What is the composition of earths atmosphere

Biology
1 answer:
gogolik [260]3 years ago
7 0

The earth's atmosphere consists mainly of nitrogen and oxygen with smaller proportions of other gases such as carbon dioxide. The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is maintained through a balance between processes such as photosynthesis, respiration and combustion. However this balance is being affected by human activities which are polluting the atmosphere.

The proportion of these gases in the atmosphere is as follows: nitrogen is the most abundant at 78%, oxygen is next at 21%,  while others  include carbon dioxide at 0.037% and argon at 0.9 % .

Explain in a mechanistic manner how a disruption in cell membrane can affect life.
Mashutka [201]
Eukaryotic cells have been confronted throughout their evolution with potentially lethal plasma membrane injuries, including those caused by osmotic stress, by infection from bacterial toxins and parasites, and by mechanical and ischemic stress. The wounded cell can survive if a rapid repair response is mounted that restores boundary integrity. Calcium has been identified as the key trigger to activate an effective membrane repair response that utilizes exocytosis and endocytosis to repair a membrane tear, or remove a membrane pore. We here review what is known about the cellular and molecular mechanisms of membrane repair, with particular emphasis on the relevance of repair as it relates to disease pathologies. Collective evidence reveals membrane repair employs primitive yet robust molecular machinery, such as vesicle fusion and contractile rings, processes evolutionarily honed for simplicity and success. Yet to be fully understood is whether core membrane repair machinery exists in all cells, or whether evolutionary adaptation has resulted in multiple compensatory repair pathways that specialize in different tissues and cells within our body.

use the assumption that an owl produces an average of 2.5 pellets per day. please note that a vole is ‘equivalent’ to a mouse
zlopas [31]

Assuming that an owl produces 2.5 pellets on average every day

Vole equal to a mouse, N=14

D=2.5×N

  = 2.5×14

  = 35

Y= 365×D

 = 365×35

 = 12775

<h3>What is an assumption?</h3>

A person takes it upon themselves to assume a new position. the assumption of authority is the act of claiming something or taking possession of it a false assumption is believing something to be true.

<h3>Which of these four assumptions are they?</h3>

Ontological, epistemological, axiological, and methodological assumptions make up their four main presuppositions.

<h3>What is the Assumption's purpose?</h3>

You can check if you can appropriately infer conclusions from the findings of your study by conducting assumption testing on it. Assumptions can be thought of as the conditions you must meet in order to carry out your analysis.

What scale would you use to measure an earthquake's damage
denpristay [2]

Answer:

he Richter scale measures the largest wiggle (amplitude) on the recording, but other magnitude scales measure different parts of the earthquake. The USGS currently reports earthquake magnitudes using the Moment Magnitude scale, though many other magnitudes are calculated for research and comparison purposes.
