The cuticle is used fora. water conservation.
b. protection from predators.
c. photosynthesis.
d. gas exchange.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:Water conservation

Explanation:

In some of the higher plants there is a presence   of hard cutaneous part on the leaves. Cuticle is a water-impervious layer which covers the epidermal cells of the leaves.

It aids in limiting the water loss by the leaves. It is the part of plants that faces the external environment by hindering the water loss.

This part is made up of waxy coating, which is water repellent known as suberin.

It helps in the water conservation as it limits the excess loss of water from leaves.

Answer 2
Answer: A, the cuticle is used for water conservation.

16) __________ memory holds information for 15 to 25 seconds and stores it according to its meaning rather than as mere stimulation.a. Sensory
b. Processing
c. Short-term
d. Long-term

Answers

Short-term memory holds information for 15 to 25 seconds and stores it according to its meaning rather than just as mere stimulation. However, it is not really true that short-term memory can be retained only for this short amount of time. It has been shown in different studies that it can be held even longer.

Each degree on the Kelvin scale equals how many degrees on the Celsius scale?-1
-10
-no relationship (different scale)
-2.12

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is 1

Explanation-

The lower fixed point and upper fixed point of the kelvin scale is 273 K and 373 K respectively. It is divided into 100 equal parts, each part is called 1 Kelvin.

Whereas, the lower fixed point and upper fixed point of the celsius scale is 0 degree and 100 degree respectively. It is also divided into 100 equal parts, each part is called 1 degree.

Hence, the change in 1 degree on celsius scale is equal to 1 degree on the kelvin scale.

A 1 degree change in Kelvin means 1 degree change in Celsius. So the first answer is the correct one. The difference is that the Kelvin scale starts at the absolute zero temperature, therefore it can't have negative values.
