K_M:
can someone please give me the answer to the following questions:

1. describe the passage of water from blood in the aorta to its excretion via the urethra

2. outline a treatment of sewage which would produce re-usable water

3.suggest how the build up of sticky mucus would affect a sufferer of cystic fibrosis

4. suggest how a high salt intake can be dangerous to a person's health

thankyou in advance!

Adaptations of plants:
POND: eg: canadian pondweed
- stomata present on upper surface only to absorb carbon dioxide and give out oxygen easily and transpiration is not a problem as water is in abundance.
- The upper epidermis contains chlorophyll as absorbing light energy through the water is difficult therefore it increases photosynthesis
- leaves are thing and ribbon-like in order not to get ruptured by water currents
- the stem contains air spaces to provide buoyancy and to allow diffusion of gases throughout the plant. This provide energy to absorb nutrients by active uptake as they respire aerobically
- stems are flexible and ribbon-like
- roots are virtually absent as water is in abundance hence they do not need to absorb water from the soil.

DESERT: eg: cactus
- leaves are reduced to spines to protect the plant from being eaten and to reduce water loss and in order not to get ruptured by strong desert winds
- stem contains chlorophyll to carry out photosynthesis, it is covered in cutilce to prevent water loss
- stem stores water and nutrients
- stem is short and juicy in order not to get ruptured by strong desert winds
- roots are long to provide anchorage and to reach the water table deep underground
