Answer:

1. break down of food into energy => oxygen

2. absorb x-rays in bones  => calcium

3. cell membrane function  => sodium

4. all organic compounds  => carbon

Explanation:

Oxygen in an element which is required during cellular respiration which in turn generates energy in the form of ATP. Aerobic respiration is not possible in the absence of oxygen.

Calcium is an element which is abundantly present in bones and has great tendency to absorb x rays. It is because of calcium that our bones appear white when they are exposed to x rays.

Sodium ion is present in cells and play a very important role in maintaining cell membrane potential with the help of sodium potassium pump.

Carbon is an important element because it is an important constituent of all organic compounds. All organic compounds are chemically hydrocarbons i.e. compounds having short or long chains of carbon and hydrogen.

disa [49]

The synthesis of proteins takes two steps: transcription and translation. Transcription takes the information encoded in DNA and encodes it into mRNA, which heads out of the cell's nucleus and into the cytoplasm. During translation, the mRNA works with a ribosome and tRNA to synthesize proteins.

If you move a plant further and further away from a light source the level of O2 production would _______________ because the pr
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

1. Decrease

2. Photosynthesis

3. Cellular respiration

Explanation:

Photosynthesis in a plant requires light source to occur. The photosynthetic process gives oxygen gas (O2) as a waste product. This means that the production of oxygen is dependent on the intensity of light.

On the other hand, cellular respiration uses up or consumes oxygen in a plant. Hence, an increase in respiration reduces oxygen level if photosynthesis does not produce.

According to this question, If you move a plant further and further away from a light source, the level of O2 production would DECREASE because the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS slows and the process of CELLULAR RESPIRATION speeds up.
