Which of the following processes transfers carbon directly from sea organisms to sea water? Diffusion Evaporation Photosynthesis

Respiration
Biology
1 answer:
astra-53 [7]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer is diffusion.

Aquatic respiration refers to the procedure whereby an aquatic animal attains oxygen from water. Fish and other aquatic species utilize gills to consume oxygen dissolved in the water and diffuse carbon dioxide out of the bloodstream.

Diffusion is a procedure in which a substance moves from a region of high concentration to the region of low concentration until equilibrium is attained. In the case of aquatic species, blood with a low concentration of oxygen molecules moves through the gills. The concentration of the oxygen molecules in water is greater in comparison to the concentration of oxygen molecules in the gills.

As a consequence, the molecules of oxygen diffuse from water (higher concentration) to a region of lower concentration, that is blood. In the same manner, the molecules of carbon dioxide diffuse from the blood, that is, high concentration to water, that is, low concentration.

From A plastic ocean<br><br> 13. What sticks to microplastics?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Microalgae, also known as microphytes, are tiny marine plants found floating in the surface layer of the ocean. They exude sticky substances and tend to form clumps when they bump into each other. These aggregates can also stick to other particles, including microplastics.

What causes an ecosystem to move from a primary successional stage towards a relatively-stable mature ecosystem?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is "secondary succession, an ecological succession step where an area previously occupied by living beings is disrupted".

Explanation:

In ecological succession, an ecosystem changes and develops through a series of steps. The first step, is the primary successional stage where rocks or other sedimentary structures are colonized by microorganisms. The second step, where the ecosystems changes towards a relatively-stable mature stage, occurs when an area previously occupied by living beings is disrupted. This step is named secondary succession, and the most clear example of this phenomena occurs when wildfire clears oak and hickory forests.

The concentration of a biomolecule inside a rod-shaped prokaryotic cell is 0.0037 m. calculate the number of molecules inside th
Talja [164]

First, let calculate the volume of the rod shaped-bacteria:

S = length of the bacteria * surface of its side = 4.1 * (0.45 *0.45 * 3.14) = 2.6 µm3

Now, let's convert the moles into molecules (with Avogadro's law):

0.0037mol/L = 0.0037 * 6.023 *10^23 = 2.22 *10^21 molecules / L

Now let's convert The volume and the concetrnation into µm3 (molecules / µm3)

1 L = 1 dm3 = 1000 cm3 = 1000000 mm3 = 10^9 µm3

so 2.22 *10^21 molecules / L = 2.22 10^ 12 molecules / µm3

The answer is  2.22 10^ 12 molecules / µm3

Describe the importance of Karyotyping​
jonny [76]
Karyotyping can help identify chromosomal disorders by isolating, pairing, and displaying the chromosomes. Anomalies in bands and arm length can then be observed to identify any potential health/genetic issues that can arise from a malformed chromosome.
