How do cohesion and adhesion work together?

First, the adhesion makes the molecules of water stick to the walls of the plants roots and leaves. Then the cohesion joins the molecules of water together to help them move up the walls of the plants roots and leaves.


In a cell where is the site of photosynthesis?

photosynthesis happens insidethe orgenelle, Chloroplast. the main ingredetents for photosynthesis are H20(water) CO2 (carbon dioxide) and sunlight


Why does potting soil leave stains?

Potting soil leaves stains underneath because it comes from the peat in the soil mix. Using a saucer underneath the potted plant will help from staining.


What 3 materials are used to make paint?

One might say resin, filler, solvent are the base 3, but you need more. So, Resin to form the paint film (this is the starting point for any formulation) Fillers for opacity, durability (also impact chem resistance, water resistance) Solvent to maintain liquid state until applied (water or traditional "solvent") But add in: dispersant to help get the fillers into the resin thickeners to help brushing/rolling characteristics, sag control pigments for colour additives for UV stability, in-can stability, film forming, etc as required


How can you tell if something is 24k gold?

One can tell if something is 24k gold by poking it with a sharp object. Gold is a soft metal, and the higher the karat the softer the metal, therefore if it makes a dent or leaves a mark, then the gold is 24k. Also, 24k gold is much more yellow, so, the color can help to identify 24k gold. And finally, bringing it to a jeweler to get it appraised will help to determine if it is 24k gold.

How do green leaves make food?

they depend on other plants Non-green leaves have other photosynthetic pigments like carotene and xanthophyll in their plastids which help in the process of photosynthesis.

How do the parts of the plant help it make food?

the roots suck up nutrients the leaves contain chloroplasts which makes the plant photosynthesize (take energy from light and turn it into food).


What is another word for photosinthesize?

Another word for photosynthesize is "photoautotrophy." Photoautotrophy is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (a form of sugar) and oxygen, with the help of chlorophyll and other pigments.


If humans were photoautotrophs how might human anatomy be different?

We would have more root like "legs". We would also have branches and leaves to help photosynthesize. There would be no need for stomachs and most of our organs.


How do the flowes leaves and stems help plants meet their basic needs?

The flowers are the sexual organs. A basic need is to reproduce. The leaves make the food. The stems carry the food and water to every part of the plant that needs it much like our veins and arteries.


How do photosynthesis help human?

In the near future, we may create chloroplasts in human cells, which can help to photosynthesize.

What pigments in your skin help protect you?

melanin.


What structures are associated with plant cell?

1. Chloroplasts. Animal cells do not have these. They help the plant to photosynthesize. (Chloroplasts can also be found in some algae, which are protists.) Chlorophyll inside the chloroplasts contains pigments which reflect light in the green spectrum, giving leaves/grass etc. their green color. 2. A cell wall. This is another thing animal cells don't have. The cell wall is a thicker layer enclosing the cell membrane. They allow the plant cell to absorb a lot of water without bursting.


What are melanin and keratin?

Melanin and carotene are skin pigments that help block damaging rays from the sun. The more of these pigments in the skin the greater the protection.
