A water lily will have more stomata. A desert cactus will have very few stomata, because in deserts plants face water shortage so in order to avoid loss of water cacti have adapted to the desert environment by possessing few stomata.

ATP transports and releases energy within cells that can be used for many cellular processes. How does ATP make this energy avai
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Chemical energy that is stored in the food molecules such as sugars are converted into the chemical energy that is available for the cell to perform various cellular functions, it is stored in ATP known as the currency of the cell.

ATP has three phosphate groups attached to adenosine by a phosphoanhydride bond. When a cell requires energy it loses the third phosphate group and releases a huge amount of energy stored in the phosphoanhydride group and form ADP.

When the second phosphate group is lost by breaking the bond again energy is released again left AMP. The breaking of this bond takes place due to hydrolysis reaction

Since prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound orgnelles, many metabolic functions in the cell take place...
topjm [15]

Since prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound orgnelles, many metabolic functions in the cell take place in the cytoplasm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The cytoplasm is the gel-like element encompassed inside the cell membrane, which is built up of water, proteins, nucleic acids, inorganic salts, etc. Largest metabolic activities take place inside the cytoplasm, and subcellular structures, like ribosomes, plasmids, and cytoplasmic granules, are placed in the cytoplasm.

Cytosol comprises a mix of molecules such as protein complexes, enzymes, and more. All this composition functions collectively to take out metabolic functions inside the cytoplasm, enabling organelles to communicate with one another. In a way, cytosol itself has no function, but allows for many other functions to take place within it, much like the larger cytoplasm network itself.

 The major components of PM are sulphates, nitrates, ammonia, sodium chloride, black carbon, dust particles and water. PM comes from dust , soot, smoke, industry and vehicle exhaust as well as complex chemical reactions with other pollutants.

 Burning of fossil fuels produces sulphur dioxide . It is a colorless gas that pollutes the air and can cause health problems affecting the respiratory system.

The Greatest salt lake in Utah has a saline content that can be up to ten times greater than the ocean. It is fed by three fresh
Vesnalui [34]

The tributaries carry small amounts of salt into the lake

<u>Explanation</u>:

The Greatest salt lake is one of the most saline inland water body in the world.The water carried to this lake by the tributaries is very less as compared to the amount  of the salt present in the lake. Rest part of the salt remains in the lake as such.

When the water from the lake gets evaporated, it leaves behind the salt. When time passes by, or years of inflow and evaporation salts they gets deposited layer over layer. The amount of salt added leads to formation of new minerals on the sea floor.
