Answer:
(B) open stomata only at night, limiting water loss because of heat and low humidity.
Explanation:
CAM plants are found in the regions characterized by very hot and dry environmental conditions. These plants reduce the water loss through transpiration by exhibiting CAM photosynthesis.
They open the stomata during night time when the air is cooler and rich in moisture. They take in CO2 during night time and fix it into the oxaloacetate which in turn is converted into malate and is stored in the vacuoles.
During day time, stomata remain closed to prevent water loss and the CO2 trapped during night time (released by decarboxylation of malate) enter the Calvin cycle.
Correct answer: D). The organism is buried in sediment and then dissolved by underground water
Mold is a copy of an organism, it is formed like the first layer of sediments harden and forms a mold. Then after that new layer of sediment fills and become hardens.
The fossil is left behind in sediment, which removes the remains of an organism from its surrounding material. The groundwater along with its mineral content dissolves the organic matter to form the fossil.
This is a scientific question because you could conduct an experiment to test the theory.
