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.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

25% red flowered

25% white flowered

50% pink flowered

Explanation:

Let the red flower color be represented by RR, the white color by rr.

When RR was crossed with rr, the offspring had pink flowers;

RR   x   rr = Rr, Rr, Rr, Rr (Pink color)

Crossing Rr with another Rr

Rr   x   Rr  = RR, Rr, Rr, rr

RR = red

Rr = pink

rr = white

<em>Hence, if a pink flowered plant is crossed with another pink flowered plant, 25% of their offspring will be red, 25% will be white and 50% will be pink.</em>
