Answer: A cell is defined as the smallest functional units of the body

Explanation:

These cells are grouped together to form tissues, each of which has a specialised function, example blood, muscles, bone. Different tissues are grouped together to form organs with a special function. For example heart is an organ made up of muscles tissue, connective tissue, nervous tissue and vascular tissue. These tissues work in a coordinated manner and enable the heart to carry out the broader function of pumping blood continuously.

While organs are grouped together to form systems, each of which performs a particular function that maintains the body Internal environment and contribute to the health of the individual. For example the digestive system is responsible for taking in, digesting and absorbing food which involves a number of organs, including the stomach and intestines.

Therefore the statement that 'organs are large structures that keeps us alive" is a correct claim.

How does a dichotomous key help you identify unknown specimens based on their traits? Answer with details about the format and s
Aneli [31]
A dichotomous key helps you identify unknown specimens based on their traits because there are only two options available per trait. Selecting one from the two options (usually contrasting characteristics) from each step leads to smaller and smaller groups until the option is reduced to single and unique trait of an organism.

Considering you need to identify an organism. So, on the top of they key is animal with options: (a) with red blood cells and (b) no red blood cells. The option you will select is no red blood cells and under option b, you’re given two choices again: (a) hard bodies and (b) soft bodies. You’ll select soft bodies, then two options again are given: (a) with shell and (b) without shell. The option you’ll select would be without shell, and so on.

Why is the phloem in a leaf important to the roots of a plant apex?
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- phloem transports photsynthetic products to the roots

Explanation:

Phloem is the vascular tissue which specializes in transporting the solute molecules like sugar in the form of sucrose to in the plants.

The phloem connects the photosynthetic organ (Leaves)  to non-photosynthetic organs (stem and roots) of the plants by transporting the photosynthates or sucrose to various parts.

Since the roots also need the energy to perform metabolic functions so need the photosynthates to synthesize the energy molecule. They receive the photosynthates from the phloem.

Thus, phloem transports photosynthetic products to the roots is the correct answer.
