For which one of the following functions is parenchyma tissue particularly suited?
serious [3.7K]

Reinforcement and support

parenchyma, in plants, tissue typically composed of living cells that are thin-walled, unspecialized in structure, and therefore adaptable, with differentiation, to various functions. The cells are found in many places throughout plant bodies and, given that they are alive, are actively involved in photosynthesis, secretion, food storage, and other activities of plant life. Parenchyma is one of the three main types of ground, or fundamental, tissue in plants, together with sclerenchyma (dead support tissues with thick walls) and collenchyma (living support tissues with irregular walls).

How does an area's weather differ from the area's climate?
DerKrebs [107]

C

Weather is the day-to-day changes in the atmospheric conditions of  regions. Weather parameters are usually temperatures, humidity, rainfall, air pressure, and etcetera. These vary greatly every so often on a daily basis. Climate, on the other hand is categories into arctic, subarctic, subterranean, Mediterranean, temperature, equatorial, and etcetera.

Explanation:

When weather is studied for a long time, such as for over 30 years, general weather patterns can be discerned that will determine the climate of the region. These general weather patterns over a region will make up its climate. Climate does not change considerably. Therefore the climate of a region remains steady. If the climate of a region changes it does so ever so slightly over millennia  and would change because of phenomena like earth’s tectonic plate movements, space phenomenons, and human activities.

16. Explain why pollution caused the shift in the phenotypes of the peppered moth during the Industrial Revolution. (2pts)
andrey2020 [161]

Answer/Explanation:

Pollution during the industrial revolution caused trees to become covered with soot, making them darker. This dark appearance meant that the peppered moth, which usually had a light colour, was clearly visible against the tree. This meant it was easier for predators to identify. As a result, their numbers decreased because they were an easier target.

However, there was also a rarer form of the moth, which was dark in colour. These were initially very rare. However, because of the change in the tree colour owing to the industrial revolution, these moths were better suited to the environment, as they were more camouflaged against the dark tree. This meant it was easier for them to avoid predators, and so they were more likely to survive to reproductive age and pass on the genes that produce the dark colour.  This meant that the dark moths increased in number.
