Reduction in the rate of transpiration enables a plant to conserve more water.

Transpiration refers to the loss of water from the leaves of a plant. A plant that is found in desert areas (xerophytes) does not need to loos a lot of water hence it must develop adaptations to minimize the rate of transpiration.

Adaptations to reduce transpiration rate are;

  • Reduction of leaves to spines
  • Possession of waxy cuticle
  • reduction in the size of the stomata

Hence, reduction in the rate of transpiration enables a plant to conserve more water.

How does Natural selection apply to yourself as an individual? will mark the brainliest answer
NARA [144]

Answer:

Natural selection occurs when some of those traits help some individuals survive and reproduce more than others. That causes their genes to become more common in the population over time, and it's the way species evolve to adapt to changes in their environment.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

O founder's effect

Explanation:

A founder effect can be defined as the loss of genetic variation when a new population is established from a few individuals. This process is known to increase the frequency of particular gene variants (alleles) at different <em>loci</em> when they are selectively neutral (or nearly neutral), and thereby such genes are fixed by genetic drift (i.e., through the random sampling of founder individuals). Interestingly, it has been discovered that the majority of South American and Central American Indians are nearly exclusively in the O blood group, which has been further associated with random genetic drift and a founder effect.

15 points!!<br> What does it mean when we say that water molecules break apart?
Mama L [17]

In the case of water, hydrogen bonds form between neighboring hydrogen and oxygen atoms of adjacent water molecules. ... However, because hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds, in liquid water they form, break, and reform easily. Thus, the exact number of hydrogen bonds formed per molecule varies.
