In the early days of life on Earth, plants were exposed to extremely high doses of ultraviolet radiation, Constant UV exposure resulted in some land plants developing narrow leaves with thick, waxy cuticles. Over many, many generations, these narrow
leaves evolved into needles.
Relate the development of plant needles to the occurrence of mutations,
A)
Plant needles adaptations for survival that some plants developed due to
high temperatures on Earth
B)
Plant needles are the result of leaf cell mutations that made some leaves
thick and waxy, while other leaves did not change,
Plant needles are the result of neutral mutations to leaf tissue that would
neither help nor harm the plants living in such a harsh environment.
D)
Plant needles were a beneficial mutation that increased survival of certain
plants that reproduced and passed the mutated gene to offspring,

When in solution, a molecule that moves slowly across an artificial membrane moves rapidly across a plasma membrane. this molecule rapidly enters the cell regardless of whether its concentration is higher inside or outside the cell. using this information, which transport mechanism is most likely to be responsible for the movement of the molecule across a plasma membrane? view available hint(s)when in solution, a molecule that moves slowly across an artificial membrane moves rapidly across a plasma membrane. this molecule rapidly enters the cell regardless of whether its concentration is higher inside or outside the cell. using this information, which transport mechanism is most likely to be responsible for the movement of the molecule across a plasma membrane? active transportexocytosis
