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.

Which of the following denotes the divisions of the geologic time scale in correct order of decreasing lengths of time beginning
Stels [109]

Answer:

d. eon, era, period, epoch

Explanation:

The geological time scale has been made so that the scientists can have a practical system about the classification of geological time, thus everything that has happened throughout it. The geological time unites have been defined in accordance with important events that have happened, thus marking their end or beginning. These events can be mass extinctions, catastrophes, climate patterns, domination of certain species etc. The longest of these time units is the eon, lasting for more than half a billion years, and up to 2 billion years. The era comes as the second longest time unit, lasting for several hundred million years. The period lasts for several tens of million years, and the epoch is the smallest unit, lasting for few million years, or several hundred thousand years.
