Answer:
All the above
Explanation:
A stem is one of two main structural axes of a vascular plant, the other being the root. It supports leaves, flowers and fruits, transports fluids between the roots and the shoots in the xylem and phloem, stores nutrients, and produces new living tissue.
Stems have four main functions which are:[1]
Support for and the elevation of leaves, flowers and fruits. The stems keep the leaves in the light and provide a place for the plant to keep its flowers and fruits.
Transport of fluids between the roots and the shoots in the xylem and phloem(see below)
Storage of nutrients
Production of new living tissue. The normal lifespan of plant cells is one to three years. Stems have cells called meristems that annually generate new living tissue.
Answer:
<em>The correct option is C) It does not depend on insect pollination.</em>
Explanation:
Angiosperms can simply be described as the plants which produce flowers whereas gymnosperms are the plants which do not produce flowers.
Both, the gymnosperms and the angiosperms, are capable of producing seeds. However, the seeds of the angiosperms are enclosed in an ovary. The seeds of gymnosperms are not enclosed.
<u><em>One of the major differences between gymnosperms and angiosperms is that the angiosperms have to depend on animals for pollination. On the other hand, the seeds of gymnosperms are spread through the wind and are pollinated.</em></u>
Answer:
The correct answer is 160.
Explanation:
Based on the given question, the total number of fruit flies is 1000, of which red eye flies are 640. Thus, the number of sepia eye flies will be 1000-640 = 360.
On the basis of the Hardy-Weinberg equation, p+q = 1, in which p is the rate of recurrence of one allele, that is, dominant and q is the rate of recurrence of the other allele, that is, recessive.
q^2 for the population is 360/1000 = 0.36, q = 0.6.
Therefore, p = 1-q = 1-0.6 = 0.4.
The frequency of homozygous dominant allele is denoted by p^2 = 0.16.
Hence, the number of homozygous dominant for red eye color would be 16% of 1000 which will be equal to 160.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Homologous structures compare the same anatomical features in different species. C is correct because it compares the same trait (wings) in different species (dragonfly vs. bat)
