Q: Q: What type of roots enable a plant to grow on another plant? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Epiphytic roots enable a plant to grow on another plant. For example, the epiphytic roots of orchids develop a spongy tissue to absorb moisture. The banyan tree (Ficus sp. ) begins as an epiphyte, germinating in the branches of a host tree; aerial roots develop from the branches and eventually reach the ground, providing additional support (Figure 30.20). In screwpine (Pandanus sp. ), a palm-like tree that grows in sandy tropical soils, aboveground prop roots develop from the nodes to provide additional support. Choices: - Sickness - endemic - mites - epiphytic A:
A: epiphytic

Q: Q: During what do homologous chromosomes separate and go to different daughter cells? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Overview of Meiosis. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes separate and go to different daughter cells. This diagram shows just the nuclei of the cells. Notice the exchange of genetic material that occurs prior to the first cell division. Choices: - birth - mitosis - electrolysis - meiosis A:
A: meiosis

Q: Q: What are some of the giant fairy rings produced by? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Choices: - fronds - algae - sporangia - mycelia A:
A: mycelia

Q: Q: What sorts of collisions do not result in an overall loss of kinetic energy? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Collisions between gas particles and between particles and the container walls are elastic collisions . An elastic collision is one in which there is no overall loss of kinetic energy. Kinetic energy may be transferred from one particle to another during an elastic collision, but there is no change in the total energy of the colliding particles. Choices: - soft - static - powerful - elastic A:
A: elastic
