enyata [2506]

Answer and Explanation:

Such lights can indeed encourage the growth and reproduction of plants.

This occurs because growth, chlorophyll synthesis, flowering, and fruiting are dependent on a specific range of light wavelengths measuring 640-720 nm. While plants naturally absorb this range from sunlight, cultivation lamps that emit this spectrum, corresponding to the yellow/red light, can be used when natural sunlight is insufficient.

After being absorbed, ______ soluble nutrients enter the lymphatic circulation whereas ______ soluble nutrients enter the portal

vlada-n [2515]

FAT soluble nutrients enter the lymphatic system after absorption, while WATER soluble nutrients enter the portal circulation. Once absorption takes place in the body, the large fat-soluble nutrients are initially absorbed into the lymphatic system before being transported into the bloodstream, whereas water-soluble nutrients travel through the hepatic portal veins to reach the liver.
