<span>The correct answer is b. The open ocean. The definition of an island ecosystem does not have anything to do with water, but simply refers to an ecosystem that exists as a microcosm within a far larger, separate ecosystem. The ocean has lots of separate island ecosystems within it, but it itself cannot be referred to as one.</span>

What is the small unit of matter that has characteristics properties of this element?
Vikentia [17]

The smallest unit of matter that has the characteristic properties of it’s element is called an “atom”.

Individual atoms are called “elements” for that reason.

There are smaller divisions of matter, however those no longer have the characteristics of the element that they may be a part of. A hydrogen electron is indistinguishable from an argon electron, or any other.

Which of the following statements about plankton or nekton is NOT correct?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

C. All plankton are closely related to plants.

Explanation:

Plankton are organisms found in water that exist in a drifting state. They are too small or weak to swim on their own, so they let the current or tide carry them. They are usually microscopic but include larger species as well, such as some crustaceans and jellyfish.

Phytoplankton are autothrophic plankton. This means that they produce their own food. They are primary producers and closely related to plants.

Zooplankton are heterotrophic plankton, which means that they feed on other organisms. They are animals and aren't closely related to plants.

Nekton are organisms found in water that swim actively.

Based on this information, we can conclude that statement C is the only incorrect statement.

Damm [24]

Answer:

This will lead to an  decreases  in the ATPs synthesis. This is because low pH , high acidity favours ATP synthesis, because it increases the  proton concentration for electrochemical gradients needed for energy that  ATPase enzymes makes used of   synthesis  of ATPs.

Therefore a rise in the pH(low acidity) lowers protons levels, and therefore reduced electrochemical gradients , with a drop in energy for ATPs synthesis.
