I know I sound like I'm just scabbing for answers. But the truth is I don't have answers to these MC questions.

So can someone post what they think the answer is so I can check if my answers are right??

thanx


Q1. Louuis Pasteur's discovery of the "germ theory of disease" refers to which of the following?
a. that all diseases are caused by micro-organisms
b. that most infectious diseases are cuased by micro-organisms
c. that a micro-organism must be present for an organism to display symptoms of a disease.

Q2. identify the correct statement about the movement of materials in the xylem.

without hvaing looked at a biology textbook since the trials i'll take a guess
i think Q1 is refering to pastuers postulates in which case if it is
the answer is C ... but if it isn't then i'd agree with jims and go B
and for Q2 the answer is B

no i don't think that movt of materials in xylem is both up and down....it is just upwards from the roots to diff parts of the plant....
