Answer:

To survive in drought conditions, plants need to decrease transpiration to limit their water loss. Some plants that live in dry conditions have evolved to have smaller leaves and therefore fewer stomata. Extreme examples are plants with leaves that resemble spiky thorns or spines.

Phosphatases are a family of enzymes that remove phosphate groups from specific proteins; these phosphate groups had been added
guapka [62]

Answer:

Kinases would stop working too.

Explanation:

Cells work constantly to maintain homeostasis or equilibrium within themselves. One of the mechanisms used for this purpose is feedback. As mentioned in the question, kinases put phosphates on proteins, and then, phosphatases take them off. Therefore, for phosphatases to work, kinases must be working at the same pace. By inhibiting the phosphatases the number of phosphate-proteins will be too high. This can be perceived by the kinases and they will automatically stop working since there's an excess of product. That process is called feedback.

Select all that apply. Choose the cells that are diploid. egg nerve bone sperm muscle
Natali5045456 [20]
The diploid cells in this case include nerve cell, bone cell and muscle cell. A diploid cell is a cell that contains two sets of chromosomes, which is double the haploid chromosome number. They include all the somatic cells with exception of germ line cells. Gametes are haploid cells meaning they only have one set of chromosomes. During sexual reproduction, gametes (sperm and egg cells) fuse at fertilization to form a diploid zygote which develops into a diploid organism.
