What happen to the Head Loss of Water if the diameter of the pipe increases?
Head loss will decrease
What causes loss of water pressure?
All kinds of things can cause loss of pressure. We need real facts to figure out why- Please resubmit with more information about your water supply.
How is a front of a ship like a wedge?
The frontal wedge help reduced the water friction. Another older design involve frontal curl up with flat bottom but such design would resulted the ship skip or slip on water surface and loss control over high speed or when impact with wave.
What makes the skin resistant to abrasion and water loss?
keretin
What is HELP designed to prevent?
The loss of body heat when in the water.
What protects the surface of plant from water loss?
epidermis
Why are stomata located on the underside of the leaf?
As the upper surface is covered with a waxy cuticle which protects the plant from dehydration if the stomata were covered by a cuticle they would not be able to function.
What protects a plant from water loss?
A layer of the leaf called the cuticle cuts down on water lost by evaporation. Also, the guard cells around the stomata which can close to prevent water loss.
Why did you need to calculate leaf surface area in tabulating your results?
transpiration is the loss of water vapour from the leaves of the plant, therefore the bigger the surface area of the leaf, the more water vapour lost from the plant.
Do plants lose water through transpiration?
Transpiration is the movement of water vapor out of a plant and into the air. Water vapor is gas.
What is the function of the cuticle?
protects the leaves from excess of water or loss of water.
How is wilting in a plant a defense?
Wilting protects the leaf and reduces water loss by reducing the surface area exposed to sun and wind. Additionally some plants "wilt" as a defence mechanism, the theory behind this is that they look dead and are unappetising to animals which may eat them - example: the Sensative plant - Mimosa pudica
Protects from water loss and outside environment?
its the pennni system
What is the transpiration process?
Transpiration is the evaporation of water from the surface of the plant__mainly from leaves. Water particles evaporate from the surface of the leaves, and more water particles move up within the plant to take their place. This process continues down though the plant with particles continually moving up from the roots.The loss of water in plants to the air though the stomata of plant leaves.
How the surface area affects heat loss?
Heat loss of water: The surface area effects the the rate of heat loss because the rate of heat loss increases if the surface are is higher. How: The water is spread out into a bigger space meaning the
Do all desert plants have spikes?
SOME desert plant have spikes, which reduce the surface area of the leaves so that the loss of water is reduced.
What makes up PLANT?
Protective tissues ( form a covering on most plants that helps prevent water loss and protects the plant), Photosynthetic tissue (transforms the sun's energy into sugar), and Transport tissues (contain hollow, tube-like cells that move food and water through the plant)
