babunello [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer and Explanation:

Although I was unable to find the multiple choices for the question, here is a simple, summarized explanation:

<u>Lactase</u> is an enzyme that is involved in breaking down lactose the sugar in milk. It is produced by a gene known as the LCT gene.

This enzyme is produced in the small intestine, and its main role is to digest a sugar called lactose, which is present in dairy products such as milk, and then transform it into simpler sugars - glucose and galactose -. This 'transformation' makes it easier for the body to absorb these sugars into the bloodstream and eventually turn them into energy.

What method can scientists use to<br> determine when the fossil above appeared<br> on Earth?
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Relative dating is used to determine a fossils approximate age by comparing it to similar rocks and fossils of known ages. Absolute dating is used to determine a precise age of a fossil by using radiometric dating to measure the decay of isotopes, either within the fossil or more often the rocks associated with it.

cestrela7 [59]

Energy in ecosystems must be continuously supplied by the sun  as the warmth from the sun allows plants to grow plus photosynthesis depends on the sun's energy also. Animals also depend on the sun for warmth to survive (or else hibernate). Also, the sun powers the water cycle, the carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle

The atoms of elements sometimes become "sequestered" in the environment. which of the following is an example of this?
Marta_Voda [28]

d. carbon atoms in ocean water

Explanation:

The carbon atoms in ocean water is one of the ways through which carbon is sequestered in nature.

Sequestration of carbon implies the storage of carbon either naturally or artificially for a very long time.

Carbon sequestration cuts off carbon from the normal biogeochemical cycle and stores it in natural reservoirs for a very long duration.

  • In nature, carbon is sequestered a whole lot through biological and chemical activities.
  • Phytoplanktons are food producers. When consumed by higher organisms, their organic materials which contains carbon can become sequestered when the consumer dies and falls to the bottom of the ocean.
  • Organisms that used carbonate to manufacture their shells in the ocean also sequesters carbon.
