Answer: a. dead organisms from the marine food web.

c. liberation through ATP hydrolysis in living organisms.

Upwelling is a wind driven motion of lower bottom nutrient rich and warmer water on the surface of the water body. This wind driven motion facilitates the movement of nutrients available for growth of primary producers like phytoplanktons growing on the surface of water body. The dead organisms from the marine food web get decomposed and the organic matter obtain after decomposition is a rich source of phosphorous. This phosphorous gets transferred to the upper layers of the water body by upwelling.  In aquatic organisms ATP hydrolysis occurs which is a catabolic process that uses water to split the bonds present in the ATP molecule and hence, releases energy for functions performed by them along with a release in phosphate atom. This phosphate gets mixed with the water. Therefore, PO32 come from dead organisms from the marine food web and liberation through ATP hydrolysis in living organisms that circulates due to upwelling.

What prevents ions from crossing the plasma membrane via
maks197457 [2]
Simple diffusion is the concept of a substance moving from an area of high concentration to a lower concentration without energy input. Because the plasma membrane is made of lipids which are non-polar, this membrane readily allows non-polar substances to diffuse through easily. If a substance has a charge like that of an ion, it will be difficult for the ion to cross the plasma membrane through simple diffusion. The answer should be B.

How does the sun get its energy?​
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The sun generates energy from a process called nuclear fusion. During nuclear fusion, the high pressure and temperature in the sun's core cause nuclei to separate from their electrons. Hydrogen nuclei fuse to form one helium atom.
