Correct Answer: B. abnormal

Explanation

(a) Paul began his letter to Philemon by first thanking God for the love which he learnt Philemon had in serving the Lord and toward the church. As Philemon's benefactor, Paul claimed that he had a right to command him to do his bidding but he would, however, not use compulsion.Rather, he chose to use persuasion in asking Philemon to accept back his former slave, Onesimus who had wronged him but had now become Paul's son in Christ. Again, Onesimus had previously made himself useless to Philemon, but now as a Christian, he could become useful to both Philemon and Paul. He was, therefore, sending Onesimus back with love-though he would have wished to retain him in his service in Rome. He would however not do so without first getting Philemon's consent in order to remove any shade of command. Paul then observed that Onesimus had departed from his master (for a short while) so that at his return, he might have him for ever, but this time, no longer as a slave, but more importantly, as a Christian brother. He, therefore, appealed to Philemon, if he still regarded him as a partner in Christ, to receive Onesimus back as he would receive Paul himself. If Onesimus owed him anything, he should charge same to his own (Paul's) account with assurance that he would pay it back on his next visit. In the mean time, he should prepare a guest room for him and pray to God to make his visit a reality.

Correct Answer: A) thick barks, succulent stems and sunken stomata

Explanation

Plants that live in the desert environment face unique challenges such as high temperatures, low water availability, and high salinity. These conditions have led to the development of adaptive features that help them survive. One of these adaptive features is having thick barks, succulent stems, and sunken stomata, which is the correct answer to the question. Thick barks provide insulation for the plant against the high temperatures, while succulent stems store water for the plant during prolonged periods of drought. Sunken stomata help to reduce water loss by keeping the stomata below the surface of the leaf, where it is cooler and less windy. Option B on the other hand, thin barks, succulent stems, and sunken stomata, is incorrect because plants with thin barks would not be able to withstand the harsh desert environment as it will not provide enough insulation for the plant. Option C, thin barks, air floats on stems, and sunken stomata, is also incorrect because while air floats on stems can help with buoyancy, it does not help with the plant's survival in the desert environment. Option D, air spaces on tissues, adventitious roots, and thin barks, is incorrect because air spaces on tissues do not provide any benefits to the plant in the desert environment, and adventitious roots are not an adaptive feature of plants in the desert environment. In summary, the adaptive features of plants in the desert environment include thick barks, succulent stems, and sunken stomata to help them survive in the harsh conditions of the desert.
