Imagine a tree is found that has a “heart” that contracts to pump water through the xylem.
a) Where would you expect the “heart” to be located on the tree? Explain why.
b) Would you expect the leaves of this “hearted” tree to differ from the leaves of regular, “heartless” trees? Explain.
Homework Answers
ANSWER :
a) For imagination if a tree is found that has heart than it should be located at the base part of tree like roots to pump out water to from soil to whole plant via xylem and its components.
b) If the heart is found in any tree then its leaves modified to have only reticulate network of veins and should also possess valves in them to prevent back flow of water toward ground.

1. The aorta is the largest artery in the body. Where the aorta leaves the heart, it has a diameter of about 3.2cm (that's a radius of 0.016m, area of 0.0008 m^2). The blood flow speed through the aorta near the heart is about 0.30 m/s. a) Calculate the flow rate in the aorta in m^3/s b) by the time the aorta reaches the abdomen the diameter is smaller, only about 2.4cm (that's a radius of 0.012m, area of 0.0004m^2)....

Why do you think some animals have a myogenic heart (self-excitable found in Vertebrates and some Mollusks like cephalopods) while others have a neurogenic heart (controlled by nerve impulses from the brain found in Annelids, and Arthropods)? Explain your reasoning. Lungfishes have a rudimentary air sac they use when their environment temporarily becomes anaerobic. How do you think their circulatory system is different from other fish? Construct a drawing to emphasize your view. In giraffes, the head could be up...

Problem 4.070 SI The figure below shows a turbine-driven pump that provides water to a mixing chamber located dz 5 m higher than the pump, where -20 kg/s. Steady-state operating data for the turbine and pump are labeled on the figure. Heat transfer from the water to its surroundings occurs at a rate of 2 kW. For the turbine, heat transfer with the surroundings and potential energy effects are negligible. Kinetic energy effects at all numbered states can be ignored....

Imagine you are an explorer who has just discovered 2 previously unknown large islands. Each island has a population of a shrub unknown elsewhere. On Island A, the shrubs have high concentrations of certain poisonous chemicals in their leaves. On Island B, the shrubs have nonpoisonous, edible leaves. Island A has less rainfall and a colder winter than Island B. Island A has a number of plants eating insects not found on Island B and a large population of muntjacs, a small tropical...

k-d tree Background One generalization of binary trees is the k-d tree, which stores k-dimensional data. Every internal node of a k-d tree indicates the dimension d and the value v in that dimension that it discriminates by. An internal node has exactly two children, containing data that is less-than-or-equal and data that is greater than v in dimension d. For example, if the node distinguishes on dimension 1, value 107, then the left child is for data with y...
