Which of these is NOT an interaction between a plant's root and shoot systems?

Biology
1 answer:
olga_2 [115]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The stomata open to allow carbon dioxide to enter the leaves.

Explanation:

Higher plants are made up of two major system parts namely: shoot system and root system. The shoot system constitutes every part of the plant above the ground i.e leaves, fruits, stem etc. while the root system constitutes the part below ground i.e the roots. The shoot system and root system, however, interacts in several ways to ensure that the plant functions optimally. The ways they interact include:

- The roots (root system) absorb water from the soil, which is transported upwards to prevent leaves (shoot system) from drying up.

- The phloem, which is a conducting tissue, transports sugars (product of photosynthesis) from the leaves (shoot system) to the root nodules (root system) for storage.

- Nutrients are absorbed from the soil by the roots (root system) and moved to the stems (shoot system).

Note that, although it is true that "stomata in the leaves open to allow carbon dioxide to enter the leaves", there is no connection between the shoot and root system.

A particularly long radio wave has a wavelength of 1.5 x 10^9 meters. What is the frequency of this radio wave?
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

0.2Hz

Explanation:

The wavelength of a radiowave can be calculated this;

λ = v/f

Where;

λ = Wavelength (m)

v = speed (m/s)

f = frequency (Hz)

Based on the information provided in this question, λ = 1.5 x 10^9 meters, c = 3 × 10^8m/s, f = ?

Hence, using λ = v/f

f = v/λ

f = 3 × 10^8 ÷ 1.5 x 10^9

f = 2 × 10^(8-9)

f = 2 × 10^-1

f = 0.2Hz

Explain how human embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells, and skin cells taken from the same person would be the same and how th
nexus9112 [7]
All three cells would be similar since they all share the same hysteroscopic pathology being that they are all from the same individual. However, the ways in which they are different are vast and can be described ad nauseam. Suffice it to say that an embryonic stem cell is the most pure form of a cell, and can be used in a variety of different stem cell therapies for that reason. The skin cells would be most useful in terms of skin grafts, while adult stem cells are found only in mature individuals (ie: adults) and have little purpose other than supplying the organism with energy storage capacities.The differences briefly described here are due, in large part, to the tenets of the cell theory which states that all organisms, whether single celled or otherwise, are comprised of one or more cells containing DNA.
