Anettt [7]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

1. Most autotrophs use a process called photosynthesis to make their food.

2. Carbon Dioxide and water are the raw material for photosynthesis.

3. This is a trick question because nitrogen is part of oxygen, so the answer is definitely oxygen.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

1. photosynthesis

2. Carbon dioxide

3. oxygen

Explanation:

Autotrophic beings are organisms capable of producing their own food (organic substances) from inorganic substances taken from the environment. The term autótrofo is of Greek origin where autos means "the own", "alone" and trophos, that feeds. The synthesis of nutrients by autotrophs occurs through photosynthesis.

When the plant is performing photosynthesis, the various carbon atoms that are part of CO2 start to be used in the formation of the organic molecular group. The rest of the molecules end up being degraded by the plant itself during the respiration of the cells. In summary, CO2 and water in the presence of light energy are the reagents of photosynthesis.

The oxygen released by photosynthesis carried out by eukaryotes and cyanobacteria comes from water, not carbon dioxide, as was previously thought. Oxygen and glucose are the products of photosynthesis.

Which of the following is an accurate description of an adult stem cell?
ELEN [110]

Answer;

C. Multipotent

Explanation;

-Multipotent cells are those cells that can develop into more than one cell type, however, they are more limited than pluripotent cells. Adult stem cells and cord blood stem cells are considered multipotent.

Totipotent cells on the other hand, are those cells that can form all the cell types in a body, together with the extraembryonic, or placental cells. Embryonic cells are the only cells that are totipotent within the first couple of cell divisions after fertilization.

Pluripotent cells are those cells that give rise to all of the cell types that make up the body; embryonic stem cells are considered pluripotent.

Describe how minerals form in diagram B
Rus_ich [418]

Answer: In diagram B, the magma here is observed to be within the crust and could not come out to the surface. This signifies that the hot, rising magma, suddenly cooled down forming a huge block of mass which is considered to be an intrusive igneous body. It can be a batholith, lacolith or a pluton. This type of body is formed due to the cooling and the consolidation of hot magma.
