The following choices are provided;
- Earthquakes release phosphorus.
- Phosphorus is carried in the rain that was evaporated from lakes.
- Human use of fertilizers releases phosphorus into the groundwater.
- Phosphorus is transpired.
The answer is; Earthquakes release phosphorus
Phosphorus is usually made less available to plants and to the rest of the ecosystem through runoffs. The washed-off phosphorus is deposited at the oceans- and seabeds with sediments. This phosphorus is made available again due to tectonic plate movements. Tectonic movements may cause earthquakes that expose these sediments to the earth’s surface.This uncovers the sedimentary rocks to agents of weathering and hence the elements are more available to living organisms on the surface.
A) unproductive wastelands I believe is the answer you are looking for.
The neuron, or nerve cell, is the basic functional unit of the nervous system
Answer: Lysosomes.
Lysosomes are the specialized membrane-bound cell organelles present in almost all eukaryotic cells. The lysosomal membrane keeps the acidic (pH 5) compartment of lysosomes segregated from the cytoplasm. Lysosomes play a crucial role in the degradation of waste material and debris inside the cell.
This is accomplished by the action of hydrolytic enzymes also called as acid hydrolases. These enzymes are only active in the acidic medium which is maintained in the lysosomes by proton pumps.
Lysosomes are also called as 'suicide bags' as they clear off the waste material.
Answer:
The correct answer is - D) 1000x.
Explanation:
pH is a logarithmic scale, 1 reading change leads to the results in ten-fold in the
H+ concentration in acidity/basicity. The more H
+ ions found in solution, the more acidic the substance is as acids donate H
+ ions.
You can calculate the concentration of H
+ from the pH and the equation
