The xylem is made from dead, hollow cells.
<span>
Tracheids and vessel elements are the main components of xylem witch have a function to transport water. Those are elongated dead cells at maturity (without protoplast) with a thick, strengthened cellulose cell wall and a hollow lumen. Even though they are dead they still maintain a function, because are being protected by surrounding living cells.</span>
Answer:
Composite, shield, cinder cones, and supervolcanoes are the main types of volcanoes.
Composite volcanoes are tall, steep cones that produce explosive eruptions.
Shield volcanoes form very large, gently sloped mounds from effusive eruptions.
Volcanoes have several shapes, which are controlled by the composition of the magma and the nature of its eruption. If a volcano produces very fluid lava (low in the compound SiO2, or silica), the magma flows a long distance before it cools, making a flat, shield-shaped volcano.

Answer:
Earth is between the Moon and the Sun.
Explanation:
Because the moon has moved in its orbit so that the earth is between the Moon and the Sun.
Glucose is virtually the sole fuel for the human brain, except during prolonged starvation. The brain lacks fuel stores, thus requires a continuous supply of glucose. It consumes about 120 g daily which corresponds to an energy input of 420 kcal (1760 KJ), accounting for some 60% of the utilization of glucose by the whole body in the resting state.
The answer above is incorrect. The correct answer is James Watson accompanied by Francis Crick.
