Can someone please explain 17? Why wouldn't it be C? The water potential of the cell will be more negative.

got two very imp qs : tissue fluid doesnt contain proteins right? i saw in a Qs answer it did. i dont have the qs though. and how to calculate net primary productivity i dont know how please help quickly

I was confused in that too. The answer does make sense, however. Cell 1 could be the phloem tubes. In which the water potential IS greater. But A also makes sense. I suck at these water potential questions.

cell 3 is xylem and cell 1 is phloem, since xylem transports water it definitely has a less negative water potential than phloem

QRS represents ventricular systole, so P and T must be ventricular diastole

how did u know QRS is ventricular systole?
and what exactly does recovery of ventricle walls mean?

What is pressure potential??

Ashique All the other 3 options are wrong...cuz what they mentioned...opposite is what happens...from the info they gvae...conc. in cells is 0.35 and outside is 0.1 ....so water potential is higher outside than inside...
hence water will move into the cells

look they have said that 1 unit on the stage micrometer is 0.1 mm
and the diameter if u see is 2.5 mm
u use the formula π r ^2
so radius is 1.25mm
which in micrometers would be 125 micrometers
hence π x 125 x 125

qs 40 help

They asked about the net productivity passing on to the herbivores a.k.a to the primary consumers. From the diagram we can see that only 0.75% of the energy is available to the primary consumer. How will you express this as a percentage of energy that went to the primary consumer? 0.75/1.75, hence answer is C.

qs 40 help

in this mcq u see that the energy that the the primary consumers use after losses is 0.75% (herbivores) whereas the total energy transfered by the producers is 1.75% so net productivity is the ratio b/w these two.

how is the diameter 2.5 mm ?

Thank you, ^__^
I have another question in m/j 2008 question number "27"...why not high? Also what is the difference between solute potential and solute concentration..^_^"

can anyone plz help, hw is the calculatoin done ?

Each division in the stage micrometer is 0.1 mm. So from the diagram we can see that 40 division in the eye piece graticule is equal to 1 division in the stage micrometer. So 1 division in the eye piece graticule= 0.1/40= 0.0025mm. Each small division in the eyepiece graticule is 0.0025 mm.
Then find the diameter of the field- there are 100 division in the eye piece graticule, so 0.0025*100=0.25 mm= 250 micrometer.
They asked for the area, and we know the formula to calculate the area of a circle is pi*r^2 (pi r square or pi*r*r)
The find the radius of the field which is 250/2= 125
so pi*125*125= 4*10^4
Hence answer is C

Because it's a fact.
P is atrial systole.
QRS is ventricular systole.
T is the start of ventricular diastole.
Learn these points about ECG.

thanks alot i got it !

...i never get this thing...these graphs...very confusing :/
