They are a great way to beat the summer heat, with much milder temperatures at higher elevations bc there is fresh air, and studies have shown that living in higher elevations can have positive health benefits, such as improved cardiovascular health, weight loss, and longevity of life.
A coral reef is made of thin layers of calcium carbonate. Coral polyps form a living mat over a calcium carbonate skeleton. Stony corals (or scleractinians) are the corals primarily responsible for laying the foundations of, and building up, reef structures.
Energy from the sun heat and chemicals
Answer:
Explanation:
There are two types of respiration:
1. Aerobic respiration
2. Anaerobic respiration
Aerobic respiration
It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.
Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP
Anaerobic Respiration
It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.
Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide
This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration
The pressure from sound waves makes the eardrum vibrate.
The vibrations are transmitted further into the ear via three bones in the middle ear : the hammer (malleus), the anvil (incus) and the stirrup (stapes).
