1) explain why a daisy would not survive long in the desert. give any structures, reactions and/or gases involved in your answer. provide details

2) autotrophs are able to harness what form of energy and how do they do it. provide detail

Question 1

The daisy is basically a typical Tracheophyte, Agniosperm. Hence, it possesses vascular bundles and a proper root system, however, the following characteristics won't enable it to properly survive in the desert like other succulent Xerophytes :-

1) The daisy flower normally blooms during day time, hence the plants stomata would follow suite. This would cause transpiration to increase and dry out the plant.

2) The daisy has no adaptation to retain water in high temperatures. Loss of water would be too rapid

3) Due to its soft body compared to other highly adapted plants in the desert, it can easily be eaten up either as food or a water source by any desert herbivore or omnivore.

4) Its root system isn't extensive enough to retrieve water deep within the desert soil.  

5) Compared to, e.g, A cactus, The daisy possesses larger and numerous stomata which can not enable water retention in such a high tmeperature region.

Question 2

Autotrophs are able to harness light energy for synthesizing food materials. ,they do this by capturing sung-light through a pigment called chlorophyll which it uses to synthesize glucose  with the aid of other inorganic substances like, carbon(iv)oxide and water, this process is normally referred to as photosynthesis

for 8 am not sure maybe yes?

for 9 if it is asking if the male is more or less it would be less

hope i even just a little : )
