Non-functional xylem in the center of a tree trunk is

A. Summerwood

B. Sapwood

C. Heartwood

D. springwood

C. Heartwood

Explanation:

Xylem consists of both sapwood and heartwood. Sapwood is comrpsied of functioning cells whereas heartwood is made up of dead cells. The heartwood is commonly found in old trees. It stores sugar and oils. This is why its color is darker than the sapwood. It acts as a supporting structure for the old trees.

many phylogenetic trees have a single lineage at the base representing a common ancestor. a lineage that evolved early from the root and remains unbranched is called basal taxon. when two lineages stem from the same branch point, they are called sister taxa.

can i get the brainliest pls

explanation:

hey, i believe your answer would be d. sugar ribose and the base uracil. i believe this is the answer, because rna consists of sugar ribose, adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.

your first option is incorrect, because that's dna. where it consists of sugar deoxyribose, adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine.

your second option is also incorrect, this is because sugar deoxyribose is in dna, and uracil is in rna. these two do not make sense together.

your third option being incorrect, because sugar ribose is in rna, but not the base of thymine. rna consists of uracil, not thymine.

lastly your fourth option being correct! this answer is correct, because both sugar ribose, and the base uracil are in rna! ~

answer is d. sugar ribose and the base uracil.
