Human activity has increased the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide not only remains in the air, but

also enters into the oceans. Explain how the increased level of carbon dioxide in the ocean water has the potential to affect biodiversity. Then, predict what would happen to ocean ecosystems as a result of this loss.

Answer:

The enhanced level of carbon dioxide in the ocean can turn the pH of the seawater more acidic. As the water in the ocean becomes more acidic the calcium carbonate shells, which is a component of various species starts to dissolve.  

The majority of these species are the secondary or the primary producers, thus, the base of the food web would start declining in the biodiversity. Thus, if the base of the food web began to decline, the animals found further in the food web also gets affected, thus, reducing the biodiversity of the ocean in complete.

There are tons of answers you could have.
One, for example:
Increased levels of CO2 decreases DO levels in the water and suffocates organisms, leading to population drops that can cause a genetic bottle neck effect, thus decreasing overall biodiversity. This could lead to extinction

How do cell differentiation and cell division work together?
Flura [38]

Answer:

After mitosis is over, each of the daughter cells continues its separate life.

Explanation:

One or both can be started or continued through differentiation, ie. processes that give different cells special structures and functions. A cell destined to become a nerve cell moves in one way of differentiation, and a cell destined to be a muscle cell moves in another.

A variation of this mechanism involves a special type of cell called a stem cell. The stem cell divides by mitosis, whereby one daughter cell remains the stem cell and continues to divide again and again, while the other difference in certain cell peaks is determined in the tissues.

Whats the relationship between DNA,chromosomes,and genes?
Elina [12.6K]
DNA is a chain of nucleotides bonded together.  On that chain there are particular portions of it that the sequence of the nucleotide codes for particular proteins; this is known as a gene.  In eukaryotric cells, DNA is coiled around proteins such as histones to form chromatids which when two join at the centre by a centromere to form a chromosome.
