Answer:
a. they can fix carbon at the lower CO2 concentrations that develop when the stomata are closed
Explanation:
C4 plants are those that have the capacity to fix CO2 even when a tiny concentration of it is available.
Desert condition is characterized by dryness and strong heat with both condition capable of creating water stress in plant as a result of evapotranspiration. In order to reduce evapotranspiration rate, desert plants (most C4 plants) close their stomata during the day.
<em>Stomata closure limit the diffusion of CO2 into desert plants and the small concentration of CO2 that results is utilized by a special enzyme in the plants.</em>
The correct option is a.
Carbon dioxide in the tissues is produced as the result of oxidation of glucose...
This carbon dioxide in process of respiration diffuse out of the tissues in form of molecular carbon dioxide and join with water forming carbonic acid ...
In lungs again carbon dioxide is separated and released out of the body...
James Dewey Watson is an American molecular biologist, geneticist and zoologist. In 1953, he co-authored with Francis Crick the academic paper proposing the double helix structure of the DNA molecule. Watson, Crick, and Maurice Wilkins were awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material". Watson earned degrees at the University of Chicago and Indiana
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Hormones are bigger than the cell pores hence cannot pass through the cell membrane to influence biochemical processes. Therefore, hormones (such as glucagon and insulin) bind onto receptors on the cell membrane, then transmembrane proteins, such as the G-protein, change conformation activating the secondary messengers inside of the cell. Cyclic- AMP is a major secondary messenger significant in activating protein kinases.
Answer:
Gills
Explanation:
Sharks are fishes and thus have gills through which they absorb oxygen from the water.
On the other hand, Whales being mammals use lungs to breathe. They can’t directly obtain oxygen from water.
