Answer:

A. The water pressure in the plant's vacuole is low, and without water, the chloroplasts cannot convert carbon dioxide to glucose during photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis occurs on chloroplasts which are located on the surface of leaves. Photosynthesis is the conversion of carbon dioxide, water, and light energy to produce glucose and oxygen for plants.

The vacuoles inside the plant's cell contain stored food and absorb water through osmosis. Water in the vacuole has more solutes than water outside the vacuole. This causes the Turgor Pressure which the vacuole impacts on the plants. If the reverse becomes the case, water is lost from the vacuole causing it to shrink.

Flaccidity of the vacuole and the cell wall will cause the chloroplasts where photosynthesis occurs to shrink.

In parasitic relationships,the parasite lives on the host and benefits from the host while causing harm to the host .the host does not benefit.the parasites are usually in close relationship with their host as their food source are substances of the host organisms.

The parasite may live in the host , these are called Endo-parasites.

The parasite may live outside the host, these are called ecto-parasite. In this example, the tapeworm is an endo-parasite that lives in the digestive tract of the goat. It absorbs digested food in the intestine through it's body surface.

In predator and prey relationship, the predator usually has to hunt for the prey and feed on it. It may kill it first or may not

You are operating a powerboat at night. Your red sidelight must be visible to boats approaching from which direction(s)?
Degger [83]
I believe the answer is head-on and port (left). The side lights are usually visible to vessels approaching from the front or the side. The red light usually indicates a vessel's port (left) side while the green light indicates a vessel's starboard (right) side. These lights ensure that there is safety at night as the vessels navigate.
