Leaves have air spaces to allow for carbon dioxide and oxygen to move into and out of cells for photosynthesis, which causes wat

er to evaporate and creates greater tension on the mesophyll cells. How do xylem vessels and tracheids prevent collapse in these conditions?
a. Photosynthesis is reversed at times to bring together oxygen and hydrogen ions
b. Metabolic dehydration reactions provide excess water to replace it
c. The turgor pressure of surrounding cells pushes the mesophyll cells into shape
d. Lignin keeps water flowing through the cells
e. Rings maintain their tubular shape

Answer:

They have  helical thickening of lignin in their walls to prevent collapse

Explanation:

the primary function of Xylem and its conducting vessels tracheids is to provide  support and tranport  water and  minerals  in plants.

Xylem vessels  have layers of dead materials in the walls called LIGNIN.   Lignin is a polymer; a  very strong, hard materials that stop water passage  through it,because it contains dead cells,

Therefore  the presence of  deposit of these strong  impermeable, ligified  walls  in its  walls  prevent its collapse during mass flow of water of transpiration pull.

Geographical Isolation is the mechanism that might have led to the appearance of the Hawaiian honeycreeper.

Geographical Isolation is the term used that refers to a population of animals, plants, or other organisms that are separated and unable to exchange genetic materials with other organism of the same species.

Geographical Isolation may be a result of coincidence or accident.

Here are some factors of Geographical Isolation:
1) Isolation by barriers 
2) Isolation by distance
3) Isolation after an Event
4) Isolation by separation

Indicate whether each statement is true or false. 1. Rod cells are depolarized in the dark. (Click to select) 2. Glutamate binds
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 1. true, 2. true, 3. false, and 4. true.

Explanation:

1. Rod cells are the photoreceptors present in the retina that are hyperpolarized not depolarized in dark due to sodium ions efflux.

2. Depolarisation of the bipolar cell of the retina by glutamate release by rods and cones.

3. The adaption according to the light is known as a light adaptation which takes place due to a large part of photochemical in both rods and cones which is reduced to retinal and opsins.

4. when the light reaction takes place retinal converted to opsin

Which box depicts the tissue level of organization?
Effectus [21]
<span>Levels of OrganizationIn unicellular (single-celled) organisms, the single cell performs all life functions. It functions independently. However, multicellular (many celled) organisms have various levels of organization within them. Individual cells may perform specific functions and also work together for the good of the entire organism. The cells become dependent on one another.Multicellular organisms have the following 5 levels of organization ranging from simplest to most complex:<span><span>LEVEL 1 - Cells<span><span>Are the basic unit of structure and function in living things.
</span>May serve a specific function within the organismExamples- blood cells, nerve cells, bone cells, etc.</span></span><span>LEVEL 2 - Tissues<span>Made up of cells that are similar in structure and function and which work together to perform a specific activity
Examples - blood, nervous, bone, etc. Humans have 4 basic tissues: connective, epithelial, muscle, and nerve.</span></span><span>LEVEL 3 - OrgansMade up of tissues that work together to perform a specific activityExamples - heart, brain, skin, etc.</span><span>LEVEL4 - Organ Systems 
<span>Groups of two or more tissues that work together to perform a specific function for the organism.
Examples - circulatory system, nervous system, skeletal system, etc. 
The Human body has 11 organ systems - circulatory, digestive, endocrine, excretory (urinary), immune(lymphatic), integumentary, muscular, nervous, reproductive, respiratory, and skeletal.</span></span><span>
LEVEL 5 - Organisms 
<span>
Entire living things that can carry out all basic life processes. Meaning they can take in materials, release energy from food, release wastes, grow, respond to the environment, and reproduce.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Prezygotic barriers:

1. Habitat isolation

2. Behavioral isolation

Explanation:

Pre-zygotic barriers are the barriers which do not allow the formation of the zygote in the organisms.

The two mechanisms of the pre-zygotic barriers are the:

1. Habitat isolation: the Flycatchers do not share the same habitat which is also mentioned in the question that they live on different islands.

2. The behavioural isolation: the Flycatchers could have evolved the different mating rituals as a result of which the could not interbreed.

Thus, Habitat isolation and Behavioral isolation are correct.
