A new life form was discovered on Mars, one based upon Silicon instead of Carbon. Explain what properties Silicon has that allow
Vesna [10]

Group IV of the Periodic Table of the Elements contains carbon (C), silicon (Si) and several heavy metals. Carbon, of course, is the building block of life as we know it. So is it possible that a planet exists in some other solar system where silicon substitutes for carbon? Several science fiction stories feature silicon-based life-forms--sentient crystals, gruesome golden grains of sand and even a creature whose spoor or scat was bricks of silica left behind. The novellas are good reading, but there are a few problems with the chemistry.

<span>
CRYSTALLINE CREATURES? Silicon can grow into a number of lifelike structures, but its chemistry makes it unlikely that it could be the basis for alien life-forms.</span>

Indeed, carbon and silicon share many characteristics. Each has a so-called valence of four--meaning that individual atoms make four bonds with other elements in forming chemical compounds. Each element bonds to oxygen. Each forms long chains, called polymers, in which it alternates with oxygen. In the simplest case, carbon yields a polymer called poly-acetal, a plastic used in synthetic fibers and equipment. Silicon yields polymeric silicones, which we use to waterproof cloth or lubricate metal and plastic parts.

What role does cellular respiration play in the water cycle? It removes H2O from the atmosphere during glycolysis. It removes H2
lianna [129]
It removes H2O from the atmosphere during glycolysis. Cellular respiration is when the plant or animal takes the nutrients it gets and converts it into energy. This example is closest to the idea of cellular respiration because it takes the water and converts it during the process of glycolysis

*In addition to the bacterial, virus, fungus, some microorganisms live under the sea*what are they?
MaRussiya [10]

A microorganism (or microbe) is any microscopic living organism or virus, that is too small to see with the unaided human eye without magnification. Microorganisms are very diverse. They can be single-celled or multicellular and include bacteria, archaea, viruses and most protozoa, as well as some fungi, algae, and animals, such as rotifers and copepods. Many macroscopic animals and plants have microscopic juvenile stages. Some microbiologists also classify biologically active entities such as viruses and viroids as microorganisms, but others consider these as non-living.
