Answer:

Glucose

Explanation:

Every cell of the body needs glucose for carrying out the metabolic processes taking place inside it. As the cell is inside blood collection tube,there will be no synthesis of erythrocytes in the tube.

The components like iron, calcium and vitamin B 12 is required for the synthesis of erythrocytes so there is no need of such components.

The cell will only require glucose to stay alive in the blood collection tube.

Natasha2012 [34]

Embryophyta is a clade within the Phragmoplastophyta, a larger clade that also includes several green algae groups. Embryophytes are the plants growing on land which include hornworts, liverworts, gymnosperms, flowering plants etc while green algae mostly thrive in aquatic environment.

The conduction of water requires vascular tissue called xylem. In green algae, it is not necessary to have water conducting tissue as the entire body is in contact with water. However in embryophytes, having a vascular tissue is an adaptation that ensures to provide water to the higher parts of the plant which is not directly in contact with the soil.
