The correct answer is that "xylem transports water, stomata take in carbon dioxide, and chlorophyll absorbs sunlight." The xylem is a vascular structure in plants that transport water, the phloem is another vascular structure in plants that transport nutrients. The stomata (singular; stoma) is the one responsible for the plants' gas exchange (takes in carbon dioxide, releases oxygen). The chlorophyll is what makes the green pigment of the leaves and mostly because of the presence of chloroplasts, the organelle in plant cells responsible for photosynthesis.

Why can’t nucleic acids be formed by sugars alone?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Nucleic acids

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are made up of nucleic acids found in the nuclei of living cells. They are the vehicles of genetic inheritance.

Nucleic acids are condensation polymers of nucleotides. To understand their functions you will find it helpful to look at how their molecules are built up and the structures of these molecules.

The distant ancestors of tigers may have had bodies without stripes. Use the theory of natural selection to explain how tigers m
Degger [83]

The tigers have stripes because it is advantageous for them because they are an ambush predator and need good camouflage. The stripes are excellent camouflage for places that are shady, so the tiger can easily get close to its prey and attack it.

There's a very big possibility that the distant ancestors of the tigers did not had stripes. The reasons for that are different environment, but also that the stripes are actually a very rare type of pattern among the felidae family members.

As the environment started changing, the tigers needed to adapt to it, so they also needed a different camouflage. As some tigers in the population started to develop stripes, they were better hunters, thus were stronger, and seen as suitable mates for the females, as it would provide an offspring with the advantage that the male tiger has. Through this selection in the breeding process of mates that have advantageous camouflage patterns, the stripes were becoming more and more present, to the point where they totally pushed aside and eliminated the previously dominant camouflage pattern.

When similar biological traits evolve in unrelated species due to similar environmental constraints, ____________ is said to hav
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Convergent Evolution

Explanation:

Convergent evolution occurs when two unrelated species that have no common ancestor evolve independently in order to adapt to a similar environmental constraints to ensure survival.

An example of convergent evolution can be seen in birds, bats, flight/wing insects. They all do not share a common ancestor, but have evolved, separately, a similar structure for flight.

Another example can be seen in dolphins and sharks. These two different species share similar physical characteristics that make them adapt well in marine habitat that helps them to predate .
