The three branches of science are life, earth, and physical science.
Life science deals with living organisms, so, biology is the most important of these sciences, although there are many.
Earth science deals with Planet Earth, studying its atmosphere, lithosphere, etc.
Physical science studies the inorganic world.
Energy to lift something =
(mass of the object) x (gravity) x (height of the lift).
BUT ...
This simple formula only works if you use the right units.
Mass . . . kilograms
Gravity . . . meters/second²
Height . . . meters
For this question . . .
Mass = 55 megagram = 5.5 x 10⁷ grams = 5.5 x 10⁴ kilograms
Gravity (on Earth) = 9.8 m/second²
Height = 500 cm = 5.0 meters
So we have ...
Energy = (5.5 x 10⁴ kilogram) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)
= 2,696,925 joules .
That's quite a large amount of energy ... equivalent to
straining at the rate of 1 horsepower for almost exactly an
hour, or burning a 100 watt light bulb for about 7-1/2 hours.
The reason is the large mass that's being lifted.
On Earth, that much mass weighs about 61 tons.
If the object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, then that's
the definition of zero acceleration. It can only happen when the sum of
all forces (the 'net' force) on the object is zero.
And it doesn't matter what the object's mass is. That argument is true
for specks of dust, battleships, rocks, stars, rock-stars, planets, and
everything in between.
Answer:
A. respiration.
Explanation:
Cellular respiration can be defined as a series of metabolic reactions that typically occur in cells so as to produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). During cellular respiration, high energy intermediates are created that can then be oxidized to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Therefore, the intermediary products are produced at the glycolysis and citric acid cycle stage.
Additionally, mitochondria provides all the energy required in the cell by transforming energy forms through series of chemical reactions; breaking down of glucose into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) used for providing energy for cellular activities in the body of living organisms.
Basically, oxygen goes into the body of a living organism such as plants, humans and animals when they breathe while glucose is absorbed by the body when they eat.
Hence, the conversion of sugar to energy in the presence of oxygen is respiration.
