Which of the following correctly compares the types of root structures. A. tap roots have many small roots while fibrous roots have a primary root and auxiliary roots
B. Tap roots have a root cap and undergo primary growth, fibrous roots lack a root cap and undergo
secondary growth
C. monocots have fibrous roots, dicots have tap roots
D. monocots have tap roots, dicots have fibrous roots

C

Explanation:

Dicots have a tap root system, while monocots have a fibrous root system. A tap root system has a main root that grows down vertically, and from which many smaller lateral roots arise.

the answer is :

it provides an alternative energy pathway for the reaction to proceed.

a catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed during the course of the reaction.

catalysts increase the rate of reaction without being used up. they do this by lowering the activation energy needed. with a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases. different reactions need different catalysts.

a catalyst works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.
