Why is it important that the root of endodermis permits only one way passage of materials?

Rate This Answer0 CommentsThe root endodermis permits only a one way passage of materials because the root doesn't want certain things entering. It's called selective permeability.


Why would water in wells geysers and hot springs contain dissolved material?

Water is one of the best solvents we have. It is also chemically reactive. When moving it is powerful hydraulic force. To top this off hot water is even mote chemically active.This results in water containing hydrogen sulphide, sulphate and carbon dioxide reacting with rocks it encounters in its passage through rock strata reacting rocks like limestone to dissolve them. The weakened rocks break up under the hydraulic pressure to leave th apparent rock. These bits might include either the reactive rock or included bits of non-reactive rock. Finally when the rock emerges to the cooler layers near the Earth's surface it cools. The cooling reduces the amount of dissolved material it can contain ant the materials precipitate out as solids containing carbonates, sulphates, and other materials as well as a dissolved burden in equilibrium with the new temperature.


What can be expected to occur to the atmospheric pressure prior to the passage of a cold front and after the cold front passes?

The pressure is lowest as the front passes. In fact, that is how you can identify a cold front on a map with no other information.

How does pressure affect the behavior of the rock materials in the inner core?

Though the temperature of the inner core is believed to be about 5 000 deg C, the immense pressure ensures that this part of earth is a solid. As inferred by the passage of seismic waves. The heating is caused by the decay of radioactive materials.
