Biology

Alchen [17]4 years ago
6 0
The difference is mainly in the habitat they are adapted for. Sea turtles are usually completely aquatic(except to lay eggs) and they are omnivores. Tortoises are usually land-dwelling and are mostly herbivores. Terrapins are semi-aquatic. They live in swamps and near brackish waters. Half their time is on land and half of the time they are in water.

Which option is a balanced equation for photosynthesis? A. CO2 + H2O > C6H12O6 + O2 B. 6C6H12O6 + 6O2 > 6CO2 + H2O C. C6H1
Karolina [17]

The answer is; D

A balanced equation is one that observes the law of thermodynamics on the conservation of matter and energy. Matter or energy cannot be created or destroyed but can only be transformed.

In this equation, therefore, the number of elements on the right side of the equation should match those of the left side. Of the choice equations, this is a balanced one; 6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 and one that reflects the process of photosynthesis.
