Answer:

Explanation:

The family Cecidomyiidae in the order Diptera (flies) have many species that intergrade between gall making and leaf mining. The tulip spot gall, Thecodipolosis liriodendri, is only a slight thickening of the leaf while the tar-spot gall, produced by a species in the genus Asteriomyia has even less thickening and is little more than a leaf mine. The boxwood leaf miner, Monarthropalpus buxi, makes a leaf mine but the surrounding tissues proliferate.

Does carbon dioxide enter a plant when the guard cells swell or when they shrink?
ElenaW [278]

Answer: When cells swell up

Explanation: Plants need carbon dioxide and <u>stomata allow the plant to take in carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis</u>. The "lips" are actually individual cells (called guard cells) <u>that can swell up to open the stomata</u> or deflate to close them off.

You work for the WWF. Write a letter to the mayor of a small farm town to explain why this town is experiencing erosion, and why
horrorfan [7]

The letter should contain concerns about the causes and ill effects of erosion.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Sir,

I am very sad to inform you that the town of Hariharanpur is suffering from continuous erosion for the last 3 years. Even after having proper knowledge about this fact, you being the mayor, are not taking any charge of this situation.

The town is situated just by the side of River Ganges which makes it's soil full of moisture. Along with the repeated deforestation and tree cutting for urbanisation, the smallest of the rain falls are also eroding a lot of soils. This can lead to severe landslides in river Ganges with severe loss of properties as well as loss of lives too.

So i request you to start embanking the river as well as to start planting new trees to save the town from getting lost under Ganges.

Thanking you,

XYZ.

Based on the model explain whether the molecules shown crossing the membrane require energy to do so
Svetach [21]

Answer:

As the diagram is not given, hence let's generally describe the movement of molecules along the cell membrane.

Molecules can either pass through the cell without using energy through the process of passive transport. An example includes molecules of oxygen.

Molecules which are large and un-polar cannot move through the cell membrane easily. These molecules will require energy to move through the cell membrane. These molecules might move in with the help of the carrier or facilitated proteins. Examples include molecules of glucose.
