The graph shows, in a period of time between 1978 and 2010. Therefore, it's related to the last 50 years, not the last 100 years, meaning that alternative D is wrong. The amount of sea ice shown in the graph is shown in the scale of million square miles. So, as the graph shows an initial value around 3.2 (3 millions and 2 hundred miles) and it ends up in a value around 2.2 (2 millions and 2 hundred miles), still the real values are around 2.8 (2 million and 8 hundred thousands initially) and 2.0 (2 millions at the end), having a lower value of 1.8 (1 million and 8 hundred thousand); So, in both scenarios, arctic sea ice has shrunk by 1,000,000 (1.0) square miles, being under 2,000,000, not over. Therefore, the highest number to be inside this amount is 2,000, so the correct answer is A: Arctic sea ice has shrunk by over 2,000 square miles in the last 50 years.

Why is having a large surface area<br> important for a cell?
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

One beneficial result of a cell having a larger surface area is its ability to cover more area increasing the likely hood of nutrients coming in contact with the cell membrane. Which in turn will increase the rate at which nutrients diffuse through the cell membrane.

What is the best conclusion? The rate of cellular respiration in germinating peas is exactly one thousand times the rate of ATP
Nady [450]

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:

During germination, peas sprout and grow. The data table shows the carbon dioxide produced during the germination period of peas under different conditions. Condition Rate of carbon dioxide produced (mL/min) Germinating peas, 10ºC 0.01 Germinating peas, 20ºC 0.02 What is the best conclusion? The rate of cellular respiration in germinating peas is exactly one thousand times the rate of ATP production. Germinating peas at 10ºC create carbon dioxide at a rate of 0.01 mL/min during ATP production. Germinating peas at 20ºC have a higher rate of cellular respiration than germinating peas at 10ºC. The rate of cellular respiration cannot be measured without knowing the rate of ATP production.

Answer:

The correct statement is that at 20 degree C, the germinating peas exhibits a higher rate of cellular respiration in comparison to the germinating peas at 10 degree C.

Explanation:

The process of respiration results in the production of carbon dioxide, respiration refers to a chemical reaction that generates water, carbon dioxide, and energy by undergoing oxidation of the glucose molecules. This phenomenon plays an essential role in the life of the organisms for obtaining energy from the food they consume to perform daily activities.  

From the question, it is evident that the peas, which were germinating at 20 degrees C exhibit a higher rate of cellular respiration as they are generating 0.02 milliliters of carbon dioxide in a minute, while on the other hand, the germinating peas at 10 degrees C are giving rise to 0.01 milliliters of carbon dioxide in a minute.
