Guttation is the loss of water in liquid form as a dilute solution from uninjured leaf tips. The uninjured leaf tips have hydathodes or water stomata. Under conditions of low transpiration dilute solution of minerals oozes out through them under the influence of increased root pressure.
So, the correct answer is 'Positive root pressure'

Why the transport of organic food through phloem is bidirectional?
  1. Roots serve as source while leaves are the sink region
  2. Source and sink region are irreversible
  3. The relationship between the two region (source and sink) is variable and is dependent on season and plant needs
  4. Translocation of organic solute is regulated by energy

44-Year-Old Male with Skull Fracture William Hancock, 44, fell from the scaffolding at a construction site. When emergency personnel arrived, they found him unconscious but with stable vital signs. As paramedics placed him on a backboard to stabilize his head, neck, and back, they noted watery blood leaking from his right ear. In the hospital, Mr. Hancock regained consciousness and was treated for deep lacerations on his scalp and face. Head CT scans revealed both longitudinal and transverse fractures of the right petrous temporal and sphenoid bones that extended through the foramen rotundum and foramen ovale. The following observations were recorded on Mr. Hancock’s chart on admission: •Complete loss of hearing in the right ear. •Paresthesia (sensation of “pins and needles’) at the right corner of the mouth, extending to the lower lip and chin. •Numbness of the right upper lip, lower eyelid, and cheek. •Right eye turned slightly inward when looking straight ahead. Diplopia (double vision), particularly when looking to the right. 2. Each of the four observations on Mr. Hancock’s chart indicates damage to a cranial nerve. Identify each cranial nerve involved. If applicable, identify which specific branch of that nerve is involved.

Text: Energy Product Enzyme Reaction process This above image shows the energy diagram for chemical reaction in the absence of an enzyme: 1- Which double-headed arrow in this image represents the activation energy? 2- The size of which double-headed arrow in the image (A or B) is changed when an enzyme catalyzes the reaction? Explain the reason for your answer to receive credit. 3- In an experiment, the enzyme that normally catalyzes the reaction is first heated to 100 degrees Celsius then added to the reaction. The size of which double-headed arrow in the image (A or B) is changed when the preheated enzyme is added to the reaction? Explain the reason for your answer to receive credit. Catalyzing this reaction has an allosteric site: What is the mechanism by which an enzyme's allosteric site changes the activity of an enzyme? Your friend tells you that, using an enzyme, one can change an exergonic reaction into an endergonic reaction. Is your friend correct? Explain the reason for your answer to receive credit.
