Setler [38]3 years ago

Increasing the cell's volume would reduce the efficiency of the diffusion of materials through the plasma membrane into the cytoplasm of the cell. 

On the other hand, increase the surface area and decreasing the volume oft the cell would increase the rate of diffusion across the plasma membrane.

Lelu [443]

Answer:

It causes oxygen depletion in the water

Explanation:

When the amounts of organic matter in the water are significant, the activity of aerobic bacteria and other decomposers increases.  

Organic matter suffers decomposition in the presence of oxygen. Microorganisms degrade it while consuming dissolved oxygen in the process. Bacteria show fast and exponential growth, so the more organic matter, the more aerobic bacteria, and the less available oxygen in the water.

Organisms that usually inhabit these waters are affected by the lack of oxygen. Plants, algae, animals, and other invertebrates that need it to survive, find themselves limited in these environmental conditions. Eventually, they dye and contribute with more organic matter.

Little by little, sedimentation begins caused by the death of vegetables and animals, sinking in the bottom.

When oxygen disappears, anaerobic bacteria grow and act, producing fermentation.

What is most likely to result immediately after a rainforest in Brazil is clear-cut?
Xelga [282]

Answer: secondary succession

Explanation: An ecological succession can be defined as a change that occur in the biotic community of the ecosystem with respect to the changes that occur in the abiotic factors like water, soil and climatic conditions with respect to time.

Secondary succession can be defined as the changes that occur in an area which was previously occupied by the living species and the area was disturbed by either human intervention or natural calamity.

Brazil clear cut is an example of secondary succession because after the clear cut some precursors like seeds, roots and other parts of the plants or trees can support the regrowth of plants and trees. Initiating the succession again.

Which statement correctly compares the body’s energy storage molecules? Glycogen is the body’s main source of energy, but lipids
Artemon [7]

The correct answer is Glycogen is the body’s main source of energy, but lipids contain most of the body’s stored energy.

The glycogen  is a polymer of the glucose. The carbohydrates are the main source of the energy in our body. The glucose that is left after the normal energy utilisation by the body is converted into the glycogen and stored at various location, but the most of the energy reserves of our body lies in the fats, which is stored in form of lipids.
