Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Options for the question

A)import seeds produced in the southern hemisphere.

B)plant the flowers out-of doors in november.

C)keep the plants in a warm growing environment.

D)expose the plants to an hour of light in the middle of each night until the end of april.

Solution

Since Chrysanthemum is a short-day plant, its flower mainly develop during night and hence they require long nights of 11 to 12 hours. Blackout system is sometimes used to induce flowering.Flowering can be delayed by regulating both light and temperature. this is done by exposing plants for a short period of time to light (can be artificial) and to some source of heat that produces 85° F or higher temperature.  

Thus if flowers are required in month of may, flowering can be delayed by exposing Chrysanthemums plant to light and heat source during night time

Option D is correct

Which condition is characterized by excessive destruction of circulating red blood cells?
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Answer is hemolytic anemia.

Explanation:

Hemolysis is the destruction of red-blood cells, while anemia when the amount of the red blood cells in the body is lower than the expected or normal.

Therefore, hemolytic anemia can be defined as a disorder or situation where the rate at which the red blood cells are destroyed is faster compared to the rate at which they are made or produced.

This can be caused by bone marrow failure or infections, and inherited blood disorder like sickle cell disease.

The hemolytic anemia is a serious disorder that can damage the heart and other organ of the body, this is because of oxygen starvation, since the red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen around the body have been affected.

Eating some food items like beans, green vegetables, red meat and legumes can increase red blood cell count.

What do anaerobic organisms have in common with photosynthetic organisms?
Dvinal [7]

Ans is option C. They both need an energy source in order to survive.

Energy is an absolute necessity to survive on this earth. All living organisms need energy be it anaerobic or photosynthetic.  Photosynthetic organisms can make their own food in the presence of sunlight by photosynthesis and harness energy from it. Anaerobic organisms can also make their own food in the absence of sunlight with the help of inorganic molecules like hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3), sulphur (S) etc.

Its just that anaerobic organism's way of harnessing energy is different from those of aerobes/photosynthetic organisms but they need energy source for sure.
