Answer:

D. placenta

Explanation:

The placenta is a structure formed by both fetal and maternal tissues. Placenta in placental mammals such as human serves as a site where nutrients and waste are exchanged between fetus and mother in the uterus during the embryonic development.  

The placenta is connected to the embryo by the umbilical cord. The nutrients and oxygen are diffused from maternal blood vessels into the intervillous space and finally to the capillaries of the fetus.

How can you expect them to concern themselves with your problems?
gregori [183]
Definitely i would expect them to concern themselves with your problems when they are so beset with their own. Beset means having a lot of trouble with something, or having to deal with a lot of something causes problems. For example in a sentence; With the amount of traffic nowadays, even a trip across town is beset with dangers.

The genetic code is based upon the reading of how many bases at a time?
Degger [83]
The genetic code is based upon reading 3 bases at a time

there are 4 nucleotides bases in DNA and 20 amino acids .
In order to incorporate all the amino acids we consider 3 bases in genetic code
4 x 4 x 4 = 64

if we would take 2 bases -
4x4 = 16 that would leave out 4 amino acids without a code .

Describe the vascular system of plants. Include brief descriptions of the characteristics and function of xylem and phloem.
solong [7]

Answer:

The vascular tissue of the plants distributes water and nutrients, which guarantees a constant growth. Each newly formed cell needs to become the corresponding cell type in vascular tissue.

Explanation:

Like animals, plants need water and nutrients. While animals use a circulatory and digestive system to obtain and distribute nutrients, plants use a vascular system. This system absorbs water, vitamins and minerals from the soil and then transmits energy in the form of carbohydrates to the roots. The main components of the vascular system are the xylem and the phloem.

<u>Xylem</u> is a complex tissue formed by several cell types. Its function is the conduction of water and minerals from the root to the leaves. Among the cells that form this complex tissue differ:

- Conductive cells or tracheal elements: they are dead elements at maturity, they serve for vertical conduction and support

- Vessel members are observed in Angiosperms, the largest plant group with the most recent evolution; They are short, wide cells with thick secondary walls, they differ from tracheids because they are perforated elements.

- Storage elements: parenchymal cells, thick walls, secondary, can present crystals and other cellular contents.

- Support elements: fibers in the Angiosperms and fibrotracheids in Gymnosperms, elements of intermediate characters between the fibers and the tracheids.

<u> Phloem</u> cells conduct food (photosynthesis produced by photosynthesis) from the leaves to the rest of the plant. They are living cells at maturity and in histological preparations colored with Astrablue take the color blue. Phloem cells are located outside the xylem.

The sieve elements of this tissue are: the sieve cells in the Gymnosperms and the members of sieve tubes with their respective accompanying cells in the Angiosperms. The accompanying cells retain their nuclei and control the neighboring sieve tubes. Dissolved food, such as sucrose, circulates through the screened areas that connect these cells to each other.

Being a complex tissue, it also has parenchymal cells for storage and fibers and sclereids as a support.
