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

qaws [65]

Answer:

Lateral Hypothalamus

Explanation:

According to the hunger researchers' initial assumption lateral hypothalamus is that part of the brain which regulates intake of food and metabolical activities like metabolical regulation of peptides like  the orexins melanin-concentrating hormone. It is that part of the brain that plays a key role in the ingestive behavior regulation.

The lateral hypothalamus system initiates physical and cognitive processes like it promotes arousal and feeding behavior, metabolism, regulates body temperature, BP, etc. and when stimulated it results in the feeding behaviour in animals as they begin to eat.
