Give an example of how a biome is an open system from the point of view of the biosphere, atmosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphe
Karolina [17]

Given what we know, we can confirm that the biome is in fact an open system due to the interactions between the biosphere, atmosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphere.

<h3>What is the biome?</h3>
  • The biome is the collection of air, soil, water, and all the organisms that reside within these ecosystems.
  • In order to describe an open system, we say that the system must have external interactions.
  • A biome is an open system because it has both internal and external interactions, such as with asteroids in space.
  • The internal interactions include the ones between the<em><u> biosphere, atmosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphere.</u></em>
  • A prime example is the movement of water through each of the spheres.

Therefore, since each part of the biome interacts with each other as well as with external sources such as space, we can confirm that it complies with the definition of an open system.

The biosphere is made of different kinds of matter. Which substance is an
Sedaia [141]

Salt is the Inorganic matter.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Organic matters are defined as those compounds of carbon expect the carbonates, bicarbonates, cyanides etc. These compounds were primarily thought to be produced only from the living organisms and were unable to be produced in laboratory. But later they were being produced in laboratory too.

Inorganic compounds are all the compounds except the organic ones.

Here, in the question, we see the compounds -

Protein - it's the polymer of amino acids which contain carbon, and isn't carbonates or bicarbonates, cyanides etc.

Carbohydrates and sugars are also similar to proteins which contain carbon and isn't the exceptions. So they are also the organic compounds.

But salt, commonly table salt is sodium chloride which doesn't contain carbon, so is Inorganic.

Complete the following vocabulary exercise related to the process of translation of mRNA to protein by the ribosome.Match the wo
vredina [299]

1. The RNA that has an amino acid attached to it, and that binds to the codon on the mRNA, is called a tRNA.

tRNA are molecules involved in protein synthesis (translation) and those molecules connect codons from mRNA with  the amino acids they encode.tRNA has anticodone that binds to mRNA codone.

2. The process, performed by the ribosome, of reading mRNA and synthesizing a protein is called translation.

Translation is a process of gene expression in which proteins are synthesized (translated from the codons on mRNA).

3. Initiation of translation always happens at the start codon of the mRNA.

Translation process can be divided into three stages: initiation (starting off), elongation (adding amino acids to peptide chain that is going to become protein) and termination (finishing up).

4. Amino acids are attached to tRNA by enzymes called aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase.

These enzymes are part of the elongation stage of translation and they catalyze the adding of amino acids.

5. Termination of translation happens when the ribosome hits a stop codon on the mRNA.

Termination is the stage in which the finished polypeptide chain (future protein) is released from the ribosome.
