Answer:

The water is transported to the top most leaves (and rest of its parts) of a tall tree by three actions:

1) root pressure (osmosis)

2) capillary action (adhesion)

3) evapotranspiration (cohesion)

Explanation:

The trees contain a series of interconnected tissues (xylem and phloem) that act as network for transport of water and nutrients throughout the tree. The root pressure and capillary action push the water, while the transpiration from the leaves pull the water. The root pressure is generated by osmotic movement of water from soil to the root tissues. The capillary action is caused due to adhesion of water molecules. However, root pressure and capillarity is thought to support only few meters of water column. The rest of the water transport (esp. in tall trees) is attributed to negative pressure generated by evaporation of water from leaves. This negative pressure creates a vacuum and pulls the water from the roots.

Hope this helps.

Draw a flow chart/concept map that illustrates the mechanism whereby the faulty cf gene causes the production of thick mucus wit
Artyom0805 [142]
So the flowchart should go like this:
Mutation in the CFTR gene >>>>>> Production of defective CFTR protein >>>>>> defective CFTR protein in cell membrane or no protein at all   >>>>>>>   Impaired ion transport across the cells   >>>>>>>   Cells secrete less chloride >>>>>>>   leads to more re-absorption of sodium and water into the cells   >>>>>>>   decreased hydration of mucus present outside the cells as more water is absorbed into the cells    >>>>>>>>   thick viscous mucus.

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Trichromatic vision.

Explanation:

Trichromatic theory may be defined as the theory that posses of three independent channels that are used to convey the color information. They are derived from the three different cone cells.

The television also produce three primary colors by the use of trichromatic theory. The receptor or these colors in human are greater than three as different colors have different intensity of light.  The opsin protein plays an important role in the trichromatic vision.

Thus, the answer is trichromatic vision.
