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.

Why is it important to prevent gorillas from becoming extinct?
krek1111 [17]
Gorillas are a predator. They eat food and rarely ever get killed for food. But if we take away their habitat by making buildings and houses then they will die for other causes like hunger. If the gorillas go extinct then the food change will get all messed up. The food they normally eat will over populate meaning the food gorillas eat (like fruit) will over populates and take over the area. That means it will start to take up the space that other plants need to grow. The other plants that other animals will need to eat will slowly start moving away because their food is dying. They will start to go somewhere else and mess up that habitat too. Those animals will eat the food needed by the animals that lived there originally and food will become scarce for animals that all need the same type of resources.

What is another animal that exhibits an incredible phenomenon and how can it be used to make life better for humankind
Phantasy [73]
The Gecko. While human-made devices inspired by gecko feet have emerged in recent years, enabling their wearers to slowly scale a glass wall, the possible applications of gecko-adhesion technology go far beyond Spiderman-esque antics. A researcher is looking into how the technology could be applied in a high-precision industrial setting, such as in robot arms used in manufacturing computer chips.

Artyom0805 [142]
<span>Basically both operate by bouncing tiny particles or waves off of objects in order to make them visible. Electrons are smaller than light photons so we can see smaller objects clearly with electron microscopes. There are disadvantages though. First, color is a function of light wave frequency so we can't see electron micrographs in color. Color can be added artificially though by computer to differentiate structures, (think photoshop). Also, we cannot see electrons so we make them visible by bouncing them off a cathode ray screen similar to a TV set or computer monitor</span>

A nurse who is preparing to boost a client up in bed instructs the client to use the overbed trapeze. which risk factor for pres
atroni [7]
I will try my best to answer your question

Shearing forces-rationale: friction, impaired circulation, localized pressure, and shearing forces are all risk factors of pressure ulcer development; trapeze use reduces shearing forces. shearing forces (opposing forces that cause layers of skin to move over each other, stretching and tearing capillaries and, eventually, resulting in necrosis) can occur as clients slide down in bed or are pulled up in bed. subcutaneous skin layers adhere to the sheets while deeper layers, muscle, and bone slide in the direction of movement. to reduce shearing forces, the nurse should instruct the client to use an overbed trapeze, place a draw sheet under the client to move him up in bed, and keep the head of the bed no higher than 30 degrees.client needs category: physiological integrityclient needs subcategory: basic care and comfortcognitive level: applicationreference: taylor, c., et al. fundamentals of nursing: the art and science of nursing care, 6th ed. philadelphia: lippincott williams & wilkins, 2008, p. 1196.
