This space station has plants growing inside it, and astronauts who eat the fruits and vegetables from those plants. Because it

is in space, the station is sealed so no material can get in or out.
The space station is in Earth’s shadow, so no light is getting into it. The sensors in the space station show that carbon dioxide in the air is increasing.

What is happening to the energy storage molecules in the plants and humans in the space station? Explain your answer as completely as possible.

<u><em>Growing plants in space is tough -- low gravity means water distribution is difficult to manage, the roots are often starved of oxygen, and stagnant air reduces evaporation and increases the leaf temperature</em></u>

2. True or False<br> Ice is less than dense than water.
seraphim [82]

Answer. True

Explanation:

When water freezes, water molecules form a crystalline structure maintained by hydrogen bonding. Solid water, or ice, is less dense than liquid water. Ice is less dense than water because the orientation of hydrogen bonds causes molecules to push farther apart, which lowers the density.

Why is chlorophyll not able to capture the energy in green light​
mariarad [96]

All plants have chlorophyll-a which blocks(reflects) green light and absorbs red and blue wavelengths. It seems like it would be more efficient for plants to absorb green light since energy is most powerful from the sun through green wavelengths. However, the chlorophyll-a in chloroplasts actually defend the plant from harmful damage of the TREMENDOUS amount of power from the sun transmitted in green wavelengths.

SO CHLOROPHYLL-A PROTECTS PLANTS FROM TOO MUCH ENERGY IN GREEN LIGHT.

Form a hypothesis about the relationship between vegetable mass and salinity of the solution
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

HYPOTHESIS: IF the salinity of the solution decreases, THEN the vegetable mass increases.

Explanation:

Hypothesis, in an experiment, is a testable explanation or prediction made to solve an observed problem or answer a question. It shows how one variable called independent variable affects another variable called dependent variable. It is usually written in the "IF, THEN" format.

In this case, the question states that there is a relationship between vegetable mass and salinity of the solution. This means that the question has been asked that "Why is the vegetable's mass affected by salinity of a solution". Hence, a hypothesis can read:

IF the salinity of the solution decreases, THEN the vegetable mass increases.

Shelly has a terrarium on her windowsill containing various houseplants. She wonders why the edges of the leaves often have wate
katovenus [111]
The reason that the edges of the leaves have water droplets is because plants lose most of their excess water through the stomata. this process is also called as transpiration. This can be seen mostly during the early morning time. I hope the answer comes to your help.

Chapter 4 Review
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A rainforest is humid, therefore, water uptake would likely not be an issue. However, rainforests have a huge number of trees, often these are very tall. These large trees might block out the sun from the smaller plants nearer the ground. This means they would struggle to properly photosynthesise, as they wouldn't have the necessary light energy.

Therefore, as a survival adaptation, it is likely that an allele that produced broader leaves for photosynthesis would be selected for in this population. Broader leaves would give a larger surface area for the plant to absorb light energy to perform photosynthesis.
