Please help me with my biology ten points?

11. Most anthophyte leaves are thin with a large surface area. This structure enhances the plant's ability to ____. (1 point)

take in water

balance and stay upright

store food

photosynthesize

12. A plant's response to an external stimulus that comes from a particular direction is called ____. (1 point)

tropism

nastic response

flowering

cell division

13. The epidermal structures that control the exchange of gases are called ____. (1 point)

mesophyll

trichomes

root hairs

stomata



15. What is the most likely seed dispersal mechanism for a seed with winglike structures? (1 point)

eaten by animals

catch in animal fur

wind

water

16. The fertilization of the central nucleus in a flowering plant produces a ____. (1 point)

triploid nucleus

zygote

diploid nucleus

haploid egg

17. What type of symmetry does a penny have? (1 point)

bilateral symmetry

radial symmetry

no symmetry

biaxial symmetry



42. Organ transplant patients are given a drug called cyclosporine to suppress the body's defenses against the transplanted organ. Why is this necessary? (3 points)





43. How does the buildup of lactic acid in muscle cells result in more oxygen being delivered to your cells? (4 points)





44. In what way does an instinctive behavior pattern differ from a reflex? (3 points)





45. How is a bird's body adapted for flight? Describe 3 adaptations. (3 points)





46. How does the three-chambered heart equip amphibians for life on land? (3 points)





47. How does living in colonies contribute to the survival of bees? (3 points)





Alvin, a submersible vehicle used by oceanographers to study the ocean floor, has also proved invaluable in studying populations of deep-sea mollusks and segmented tube worms. The invertebrates in question live where hot seawater circulates through cracks in the ocean floor called deep-sea vents.

Suppose that you are an invertebrate biologist studying these animals. Your studies show that clams that live near the vents may grow as much as 3.8 cm per year—far more rapidly than other deep-water clams.

48. Suppose your data show that the temperature is the same in samples taken close to the vents and some distance away from the vents. However, the size of the clams is smaller the farther they are from the vents. What would this indicate? (3 points)









Figure 19–1

49. You have a vial of Carchesium polypinum, a species of ciliates found in wastewater. You have just read that these protozoans produce a kind of mucus, which they secrete into the water. You wish to develop a laboratory model of wastewater treatment. As your model, you drop some India ink into a beaker of tap water and add a vial of ciliates. What effect might the mucus produced by the Carchesium have on the India ink? How might you apply your results to the effect of mucus on waste matter in water? You can refer to Figure 19–1. (3 points)





50. For a period of time, bacteria were classified as plants. Why do you think bacteria were classified this way? Give at least two reasons why bacteria should not be classified as plants. (3 points)
