure.

Therefore two purines (Adenine and Guanine can not pair together;

It must be a Purines -Pyrimidines pairs.

Therefore Adenine must pair with Thymine and cyosine with Guanine

In RNA, Thymine are replaced with URACIL as Pyrimidines.

When you breathe, the pressure inside the lungs is different than the pressure outside the lungs. this is an example of a(n)?
goblinko [34]

The pressure inside your lungs and the pressure outside them fluctuate as you breathe. An illustration of a pressure gradient is this.

<h3>What is an example of pressure gradient?</h3>
  • The pressure gradient is the amount by which the atmospheric pressure drops in a location at a particular time.
  • A pressure gradient is demonstrated by gale-force winds in one city changing to a moderate breeze after an hour. the rate of the pressure in space decreasing (gradient) at a specific period.
<h3>How does pulmonary ventilation change with pressure gradient?</h3>

Thoracic ventilation Because air moves down a pressure gradient, or from an area of greater pressure to an area of lower pressure, the difference in pressures is what drives pulmonary ventilation.

When breathing in and out, the respiratory airways restrict the flow of air. The air must be transported by the pressure gradient from the mount (or nose) to the pulmonary alveoli.
