Answer:
Water uptake is one of the initial steps during seed germination. Subsequently, the radicle and embryo axis elongate (Bewley, 1997). Because the initial steps and cell elongation require high rates of water flow into the cells, a role of plant aquaporins during germinatoin was anticipated (Maurer, 1997).
Measure the amount of energy in the phytoplankton and the amount of light entering the aquarium. Then measure the amount of energy in the phytoplankton after exposure to the light and determine the difference.
Explanation:
Phytoplanktons like most of the plants use chlorophyll, sunlight and carbon di-oxide for photosynthesis but it depends on other organisms to consume extra energy as they are unable to gain enough energy from their consumption of light. This differs among the different species of planktons.
It can be observed in an aquarium that a phytoplankton is gaining less energy than the energy they have absorbed by the light and this can be done by measuring the energy before and after the photosynthesis.
Organisms that inhabit intertidal zones must be able to tolerate radical changes in temperature, salinity, and moisture and also be able to withstand wave shock. Intertidal zone is the coastal area alternately exposed and submerged by tides. Tide pool animals and plants are well adapted to the intertidal zones. Some adaptations include; the ochre sea star can tolerate a longer time period exposed to air than many other sea stars. They regularly withstand up to eight hours of exposure during low tides.
Between 2015 and 2020, the rate of deforestation was estimated at 10 million hectares per year, down from 16 million hectares per year in the 1990s. The area of primary forest worldwide has decreased by over 80 million hectares since 1990.
Hope this helps!
