What is towards the location of the sun?
300
The function of the mesophyll layer of the leaf (Palisade and spongy layer in dicots)...
What is the palisade layer is where photosynthesis occurs and the spongy layer is where gas exchange occurs during photosynthesis?

What is the cuticle?
400
Where is the epidermis of the leaf found and what is it's function?
What is it is the outside layer of cells that covers the plant and both sides of the leaves? It functions to protect the underlying cells and tissues.

What does a cladogram show? Explain the difference between to organisms located next to each other vs. two organisms that are the farthest from eachother in a cladogram.
What is the evolutionary history of a species-shows evidence of their ancestry and descent based on characters-inherited features that vary among species? The more characters a species has in common the closer together they will be found on a cladogram.

What is the biggest difference between Domains Archaea and Bacteria, with Domain Eukarya?
What is Domains Archaea and Bacteria are made up of prokaryotic cells and Domain Eukarya is made up of eukaryotic cells?
500
Compare and Contrast prokaryotes with eukaryotes.
What is prokaryotes lack a nucleus and membrane bound organelles, they are less complex, smaller, and unicellular, whereas eukaryotes are larger, more complex, have a nucleus and organized membrane bound organelles and are multicellular?
500
The reason that it is important that trees have bark is...
What is without the bark a tree could die because the bark contains the phloem, which transports nutrients to the roots of the tree?
500
Compare and contrast the xylem and phloem.
What is they both help transport materials throughout plants, they are both considered vascular tissues? The xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the mesophyll. The phloem transports nutrients (food such as sugar and organic materials) all throughout the plant.
