A plant's photoperiod is the amount of time each day that the plant receives sunlight. A plant with a 12L:12D photoperiod receiv

es 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark per day. A researcher investigated whether photoperiod affects the development of flower buds in chrysanthemums, a type of flowering plant. She maintained three samples of chrysanthemums that did not initially have any flower buds under different photoperiods. After two weeks, the researcher recorded the presence or absence of flower buds in each sample. The researcher's results are shown in the table. Sample Photoperiod Results 1 13L:11D fully developed flower buds formed on all plants 2 14L:10D partly developed flower buds formed on some plants 3 15L:9D no buds formed on any plant Which statement is best supported by the researcher's findings?

Answer:

13L:11D

Explanation:

Based on the photoperiod there are two types of plants -  

a) Short day plant  

b) Long day plant

Here the term short and long day do not mean that the provided length of day are the critical length of day required for reproduction. But opposite to that it means that the length of the day required for reproduction must be  

a) Shorter than the defined length of day for short day plant  

b) And longer than the defined length of day for long day plant  

Chrysanthemums  is a short day plant and thus option 1 with 13L:11D will produce fully developed flower buds

Option A is correct 13L:11D

How does a cow use the sugar molecules stored in the grass it eats?
11111nata11111 [884]

ANSWER: A living organism intakes food, it breaks down into mostly water and large organic molecules. These large organic molecules are Fat, Proteins, Glucose, Starch and Cellulose. These molecules are still not usable by the cells so the body breaks these large polymers into small monomers.

In cow's muscles, protein muscles are built by tapping 4 amino acid monomers. Fat muscles are built by tapping 3 fatty acid monomers and 1 glycerol molecule.

Cows use glucose molecules to mix with oxygen to release chemical energy in cellular respiration. Cows can make fat molecules and glucose molecules because fatty acids and glycerols are made up of same atoms, C, H and O.

A line graph has a vertical axis labeled "Average plant mass (g)^ * and a horizontal axis labeled "Herbicide (g/plant)." What in
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The correct option is D. The average mass of plants exposed to 3 g of herbicide was 10g.

Explanation:

As the vertical axis is labelled as average plant mass, it will make the y- coordinate.

As the horizontal axis is labelled as Herbicide (g/plant), it will make the x-axis.

The coordinates for the given value are (3,10). 3 will be the value of the x- coordinate. Hence, it will show the average mass of the plant at the plotted point which will be 3 g.

10 will show the value of the y- coordinate which will be the amount of herbicide given to the plant.

Hence, Dis the correct option.

algol [13]

Answer:

Principles of Geology

Explanation:

J. Henslow gifted Darwin the first volume of Principles of Geology, written by Charles Lyell. The book explains about the old age of the earth. Accordingly, the slow rate of several geological processes suggests that the earth is very old.

Darwin read the book as the ship was crossing the Atlantic and learned about geological processes occurring over the millions of years. For example, he learned that the earth's surface was not formed by some catastrophic event.

In his book, Lyell explained the slow and gradual geological processes like erosion gave rise to the vast landscapes present on the earth's surface.

Darwin compared the time taken by geological processes to form the earth's surface and reasoned if these millions of years were enough to support the evolution of species.
