Answer:
1) Accommodation is the process of changing the shape of the lens to focus on near or distant objects.
- <em>To focus on a near object</em> – the lens becomes thicker, this allows the light rays to refract (bend) more strongly.
- <em>To focus on a distant object </em>– the lens is pulled thin, this allows the light rays to refract slightly.
2) - i don't know. im so sorry -
Answer:
The correct answer would be - 50%.
Explanation:
Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder that takes place in males more than in females as females have two X chromosomes so if one is affected other still able to make clotting factors but in males, there are only one x chromosome.
If a hemophilic man XhY marries with a carrier women XHXh then the chances of their son for normal blooding would be :
Gametes:
Male: Xh and Y
Female: XH and Xh
Then cross:
Xh Y
XH XHXh XHY
(carrier daughter) (normal son)
Xh XhXh XhY
(hemophilic daughter) (hemophilic son)
Thus, the chances of normal son is 50% among sons
Answer:
a) i) Xylem
ii) Upper epidermis
iii) Stoma
iv) Chroloplast
v) Palisade cell layer
b) By a waxy layer on the cuticle of the leaf
Explanation:
The plant's leaves have a large surface area that is capable of absorbing sunlight. The plant's waxy layer in the surface of the leaf protects it from the loss of water, as well as of diseases caused by the entry of microorganisms. The palisade cell's surface is a single layer of cells underneath the upper epidermis that is adapted to absorb light energy.
The waxy layer is a primary physical barrier composed of insoluble polymers and lipids whose function is to protect the leaves against the entry of harmful organisms including virus, bacteria and fungus. Moreover, the plant's waxy cuticle is also a barrier that prevents the loss of water and solutes.
