Is the root of sugarcane tap or fibrous?
The root system of sugarcane is fibrous, consisting of many small roots that spread out horizontally near the surface of the soil.
Why is the lining of the intestine rough?
Lining of your intestine is not smooth. Nature has adapted various methods to increase the surface area of the intestine. The surface has become grossly uneven due to this factor. The surface area of the small intestine is about 2750 square feet. That is why the surface becomes rough, although the lining is made of very soft epithelium.
How are the roots of mangroves adapted to cope with anaerobic mud?
Mangrove roots have specialized structures such as pneumatophores and lenticels that help them obtain oxygen in anaerobic mud. Pneumatophores are upright roots that come up from the ground to facilitate gas exchange, while lenticels are small pores on the roots that allow oxygen to enter and carbon dioxide to exit. Additionally, some mangrove species have root systems that can filter out salt and absorb nutrients from the surrounding mud.
How are villi like the roots of a plant how are they different?
Villi in the small intestine increase surface area for nutrient absorption, similar to how roots of a plant absorb water and nutrients from the soil. However, villi are finger-like projections lined with cells, while roots are structures that anchor the plant and absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
How are microvilli adapted?
Microvilli are small, finger-like projections found on the surface of cells in the small intestine, kidney, and other tissues. They increase the surface area of the cell membrane, allowing for more efficient absorption of nutrients and molecules. This adaptation helps in maximizing the rate of absorption of substances in the digestive tract and enhancing cellular function.
Khoisan people adapted to the Kalahari environment by?
Gathering roots and hunting small game.
Why are nonvascaulr roots so small?
because it is
Dessert plants are adapted to their climate by having?
A small leaf surface and large root system.
Why insects have small bodies?
The bugs are small because that's how they survive and adapted to their environment
How are the mucosa and sub-mucosa of the small intestine adapted for both digestion and absorption?
large surface area
How is the small intestings adapted to increase absorption of food?
The cells that line small intestines have small projections on their surface called villi. These projections collectively increase the total surface area of the small intestine. This adaptation facilitates increased absorption of nutrients
Do fibrous roots gather water from a small area?
Yes, because fibrous roots are not so deep rooted and diversified as tap roots.
How do small shrubs adapt to the tundra?
The shrub is adapted to the tundra because it does not need soil.
What kind of root tends to grow in a dense network near the surface of the earth so it can branch out and collect water?
Fibrous roots tend to grow in a dense network near the surface of the earth to efficiently collect water and nutrients. These roots have many small lateral roots that spread out widely, allowing them to access water from a larger area. This root system is common in grasses and many other herbaceous plants.
Why does a small pin sink wheras a large boat does not?
Because a pin has a small surface area and a boat has a large surface area.
How is the epithelial cell adapted for its job?
It has small hairs called cilia which trap dust and microbes and the epithelial tissue covers the whole of the surface body.
What is lecce fruit?
The lychee is a small oval or heart shaped fruit, normally 1-1.5". The lychee had Asian roots, but has been adapted to suitable climates in the US (FL and CA)
