in order to continually use the same area of land for agriculture, some farmers apply fertilizers to improve the level of nitrat

es in the soil. an alternative to this intensive use of fertilizer is to plow the roots of the leguminous plants back into the soil and leave the area unplanted for a season. why would a farmer use this alternative method and what would be the benefit of turning over the soil and leaving the old pant roots?

Ploughing and turning over the soil aerates the soil so the roots of plants are able to thrive well. Ploughing the roots of leguminous plants back to the soil returns nutritents and organic matter to the soil organically rather than using synthetic fertilisers which are potentially hazardous to the environment.

Flow Chart What happens to food and energy when it enters the cell? Finish the description for each organelle. Step 1: Mitochond
torisob [31]

Explanation:

Eukaryotic cells have specialized mechanisms to transport molecules along with membrane-bound organelles like the endoplasmic reticulum that provide a higher surface area for absorption and enable more efficient transportation.

Their structural components (i.e. their makeup) determine their function (what they do). In specific cell types, collected proteins may function as a unit called an organelle. Some organelles are bound by membranes like those that make up the external structure of the cell, with varying compositions of phospholipids and proteins. Several organelles facilitate the digestion of nutrients into metabolites and energy...

  • Step 1: Mitochondria break down food and release energy; In all eukaryotic cells mitochondria are small cellular organelles bound by membranes. The higher concentrations of reactants and solutes, increases metabolic reaction efficiency; these make most of the chemical energy required for powering the biochemical reactions within the cell. This chemical energy is obtained via the breakdown of nutrients from food, and is stored within the molecule ATP. Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’ or Citric acid cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate     (through the process of glycolysis in the cytoplasm) where several metabolites used for building other compounds are produced.
  • Step 2: Lysosomes... Some organelles separate proteins and molecules that may harm the cell by parceling them into membrane-bound organelles for example, proteases bound within lysosomes can break down many structural proteins, and carbohydrates found in food, waste, and cell components
  • Step 3: Vacuoles... Vacuoles are fluid filled organelles which store concentrated amounts of solutes, and waste products. Specialized vacuoles are also used to transport components to the cell membrane for cellular export.
  • Step 4: The endoplasmic reticulum... Most proteins that function in the cytosol (such as actin) or in the nucleus (such as DNA polymerase) are synthesized by free ribosomes. Proteins that function within the endomembrane system (such as lysosomal enzymes) or those that are destined for secretion from the cell (such as insulin) are synthesized by bound ribosomes in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The rest of the ER, which does not contain ribosomes is called the smooth ER,  and may contain lipids,  enzymes, and other proteins. As a protein destined for the endomembrane system is being synthesized by a ribosome, the first amino acids in the growing polypeptide chain act as a signal sequence. That signal sequence ensures that the ribosome binds to the outer membrane of the ER and that the protein enters the ER lumen.
  • Step 5: Golgi bodies... Like a post office, the golgi complex, or golgi body  recognizes signal sequences and packages these compounds into lysosomes for delivery to their final destination. Lysosomes fuse with the plasma membrane to empty their contents into the extracellular space.

Into which chamber of the heart do the superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, and coronary sinus return deoxygenated blood? Cir
azamat

Answer:

  • Human heart is comprised of four regions, components, zones or muscular containers. As, the blood quality is regulated by the blood, by keeping the deoxygenated form of blood apart from the oxygenated form of blood inside the heart and then provide suffiecient amount of materials, solutes, and other nutrients to the different tissues and organs of the human body in a proper manner.
  • The deoxygenated form of blood is collected and brought to the right atrium by <u>the superior and inferior venacava</u>, as it provides a more safer route for the transportation of these materials in order to remove the unwanted substance from it by sending it back to the lungs through the pulmonary artery.
  • Inside the lungs the blood is cleaned up and then sent back to the heart in order to be pumped into the different portions of the heart.

How do metabolic pathways keep from reaching equilibrium?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The metabolic chemical reaction is reversible, and they too would attain equilibrium if they take place in a test tube separately. However, if a cell attains metabolic equilibrium it is considered as dead. Thus, a cell in the body is not in equilibrium.  

The spontaneous flow of substances within and outside of the cell prevents the metabolic pathways from attaining an equilibrium, and the cell persists to perform the work all through its life. This principle is demonstrated by the open hydroelectric system.

Which of the following is typically associated with a reduction in photosynthesizing plants in a water supply? (2 points)
Sphinxa [80]
A decrease in dissolved oxygen.
This is because oxygen is a byproduct of photosynthesis. If the plants are in water, some of the oxygen they produce will become dissolved in it. Without those plants, you have less dissolved oxygen.
