The statement is - True.

The solvent do contains chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC) which evaporate and enter the atmosphere. Because they are very light, the CFC and HCFC manage to get very high into the atmosphere, reaching the ozone layer in the stratosphere. They are actually the two substances that are the most damaging to ozone layer, as once they get in touch with it, they break down its structure, thus creating the ozone holes.

The ozone is crucial for the survival of the living organisms on the Earth as it is the layer that manages to stop most of the ultraviolet rays form the Sun to reach the surface. Because of that, these two substances have to be replaced quickly as the ozone layer is becoming more and more damaged, and that can eventually lead to a tragedy

The correct answer is option B, that is, they all use cellular respiration to obtain energy.  

Cellular respiration refers to a set of metabolic procedures and reactions, which occur in the cells of species to transform biochemical energy into ATP and then discharge waste products. The reactions taking place in respiration are catabolic, that is, dissociation of bigger molecules into smaller ones, and in the process liberating energy.  

The nutrients, which are generally utilized by plant and animal cells in the process of respiration are amino acids, sugar, and fatty acids, and the most usual oxidizing agent, that is, the electron acceptor is the molecular oxygen.

What’s the difference between a standing defense and an induced defense?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The correct answer is: 4) Standing defenses are always present; induced defenses develop in response to a threat

Induced defense is defense that can be changed or invoked when needed. Induced defenses are slow to happen. When invoked, induced defense requires energy but otherwise doesn’t.

Standing defense is always there. It is use, for example when predation is a constant threat.
