Answer: The study, by Dr. Tim Brodribb and Dr. Taylor Field of the University of Tasmania and University of Tennessee, used plant physiology to reveal how flowering plants, including crops, were able to dominate land by evolving more efficient hydraulics, or 'leaf plumbing', to increase rates of photosynthesis.
Explanation: The reason for the success of this evolutionary step is that under relatively low atmospheric C02 conditions, like those existing at present, water transport efficiency and photosynthetic performance are tightly linked. Therefore adaptations that increase water transport will enhance maximum photosynthesis, exerting substantial evolutionary leverage over competing species.
The evolution of dense leaf venation in flowering plants, around 140-100 million years ago, was an event with profound significance for the continued evolution of flowering plants. This step provided a 'cretaceous productivity stimulus package' which reverberated across the biosphere and led to these plants playing the fundamental role in the biological and atmospheric functions of the earth.
According to simple diffusion. Molecules travel from high concentration to low. So it would be traveling into the cornea
<span>The correct answer is: It is used to synthesize ATP through substrate-level phosphorylation.</span>
<span>The free energy released as electrons are passed from photosystem II to photosystem I drive pumping of H+ and building a gradient. H+ flow down their gradient and when they pass through ATP synthase, the ATP is produced by substrate-level phosphorylation (ADP+Pi).</span>
<u>Answer</u>: Large collection of stars, gas, and dust held together by gravity.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- The name <em>galaxy</em> has been derived from the word <em>galaxies</em> which is a Greek word meaning milky.
- In simple words a galaxy is a collection of a large number of stars, however, to be more precise <em>a galaxy is a gravity-bound collection of stars, dust, gas, dark matter and stellar remnants. </em>
- There are different types of galaxies found in various shapes and size, some of the most common shapes being elliptical, irregular and spiral.
- An example is the milky way galaxy that contains our solar system.
