Could life as we know it exist on earth if air contained only oxygen? Explain
ycow [4]
Oxygen in it's purest form is a deadly gas that would kill is almost instantly. It is the cause for most (if not all) cases of combustion. We breath in two molecules of oxygen, which stabilizes the compound and allows us to dispel carbon dioxide safely. It only comprises a small part of the atmosphere though. The air is made up of around 93% nitrogen, which is vital for the survival of certain species on earth. There is also a carbon cycle in the air which will be destroyed, given that only oxygen was in the atmosphere.

If your carbohydrate consumption was low, then the process of making ATP would quickly diminish. Carbohydrates are the main source of energy to cells, and it's because of them that we can make ATP.

This would affect your cells by slowing them down, which ultimately slows you down as a whole. If it gets too serious, death can occur.

What are two major forces that shape and reshape earth? describe how each force works too please?
dexar [7]
<span>The two major forces that shape/reshape the earth are internal forces, i.e.volcanoes and earthquakes and external forces, i.e. weather and the ocean, both of which cause erosion. Volcanoes can add landmass but also can destroy land or cause a winter-like state caused by ash in the atmosphere which can block out the sun and possible killing vast amounts of plant and animal life. Earthquakes can change the land by process of subduction where one plate (land surface or ocean bottom) is forced under another. Erosion wears down geologic formations by the actions of wind and water. Over time water can carve valleys or canyons. Ocean water can erode coastlines by the constant beating of waves on the shore. Wind can carry away particles of land and deposit them elsewhere. Wind and weather combined can be a powerful force for reshaping the earth.</span>
