Answer:

The process of photosynthesis is considered as a bridge between the non living and living world because the substrate which is used in this process is non living and the plants that convert this into useful product is a living thing.

The carbohydrates that is produced by the plants body is used by the plants and animals which is also living thing.

The oxygen which is produced as a by-product is also used by the plant and animals and they are also living components of life.

Hence, it acts as a bridge between the living and non living components of life.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

TP synthesis in glycolysis: substrate-level phosphorylation

True [87]

Trace fossils provide us with indirect evidence of life in the past, such as the footprints, tracks, burrows, borings, and feces left behind by animals, rather than the preserved remains of the body of the actual animal itself.
