    Xylem vessels and tracheids are dead, hollow cells that form continuous tubes for water transport. Living cells in leaves lose water through transpiration from stomata, creating a suction force called transpiration pull. This pull draws water upward through xylem against gravity. Thus, dead xylem cells and living leaf cells work together to maintain continuous water movement.

  2. There is a direct relationship between the diameter of a teak tree and the number of annual rings formed. As the tree grows older, more annual rings are added and the stem diameter increases gradually. These rings are produced by lateral meristematic activity.

    There is a direct relationship between the diameter of a teak tree and the number of annual rings formed. As the tree grows older, more annual rings are added and the stem diameter increases gradually. These rings are produced by lateral meristematic activity. Therefore, counting annual rings helps estimate both the age and growth pattern of the tree.

    If stomata were absent, plants would face serious problems in gaseous exchange and transpiration. Carbon dioxide could not enter properly for photosynthesis and oxygen release would decrease. Transpiration pull responsible for upward water movement would also reduce. Plants would overheat, transport less water and minerals and fail to perform important life processes efficiently for healthy growth.

    Nervous tissue helps us sense heat, cold, pain and touch. It contains specialised cells called neurons that receive signals from sensory receptors present in the skin. These neurons transmit messages to the brain and spinal cord for interpretation. The nervous system then coordinates suitable responses, helping the body react quickly to environmental changes and maintain safety.

    The simple squamous epithelial tissue lining the alveoli of lungs allows oxygen to enter the blood. These cells are thin and flat, reducing the distance for diffusion. This structure enables rapid exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the air inside lungs and blood flowing through nearby capillaries, supporting efficient respiration and energy production in the body.
