Answer:
light
Explanation:
The factor of photosynthesis that is maximized by the production of large, thin leaves that span over large areas is light.
<em>Light in the forest floor is limited due to the shade provided by the overstorey layers of the forest. As such, light becomes a limiting factor for photosynthesis for forest floor dwelling plants. In order to overcome this challenge, forest plants increase their leaf surface areas and thickness so as to increase light-gathering efficiency. </em>
Answer:
Glucose is a six-carbon sugar that is directly metabolized by cells to provide energy. ... A glucose molecule is too large to pass through a cell membrane via simple diffusion. Instead, cells assist glucose diffusion through facilitated diffusion and two types of active transport.
Explanation:
All of the answers presented above are correct.
Before Gregor Mendel's research, it was believed that parents' characteristics were passed down to the next generation were not inherited as separate units, but blended together in the next generation.
While he was studying the inheritance of different traits of the pea plant such as the height of the plant, the shape and color of the seed and the variability of the color of the flowers.
During his experiments, he noticed that the simple traits as height were passed down to the filial generation separately, so they were not blending in the next generation as it was previously thought.
He managed to get purebred plants for certain traits by self-pollination of the pea plants and used them for this experiments.
He determined that some of the traits were expressed more often and with a higher ratio and called them dominant, as opposed to recessive traits that were expressed less often when cross-breeding with an individual with a dominant trait.
Is this not about a human? We only have one aortic arch
Answer:
Functions of the bones in the human body:
Support, protection, movement, mineral homeostasis
Explanation:
- Support: the bones provide a rigid support frame for muscles and soft tissues.
- Protection: the bones form several cavities that protect the internal organs from possible trauma. For example, the skull protects the brain against blows, and the rib cage, formed by ribs and sternum protects the lungs and heart.
- Movement: thanks to the muscles that are inserted into the bones through the tendons and their synchronized contraction, movement occurs.
- Mineral homeostasis: the bone tissue stores a series of minerals, especially calcium and phosphorus, necessary for muscle contraction and many other functions. When necessary, the bone releases these minerals in the blood that distributes them to other parts of the body.
