Answer:D

Explanation: Because it has the least amount of density in it. All the others are heavier, meaning they will sink. Just like if you drop a rock water and a feather, the feather will float.

Density def:

Density, mass of a unit volume of a material substance. ... Density offers a convenient means of obtaining the mass of a body from its volume or vice versa; the mass is equal to the volume multiplied by the density (M = Vd), while the volume is equal to the mass divided by the density (V = M/d).

True or False. In order for a dead organism to become a fossil, it is not important
UNO [17]
False, because most organisms decompose fairly quickly after they die. For an organism to be fossilized, the remains usually need to be covered by sediment soon after death. hope this helps :))

What are the different structures and functions of roots?
seraphim [82]

Different structures and functions of roots

Explanation:

Roots are the underground descending non-green part of the plant.

Root functions: Anchorages the plant to the soil, absorbs water and nutrients from the soil.

Characteristics: Positively geotropic and hydrotropic, negatively phototropic; does not have nodes, internodes or stems.

Types:  

  • Tap root
  • Adventitious root – fibrous, foliar and true adventitious roots

Structure and functions:  

  • Root cap or Calyptra: Cap-like structure covering the root tip .
  1. Function: protects the meristematic tissues of the root, secretes mucilage which enhances the root tips to grow into the hard soil.
  • Meristematic zone or growing point  sub-terminal behind root cap. These cells are inverted and looks like a dome.
  1. Function – helps in the root growth by adding new cells to the root tip and other basal regions
  • Zone of elongation behind the meristematic zone.
  1. Function – helps in elongation of the root
  • Root hair zone: This is the zone of differentiation where cells differentiate into vascular tissues like phloem, xylem, endodermis, cortex etc.
  1. The main function of root hair is to increase the total surface area of root to facilitate more absorption of water and other nutrients from the soil
  • Zone of maturation: the major and mature portion of a root.
  1. Function  - lateral roots originates from this zone and radial differentiation leads to secondary growth.

Xelga [282]
The correct answer is a law

Laws explain what occurs, not why it occurs. This is a law because it states that a limp stalk of celery will become crisp if put into ice water. There is no explanation why or how it occurs, only that it will happen.
