Worldwide, nearly one-third of the
population does not have access to clean drinking water.
B. Increased exposure to UV light increases the risk of mutation occurring.
According to a source the answer is <span><u>Cyanobacteria were the first organisms to produce oxygen in water, which then escaped into the atmosphere.</u>
These cyanobacteria species were the first ones to "produce" oxygen as a by-product of the photosynthetic mechanisms which enables organisms to make their own food. </span>
The water enters the xylem first by osmosis. Water moves from the soil to the root hair cell down a water potential gradient, and to the root cortex cell from a higher water potential to a lower water potential, this process will be repeated until water enters xylem. Because transpiration is occurring in the leaf, water is lost so there is a lower water potential inside the leaf. Osmosis moves water from the xylem to the leaf because the xylem has a higher water potential. Water moves from the xylem to the cells of the leaf. This pulls water up the xylem via cohesion which is the process of water molecules attracting each other and sticking together. Water does not fall down the xylem as here is adhesion which is the process of water molecules sticking to the inside of the xylem.
Climate change cannot be
measured with a single instruments but require thousands of measuring devices
that spread across the globe, land and under the sea. Thus,parameters
measured in climate change includes: Rainfall, Sunshine hours, Temperature, Relative
humidity, Atmospheric pressure, Wind speed .
However, there are various instruments used for the measuring of climate
change and they can be classified as follows: weather balloons and buoys, thermometers, wind anemometers,
Manual rain gauges, transmitting rainfall gauges and Automatic Weather
Stations
