Evolution is the
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Evolution is the <u>biological process</u> that happens over time in a population, giving rise to new <u>species.</u> The theory of evolution states that all organisms alive on Earth today <u>have a common ancestor</u> which lived <u>years ago</u>.

Explanation:

Evolution is one of the fundamental reason of diverse life on Earth today. Principally, this process takes place by changes in genetic elements via mutations and crossing-over. The positive changes (mutations) allow the organism to develop better condition in order to survive in changing environmment. However, if the changes takes place at major scale, it also leads to the creation/development of new species. To explain this further, I have added a photograph where we can see how different organisms were evolved in the history of Earth.

Each cell has a structure that separates the inside of the cell from.the environment. What cell is this?
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Either the cell wall or the cell membrane.

Explanation:

All cells have cell membranes which line the outside of the cell, and some cells have cell walls, which also line the outside of the cell. Since all cells have cell membranes I am inclined to believe that the correct answer would be cell membranes.

Which of the following is NOT a process that drives the carbon cycle?
stiks02 [169]

"Ammonification" is NOT a process that drives the carbon cycle.

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The organisms circulate carbon-di-oxide in carbon cycle by going through respiration, decomposition, sedimentation, and photosynthesis process but not ammonification. Basically the actual source of nitrogen is agricultural, when a plant or animal passes or an animal disperses waste.

In the remains, bacteria or fungi turn the organic nitrogen back into ammonium, a cycle called ammonisation or mineralisation. Then the micro-organisms generate metabolically required energy from organic nitrogen oxidation into ammonium. Ammonium is then essential for assimilation and absorption into amino acids or for use in other metabolic applications.

Why are negative feedback loops used to control body homeostasis? <br><br> (Short answer)
liberstina [14]

Answer:

Homeostasis is defined as the state of body in which body maintains several chemical and physical changes inside the body affected by external factors.

Negative feedback loop includes a sensor, stimulus, control center, and effector which is used to control homeostasis.

A negative feedback loop is a reaction that reduce an excessive response and maintain the functions within the normal range. for example: if temperature and blood glucose level increases in the body, negative feedback loops control both the variables and maintain homeostasis.  

Hence, negative feedback loops used to control body homeostasis.
