6 0

Answer:

Towards the end of the 1970's, there has been observed a two ozone layer events which relate to each other.

Explanation:

The first observation is the steady decrease in the amount of ozone layer in the earths atmosphere while the second one is an effect to the polar regions of the earth characterized by the reduction of the spring seasons in the stratospheric zone of the ozone layer.

Research has given the results that the main causative agent of the depletion of the ozone layer are human activities. The shift from using organic products to using a lot of chemicals, e.g, bromine and chlorine.

The effect of ozone depletion is that, it causes a number of cancer cells, it leads to aging of the skin, and also causes genetic mutations thereby affecting the current and future generations.

The ozone layer, when healthy, serves the purpose of preventing from harmful U.V rays from the sun.

Which of the following did you remember?
Kaylis [27]
Answer:
All statements are true and explain the function of most organelles present in the cell.
Explanation:
I remember the following:
-The nucleus directs cell activity: the nucleus is where the genetic information is found and by means of gene expression it controls the cellular functions.
-Ribosomes produce proteins for the cell: Ribosomes make messenger RNA proteins (mRNA) by connecting amino acids together
-These proteins are then moved through the cell by the endoplasmic reticulum: it is a network of membranes within the cell through which proteins and other molecules move
-The Golgi apparatus packages and distributes proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum: It transforms and exports protein to the rest of the body. Proteins, in their passage through the Golgi apparatus, carry out a modification process.
-Vacuoles store water, waste products, food, etc: vacuoles store substances, in plants they occupy a large percentage of the cytoplasm and change their size during ormoregulation.
-Lysosomes break down waste material and debris: They contains hydrolytic enzymes that allow intracellular digestion of macromolecules
-Mitochondria break down sugar molecules to supply energy. Similarly, chloroplasts capture the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy: Chloroplasts and mitochondria through the processes of cellular respiration and photosynthesis produce energy necessary for the vital functions of the cell.
-The cell membrane protects the cell and controls what enters and leaves it. The cell wall supports the cell membrane, maintains the cell’s shape, and protects the cell. The cytoplasm supports and protects organelles in the cell: The membrane is the support of the cell and through it there is exchange with the external environment. The cytoplasm is the one that supports the rest of cellular organelles
