Answer;
-Algae and fungi are biotic; temperature and rainfall are abiotic.
Explanation;
-Abiotic factors are the non-living parts of an environment. These include things such as sunlight, temperature, wind, water, soil and naturally occurring events such as storms, fires and volcanic eruptions.
-Biotic factors are the living parts of an environment, such as plants, animals and micro-organisms. These factors are living or once-living organisms in the ecosystem. These are obtained from the biosphere and are capable of reproduction. Examples of biotic factors are animals, birds, plants, fungi, and other similar organisms.
Answer/Explanation:
In eukaryotes, photosynthesis occurs mainly in green plants. These organisms have specialized organelles called chloroplasts that carry out photosynthesis. These contain photoreceptors that absorb photons from the sun through a pigment called chlorophyll, providing the energy to synthesise glucose from carbon dioxide and water.
In contrast, prokaryotes that carry out photosynthesis are able to do so because they have folds in the plasma membrane that permit the attachment of chlorophyll. They do not have specialized membrane-bound organelles like eukaryotes.
Biological systems do not contradict the second law of thermodynamics. Even in this case, entropy is still always increasing. Biological systems can only decrease their own entropy by using copious amounts of energy and by increasing entropy in their surrounding environment. Also, unfavorable anabolism reactions are always paired with more favorable reactions, such as the use of ATP in order to make the overall Gibb's free energy of the reaction negative.
The earth is surrounded by <em>a layer of</em> gases called the <em>atmosphere</em>. The atmosphere is very <em>important </em>to life on <em>Earth</em> and does many <em>things</em> to help protect life and help<em> life </em>to survive.
The atmosphere absorbs the <em>heat</em> from the <em>Sun </em>and keeps the heat <em>inside</em> the atmosphere helping the <em>Earth </em>to stay warm, called the <em>Greenhouse </em>Effect.
