Photosynthesis is the chemical process used in plants to convert energy in the form of sunlight into chemical energy in the form of sugar or other carbohydrates.

<span><span>General equation:<span><span>carbon dioxide + electron donor + light energy ==> carbohydrate + oxidized electron donor + water</span><span>CO2 + 2H2A + photons ==> [CH2O] + 2A + H2O

</span></span></span><span>Net equation: Because glucose, a six carbon sugar, is often an intermediate product of photosynthesis, the net equation is frequently written as:</span></span>carbon dioxide + water + light energy ==> glucose + oxygen + water<span>6CO2 + 12H2O + Light Energy ==> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O</span><span>Balanced equation: The net equation above can be simplified as:<span><span>6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy </span>==><span> C6H12O6 + 6O<span>2</span></span></span></span>

Domestic cattle often have interactions with wild animals. In South America,
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Bats are the only mammals that can fly, but vampire bats have an even more interesting distinction—they are the only mammals that feed entirely on blood.

Nocturnal Behavior

These notorious bats sleep during the day in total darkness, suspended upside down from the roofs of caves. They typically gather in colonies of about 100 animals, but sometimes live in groups of 1,000 or more. In one year, a 100-bat colony can drink the blood of 25 cows.

During the darkest part of the night, common vampire bats emerge to hunt. Sleeping cattle and horses are their usual victims, but they have been known to feed on people as well. The bats drink their victim's blood for about 30 minutes. They don't remove enough blood to harm their host, but their bites can cause nasty infections and disease.

Hunting for Blood

Vampire bats strike their victims from the ground. They land near their prey and approach it on all fours. The bats have few teeth because of their liquid diet, but those they have are razor sharp. Each bat has a heat sensor on its nose that points it toward a spot where warm blood is flowing just beneath its victim's skin. After putting the bite on an animal, the vampire bat laps up the flowing blood with its tongue. Its saliva prevents the blood from clotting.

Young vampire bats feed not on blood but on milk. They cling tightly to their mothers, even in flight, and consume nothing but her milk for about three months.

The common vampire bat is found in the tropics of Mexico, Central America, and South America.

What determines the rate carbon moves through biotic and abiotic factors
konstantin123 [22]

The carbon cycle describes the way the element carbon moves between the Earth's biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere. It is important for a few reasons: Carbon is an essential element for all life, so understanding how it moves helps us to understand biological processes and factors that influence them.
