1. The carbon-dioxide increases in atmosphere by fossil-fuels, decaying-dead, automobiles etc. and when animals or plant die they get buried and carbon content increases under the ground.
2. Greenhouse gas are those gases which trap heat in the atmosphere and maintain the temperature of the earth.
3. Diamond and graphite are solid forms of carbon.
4. Dry ice is the carbon as liquid.
5. Autotrophs make simple sugar glucose via photosynthesis and this sugar is used by heterotrophs as a substrate for respiration in the presence of oxygen.
Explanation:
When the fuels from automobiles, fossil-fuel, dead decaying organism release carbon in the atmosphere, the increase in carbon dioxide is the cause of global warming.
Greenhouse gases absorb the infrared radiations from the earth's surface and reradiate it back to the atmosphere. In short greenhouse gases allow sun's rays to pass through and maintain the earth's temperature otherwise the earth will become too cold to sustain lives.
Answer:
“Mono” denotes one, “di” denotes two, and “poly” denotes a large number.
What is the significance of these words in defining the
three forms of sugars?
These terms are used because they depict how the
molecule appears.
The molecule's base unit is called a "saccharide."
Explanation:
-
Only the bases varies from one nucleotide to another.
For both continental and ocean-floor topography, gentler slopes are represented by widely spaced lines while steeper slopes are represented by closely spaced lines.
Explanation:
The contour lines are one of the main, and one of the most used methods on the maps for representing the topography. Basically, the contour lines are closed lines that connect dots on the same elevation. It may sound very simple, but they do provide good insight into the topography, especially if the reader of the map knows how to interpret them well.
The contour lines are used both for continental and ocean-floor topography. The rules are the same for both, including the representation of the slopes. When a slope is gentler, the contour lines are more widely spaced. When a slope is steeper, the contour lines are much more closely spaced.
Some elements of the contour lines or that go with them to give better representation are:
- black dots (representing a top)
- thicker lines (every fifth, so that the counting is faster and easier)
- small lines with given direction (representing cliffs or highly steep slopes)
- numbers (providing information about elevation)
