Translocation in vascular plants

This article is about vascular tissue in plants. For transportation in animals, see Circulatory system.

Vascular tissue is a complex conducting tissue, formed of more than one cell type, found in vascular plants. The primary components of vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem. These two tissues transport fluid and nutrients internally. There are also two meristems associated with vascular tissue: the vascular cambium and the cork cambium. All the vascular tissues within a particular plant together constitute the vascular tissue system of that plant.

The cells in vascular tissue are typically long and slender. Since the xylem and phloem function in the conduction of water, minerals, and nutrients throughout the plant, it is not surprising that their form should be similar to pipes. The individual cells of phloem are connected end-to-end, just as the sections of a pipe might be. As the plant grows, new vascular tissue differentiates in the growing tips of the plant. The new tissue is aligned with existing vascular tissue, maintaining its connection throughout the plant. The vascular tissue in plants is arranged in long, discrete strands called vascular bundles. These bundles include both xylem and phloem, as well as supporting and protective cells. In stems and roots, the xylem typically lies closer to the interior of the stem with phloem towards the exterior of the stem. In the stems of some Asterales dicots, there may be phloem located inwardly from the xylem as well.

Between the xylem and phloem is a meristem called the vascular cambium. This tissue divides off cells that will become additional xylem and phloem. This growth increases the girth of the plant, rather than it

Answer:

The Photosynthesis process

Explanation:

Plants, algae, and some other organisms can transform the sunlight energy into chemical energy. The photosynthesis process occur thanks to the chloroplasts. The chloroplast is an organelle found in all green plants. Inside of the chloroplast you can find the thylakoids which are arranged in stacks named grana, they have membranes with chloropyll a photosynthetic pigment, also you can find the photosystems, they are functional and structural units of protein complexes. The thylakoids capture the light and allow the reactions to transform CO2. The set of reactions that occurs in the chloroplasts are known as the Calvin cycle.

The general equation of photosynthesis is:

$6 CO_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + Energy -> C_{6} H_{12} 12O_{6} + 6 O_{2}$

6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy -> C6H12O6 + 6 O2

Carbon Dioxide + water + Light -> Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen

After, this glucose is transformed into pyruvate, and it allowed the release of denosine triphosphate (ATP) by cellular respiration. The ATP is an organic chemical that is requires for the cell to perform any process (any kind or work).

Which of the following processes does not facilitate containment?

Marta_Voda [28]

Enrichment of uranium-235 is done. Hence, option A is correct.

<h3>What is the meaning of containment?</h3>

The act, process, or means of keeping something within limits the containment of health costs.

Enrichment is a process of increasing the proportion of fissile isotope found in uranium ore (represented by the symbol 'U') to make it usable as nuclear fuel or the compressed, explosive core of nuclear weapons.

Hence, option A is correct.

The electron configuration of an element is 1s22s22p4. Describe what most likely happens when two atoms of this element move tow

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

When the two atoms move towards each other a compound is formed by sharing electron pairs supplied by each of the atoms to enable them have the stable 8 (octet) valency electrons in their outermost shell

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of the given element can be written as follows;

1s²2s²2p⁴

The given electronic configuration is equivalent to that of oxygen, therefore, we have;

The number of electrons in the valence shell = 2 + 4 = 6 electrons

Therefore, each atom requires 2 electrons to complete its 8 (octet) electrons in the outermost shell

When the two atoms move towards each other, they react and combine to form a compound by sharing 4 electrons, 2 from each atom, such that each atom can have an extra 2 electrons in its outermost orbit in the newly formed compound and the stable octet configuration is attained by each of the atoms in the newly formed compound.
