Naily [24]

Answer:

Because Intercalary meristems are found in the the stem part of the sugarcane in whole length.

Explanation:

  • As we have studied about meristem regions, that these are the regions found at the nodal areas which are able of cell division and growth.  Intercalary meristem are present in the nodes of sugarcane stem which lead to the rapid increase in elongation of stem.
  • Intercalary meristem are located at the base of leaves and nodes that leads to the increase in length.
  • On the tip of sugarcane, apical or tip region meristem are found. When the tip region is removed, the presence of intercalary meristems play the role by facilitating the elongation of stems in sugarcane.

Please see attached image for better understanding.

Hope it helps!

Suppose a population is carrying a condition controlled by two alleles: R (dominant) and r (recessive). Only homozygous individu
White raven [17]

<span><u>The answer is A. 72.25 percent.</u>

The Hardy-Weinberg principle can be used:</span>

<em>p² + 2pq + q² = 1</em> and <em>p + q = 1</em>

where <em>p</em> and <em>q</em> are the frequencies of the alleles, and <em>p²</em>, <em>q²</em> and <em>2pq </em>are the frequencies of the genotypes.

<span>The <em>r</em> allele (<em>q</em>) is found in 15% of the population:
q = 15% = 15/100
Thus, q = </span><span>0.15

To calculate the <em>R</em> allele frequency (<em>p</em>), the formula p + q = 1 is used:
If p + q = 1, then p = 1 - q
p = 1 - 0.15
Thus, </span><span>p = 0.85

Knowing the frequency of the <em>R</em> allele (<em>p</em>), it is easy to determine the frequency of the RR genotype (p²):
p² = 0.85² = 0.7225

Expressed in percentage, p² = 72.25%.</span>

Cacti in the deserts of southwestern North America and some euphorbs of the deserts of Africa, have barrel-shaped stems, short-l
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

       The right answer to this question is option D. Convergent evolution.

Explanation:

       Convergent evolution is a process defined by when an organism develops the same, or at least near that, characteristics, for a specific reason, but they don't have the same origin. In this case, the cacti in both deserts have pretty much the same characteristics, and this happens because both these plants need water to survive, and in order to save it, they have barrel-shaped stems, short-lived leaves, and spines. All of these things help them in saving the water and capturing it when it's possible.

        The convergent evolution is when both these organisms develop equally, but are not originally from the same place, the environment being the one to shape this.
