RideAnS [48]

Answer:

The correct answer is - organ level organization.

Explanation:

The heart is made up of various types of tissues that include muscle tissue, nerve tissue, and blood tissue. All these types of tissues are organized to form the organ level organization which makes the heart is an organ.

Tissues are made up of cells and organs are made up of tissues and various organs combine together to do a specific function, this is an example of an organ system.

Thus, the correct answer is - organ level organization.

The energy required to run the Calvin cycle reactions of photosynthesis comes from which two substances produced during the ligh
Lelu [443]

Answer:

a. ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

Light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis include splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and release of electrons. The electrons move from the reaction center of the PS-II via electron carriers to the PS-I. From the reaction center of PS-I, the electrons finally reach NADP reductase and reduce NADP into NADPH.

During this electron transfer via electron carriers, a proton concentration gradient is generated across the thylakoid membrane. The energy of this gradient is used to drive ATP synthesis. ATP and NADPH formed during the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis are then used during the reactions of the Calvin cycle.

Before exploring energy balance and its effect on weight, you must first be able to use the vocabulary effectively.
valkas [14]

Answer:

1. When the number of calories a person consumes is equal to the number of calories he or she burns in a day, that person's body is in Energy Balance.

2. Someone who is in Positive Energy Balance eats more calories in a day than he or she bums.

3. Negative Energy Balance occurs when the number of calories a person bums in a day is greater than the amount he or she consumes.

4. Weight management involves applying strategies that allow someone to keep his or her body weight within a healthy.

5. The Basal metabolic rate is the amount of energy uses in order to perform its basic physiological functions.

6. The Thermic effect of food refers to the number of calories burned in order to digest absorb, metabolze, and store food.

7. The Lean body mass refers to his or her total body - fat mass.

Explanation:

This group of statements are related to body weight, the balance between the energy we consume through food and all the energy we burn through excercise and different activities, such as only mantaining our body temperature and normal processes.

If you were an electron, and your home town was your nucleus, what would you need to do in relation to your home town to emit li
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Option B, Move closer to your home town

Explanation:

The options for the given question are as follows -

A) Knock down your previous house and build a bigger one.

B) Move closer to your home town.

C) Move further away from your home town.

D) Stay where you are but speed up your daily life

Solution -

Electrons carry negative charge while nucleus carries positive charge due to the presence of positively charged proton ions and neutral ions (which has no charge). All the electrons are attracted towards the nucleus due to its positive charge. The orbit on which an electron revolves around a nucleus has higher energy level as compared to the energy levels located in between the space of electron and nucleus.  

While moving from a high energy orbital to a low energy level orbital, an electron releases some energy.  Hence, in order to move closer to home, electron needs to push itself toward the nucleus by releasing energy

Hence, the given option is B
