Homologous structures are those that: serve the same function in different organisms share an evolutionary and developmental history in different organisms occur on homologous chromosomes all of these

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: The correct answer is -

share an evolutionary and developmental history in different organisms.

Homologous structures can be described as structures in different organisms/species that share common ancestor or having same evolutionary lineage but do not necessarily perform similar functions.

For example - Forelimbs of bat and humans are considered as homologous structures but both perform different function.

Thus, second option is the right answer.

Answer 2

Answer: share an evolutionary and developmental history in different organisms

an example would be the wing of a bat and a human arm.

Water is drawn upward from the roots through plant tissue to the leaves by

Answers

water exaporates frm the leaves and other parts of the plant above the ground. The evaporation of water from the plant is called ''transpiration''. It occurs mainl through the stomata. However, as quickly as water is lost from the leaves, more water enters the roots and flows up the stem. The water flows up the plant in narrow pipes, rather like capillary tubes. These tubes make up the xylem. The walls of the tubes are made of lignin, which is hard and waterproof. In trees and shurbs the xylem tubes are one of the main components of wood. They do not contain living material and are therefore dead.` Water rises up the stem mainly by being ''pulled'' from above. The ''pull'' is created by the evaporation if water from the leaves. If you stop this by, for example, cutting iff the leaves or blocking the stomata, the flow of water up the stem slows down or stops. The drier the atmosphere, the greater is the rate of transpiration. In very dry wather, water may evaporate from the leaves faster than it is replaced from the soil. The plant then suffers from water shortage. Normally a plant's cells are full of water, and all the cells are pressing against each other within the epidermial covering. This helps to support the plant amd holds the leaves out flat. If a plant runs short of water, the cells lose water and go flabby. The plant then droops. This is called wilting. Plants living in dry places have all sorts of adaptations for not
