1. Respiration-process by which plants release CO, while they break down the sugar

2. Animals eat plants- They break down sugars and starches by a process of metabolism and the products are energy water, and CO2 molecules.

3. Decomposition-when plants die, their parts (wood, leaves) decay bringing the carbon into the ground

4. Root respiration- respiration that occurs in roots, adds to soil respiration (the amount of CO2 produced through root respiration is determined by the root biomass ).

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

This will happen in 39 years.

Explanation:

The population of the birds varies as A = A.e^kt

The population of birds fell from 1400 from 1000

Time it will take for the population to fall below 100 = x years.

when t = 0, population = 1400

t= 3; Population = 1000

Therefore:

1400 = 1000e^5k

e^5k= 1400/1000

k= (In 1.4)/5

we need to find x, such that

1400/1000= (e^xk)

14=(e^xk)

In(14) =kx

x= 5In(14)/In(1.4)

x= 39 years

A gene that codes for a protein was removed from a eukaryotic cell and inserted into a prokaryotic cell. Although the gene was s

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Option (3).

Explanation:

The process of the transcription and translation is quite different in case of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Transcription and translation is couple together in prokaryotes whereas it takes place in separate compartment in case of eukaryotes.

The gene has been transferred from the eukaryotes to prokaryote but the protein produced is quite different. This might occur due to the presence of introns in the eukaryotes whereas prokaryotes do not have introns. In case of eukaryotes, the protein express after the splicing process but no splicing occurs in prokaryotes and give different product.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

AURORKA [14]

Lipids are generally defined as nonpolar compounds in the body that are possessing properties of being hydrophobic and amphiphilic. Lipids play an essential role in living organisms because they comprise the formation of cellular membranes, hormones, vitamins, and most especially energy storage.

There are a wide classification of lipids. Examples are fatty acids in monoglycerides, diglycerides and triglycerides. Other examples are cholesterol, vitamins, waxes, and other phospholipids. The general structure of common lipids in the body like triglycerides and phospholipids are shown in the pictures attached.

______________ is a statistical procedure that can be used to identify clusters of behaviors that are related to a trait.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Factor Analysis

Explanation:

Factor Analysis is a statistical procedure that can be used to identify clusters of behaviors (such as verbal skills, intelligence) that are related to a trait.

Factor analysis helps to accumulate a lot of data in many variables into a few variables which can be used for further analysis or study. The aim of factor analysis is to aggregate individual behaviors into a minimized number of factors.
