Synthesize Information In a multistep process, cells can combine the reactants glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2) to form the pro

ducts carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). Some cells can also perform the reverse of this process. Must one, both, or neither of the processes release energy? Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:

In one of the process, energy is built up from scratch, in the other one, energy is liberated for use by an organism or body.

The first process deals with a metabolic reaction in which energy is liberated:

         C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂  → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy

In the above process, energy is liberated when glucose combines with oxygen. The waste products are carbon dioxide and water. This process liberates heat energy which can be used to do work.

   In the reverse process:

             6CO₂ + 6H₂O   →  C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

    This process stores energy in carbon chains as chemical energy. It is this energy that is released in the first process.

Therefore, we can see that the first process liberates energy and the reverse process stores energy.

What is the most likely result of the pollution of a fresh water resource?
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Loss of biodiversity in the wetlands.

Explanation: Pollution can be defined as the emission of toxic, poisonous and harmful chemical substances which are capable of causing environmental degradation and contamination.

Nitrogen pollution enters Earth’s freshwater resources from a variety of human activities, including the use of fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture. This nitrogen pollution has a negative effect on plants and animals living in fresh water. Certain wetland plants, however, are able to purify the water and restore it to its non-polluted state.

Hence, what would most likely increase the negative effects of nitrogen pollution is a loss of biodiversity in the wetlands i.e the various species of animal and plants.
