Answer:

D. predicting the age of the plant

Explanation:

stems don't exactly have those powers. but they do give support by holding the plant upright. they do give defensive properties. and they do increase the amount of sun exposure (like with sunflowers). but they don't predict anything.

Study the diagram below. In which order does oxygen flow through the human circulatory system?
anyanavicka [17]
The order of flow of oxygen within the human body may be described simply. Oxygen first is inhaled through the nasal cavity and then passes through the trachea, through the bronchi and into the lungs. In the lungs, the oxygen is passed into the blood stream through the alveoli and then is carried to the heart. The heart pumps this oxygenated blood throughout the body, primarily to organs and muscle cells, where it is consumed in respiration and is converted to carbon dioxide and excreted.

12 grams of carbon react with 32 grams of oxygen to make 44 grams of carbon dioxide.
mihalych1998 [28]
12/44 = 0.2727
(X100)
= 27
( therefore the percent mass of carbon in carbon dioxide is 27%)

Compare and contrast the extracellular matrix of animals and the cell wall of plants. Consider their functions and the types of
mario62 [17]

Answer:

The plant cell wall is strengthened by the molecular structure of cellulose. Cellulose is made up of ß-glucose arranged upside down, this arrangement aided hydrogen bonds between the hydrogen ions of the  hydroxyl group and oxygen of the of the ring   of same  betta -glucose.

The aggregation of the hydrogen  bonds give bundles of  strong tensile  strength of cellulose called the  microfibrils (of 60-70 celluose molecules).They are  held together in bundled called fibers.T<u>hese is the source of  plant cell walls  strength. </u>

<u />

Collagen is the main extracellur matrix (EM) in animal cells.It is a glycoprotein made up of 25%of body protein of animals.Each collagen molecule is made of helix shaped ,three polypeptide chains, wound around each other to form<u> triple helix.</u>The bonds  holding helix together are hydrogen and covalent bonds.

Each triple helix is attached to adjacent collagen molecule, parallel  to it. The covalent bonds formed a cross link which held  the collagen molecules together forming FIBRILS.  This gives flexibility to collagen, while maitaing strong tensile strength. This is what is responsible for the structural strength of cell membrane .

.The  EM,is  futher reinforced with  carbohydrate molecules(proteoglycans) which<u> aided in water movements by  osmosis following  sodium movements into the matrix.</u>
