Is it hydrophobic or hydrophilic? Place the substance in water and see what happens... Does it shed all of the water immediately, or does it absorb the water...?

You can also place the substance on some paper. If it makes a grease spot (if you've ever put Cheez-its or Goldfish on your homework paper, you know what I'm talking about) then you know its a lipid. If it does not make a grease spot, you know it is NOT a lipid, so it will be a carb.

If this helped, please make it the brainliest answer! (The button's at the bottom of my answer) :)

Which statements accurately describe the roles of decomposers in the carbon cycle?
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, here's the complete question;

Which statements accurately describe the roles of decomposers in the carbon cycle? Check all that apply.

-Decomposers release carbon dioxide into the air as waste.

-Decomposers remove carbon dioxide from the air during photosynthesis.

-Decomposers break down the remains of dead plants and animals.

-Decomposers return carbon compounds to the soil.

-Decomposers use carbon to make food molecules.

The correct answer is;

Decomposers release carbon dioxide into the air as waste.

Decomposers break down the remains of dead plants and animals.

Decomposers return carbon compounds to the soil.

Explanation:

In the earth, all living things are made up of carbon. Carbon cycle is the process in which carbon travels from the atmosphere into living things in the earth and then returned into the atmosphere.  Carbon is released into the atmosphere through processes like respiration, decomposition, combustion etc. The carbon cycle explains how carbon is stored, made available to living things and replaced on earth. Plants absorb carbon in the form of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it to produce food (glucose) and release oxygen in a process called photosynthesis. When animals feed on these plants , the carbon is transferred to them and thus passes it along the food chain. During respiration, animals release carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. When the organisms eventually die, the carbon from them is put back into the atmosphere by decomposers so that other living organisms can use it. Decomposers break down dead organisms , releases carbon dioxide through cellular respiration and enriches the soil with nutrients.  The examples of decomposers are bacteria, fungi and worms. Bacteria decomposes most types of organic matter. Fungi are the main decomposers in the forest as they break down wood and the cellulose in plant cell walls. Decomposers are very important because they release carbon locked up in the dead organisms back into the atmosphere and without carbon dioxide in the atmosphere plants can not produce glucose and oxygen.

Select the correct answer.
nadezda [96]
The correct option is B.
For a mature woman, each month the increased level of estrogen hormone leads the pituitary gland to secrete luteinizing hormone. Once this hormone is secreted, the ovary releases a single egg which moves down to the lining of the uterus. If fertilization does not occur, the egg is shed together with the lining of the uterus in a monthly process called mensuration. If fertilization occur, then the fertilized egg attach to the lining of the uterus and placenta is formed. The fertilized egg then send signal to the ovary to keep secreting progesterone, which will sustaining the pregnancy by keeping the uterus lining thick and nourishing for the developing embryo.
