Answer:
In the process of photosynthesis, trees tend to take up carbon dioxide and water and convert it into oxygen and glucose. In this way, trees help in reducing the amount of carbon dioxide from the air which is otherwise a source of global warming. The process of photosynthesis also yields oxygen which is beneficial for life on earth.
The trees also store carbon inside them hence, reducing global warming. The more the trees, the more will be the chances of carbon being reduced from the atmosphere and being stored in the trees.
Plant processes like transpiration help to lower the temperature around them. Hence, more the trees, lesser will be the rise in temperature.
Answer:
Scientific theories can never be proven true beyond all doubt; they can only be supported by a wide body of evidence. Only one of the statements that follow uses the term theory in its correct, scientific sense.
Explanation:
Answer:
1500
Explanation:
Let's assume that the allele for yellow seed color is "Y" and the allele for green seed color is "y". Genotype of pure breeding yellow seeded plant would be "YY" and that of the green seeded plant would be "yy". A cross between YY and yy gives all heterozygous yellow seeded plants (Yy) in F1 progeny. Self pollination of two F1 plants (Yy x Yy) obtains F2 generation in 3 yellow: 1 green ratio.
The total population size of F2 generation = 2000
The proportion of yellow seeded plants in F2 generation = 3/4 (since the F2 phenotype ratio is given 3 yellow: 1 green)
Therefore, total number of yellow seeded plants in F2 progeny = 3/4 x 2000= 1500
Red blood cells are disc shaped. It is thought one factor that allows them to have this shape is because they do not have a nucleus. This tends to increase amount of space inside the cell for hemoglobin.
They have a flexible disc shape which helps increase the surface- to- area volume ratio which enables oxygen and carbon dioxide to diffuse across the red blood cell's plasma membrane more readily.
Their disc shape also enables them to squeeze through tiny capillaries that are half their size .
