Chemistry

Answer:

It will decrease the pH of the water.

Explanation:

When carbon dioxide gets dissolved in water, it changes its pH.

The pH of water will become acidic.

In dissolved state, carbon dioxide forms carbonic acid with water as shown in the equation.

H_{2}O+CO_{2}--->H_{2}CO_{3}

This carbonic acid gets dissociated as shown in equation.

H_{2}CO_{3}--->2H^{+}+CO_{3}^{-2}

Due to increase in concentration of hydrogen ion, the pH of water decreases.

- a renewable resource can replenish itself at the rate it is used such as solar energy, wind energy, hydro energy, and tidal energy.

- a nonrenewable resource has a limited supply such as coal, gas, nuclear energy, and fossil fuels.

How do cells reproduce? ∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Cells divide to reproduce. There are two primary methods used, one for somatic cells, which compose the organism’s body, and one for reproductive cells, or gametes.

Scientists call the process of somatic cell division mitosis. Mitosis has six distinct steps in which the cell organizes and copies the DNA in the nucleus. Once copied, each new cell has its own copy of the DNA. The six steps of mitosis are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis. Some authorities consider the non-dividing portion of the cell’s lifecycle, known as interphase, to be one of seven steps involved in mitosis; however, interphase cells are not actively dividing.

Sex cells, such as sperm or eggs, must divide differently. Sex cells only possess one-half of the DNA that makes up a new animal. That way, when they combine, the resulting organism gets half of its DNA from its mother and half from its father. Because sex cells only want half of the DNA in each cell, they go through a different division process called meiosis. In meiosis, the cells split a second time, which yields four daughter cells rather than two as with mitosis; however, this provides each daughter cell with 23 chromosomes in contrast to the 46 chromosomes in somatic cells.
