Biodiversity has a fundamental value to humans because we are so dependent on it for our cultural, economic, and environmental well-being. Some argue that it is our moral responsibility to preserve the Earth’s incredible diversity for the next generation. Others simply like knowing that nature’s great diversity exists and that the opportunity to utilize it later, if need be, is secure. Scientists value biodiversity because it offers clues about natural systems that we are still trying to understand. Arguably, the greatest value to humans, however, comes from the ?ecosystem services? it provides.
Biodiversity forms the backbone of viable ecosystems on which we depend on for basic necessities, security, and health. By breaking down plant and animal matter, for example, insects and other invertebrates make nutrients available to plants and are integral to the carbon and nitrogen cycles. Other species pollinate crops, an essential service for farmers. Healthy ecosystems can mitigate or prevent flooding, erosion, and other natural disasters. These ecosystem services also play a hand in the functioning of our climate and in both air and water quality.
Variables we know:
t = 8 seconds
Vi = 0 m/s
g = -9.81
Δy = ?
Vf = ?
Equation we will be using to solve for Vf: Vf = Vi + gt
Steps to solve:
Vf = (0) + (-9.81)(8)
Vf = -78.48 m/s
Hope this helps!! :)
Answer: Diffusion is the movement of particles from a high to low particle concentration, while osmosis is the movement of water from a high to a low water concentration.
Explanation:
The answer that correctly describes a reaction that forms a disaccharide from two monosaccharides is Galactose + glucose = lactose.
Cellulose is not a disaccharide, glycogen is not a monosaccharide, and sucrose isn't either.
What you have to do is balance the chemical equations to make sure everything is even on both sides. If you want me to help you answer the questions comment back
