Know how to ask. There is nothing more difficult for some people, nor for others, easier.

 Ans: B

Water evaporates from the mesophyll cells surfaces then diffuses, as vapor, through the intercellular spaces before leaving the leaf through the stomata during TRANSPIRATION. So basically the water first evaporates and then in those spaces u see in the diagram in tht Q well it stays there as water vapor. and when the stomata opens, these water vapors diffuse out through the open stomata.   :) hope you got me. :) so yeah the ans is B.

 Ans: B

Water in liq. state move by osmosis, here its evaporates from the spongy mesophyll cells. Water is in gas state (vapor) and all gases diffuse, hence diffusion

The surface waters of the ocean contain a population of microscopic plants (plankton).
Which factor would result in fewer of these plants?

A an increase in the population of microscopic animals
B greater concentration of mineral nutrients
C more light
D warmer ocean water

What's the answer and WHY?

Lol, easy.. ;D its A as microscopic animals will eat these plants.. they get reduced in numbers. :) the other three options will only benefit the plant see? :)

The activity of decomposers returns substances to the atmosphere.
Which products of decomposition enter the atmosphere?
A carbon dioxide and nitrogen
B carbon dioxide and water
C oxygen and nitrogen
D oxygen and water

The marking scheme says the answer is B how come its not A?

Nitrogen are only released into the atmosphere by bacteria, NOT decomposers.
