The tolerable upper intake of zinc for an adult is 40 mg per day.

But the recommended daily intake of Zinc (RDA) is 15 mg per day for an adult. Nevertheless, this contribution must be adapted according to your age and your activity. Attention, in case of excessive excess, zinc can become toxic.

The tolerable dose (without side effects) can be up to 40 mg per day, it is prescribed in case of infection as during cooling. Attention in case of treatment with 40 mg of zinc per day, the maximum duration of treatment is 4 days.

Answer:

40 mg

The tolerable upper intake level for zinc for adults is 40 mg.

Explanation;

According to US Food and Nutrition Board the tolerable upper intake level (UL) for adults is 40 mg/day, including dietary and supplemental zinc.

-Zinc is a very important mineral element in the body, It is needed for the body's defensive (immune) system to properly work, plays a role in cell division, cell growth, wound healing, and the breakdown of carbohydrates. and is also needed for the senses of smell and taste.

How is nitrogen from the atmosphere, the abiotic part of the ecosystem, converted into the biotic part of the ecosystem in organ
creativ13 [48]
In the process of the nitrogen cycle. <span>                
The nitrogen cycle is a biogeochemical succession process of nitrogen that involves: fixation, ammonification, nitrification, and denitrification. Like any other biogeochemical cycles. This process undergoes and affects the biological, geometrical and chemical aspects in the ecosystem and the abiotic and biotic community. Hence, the nitrogen cycle leads the abiotic component –nitrogen- to contribute to the biotic community, decomposition and primal production. Further, it becomes an essential part of the environment because some life components are contains it, similarly, amino acids, nucleic acids in RNA and DNA.  </span><span> </span>

Bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen to which of the following in the process of nitrogen fixation?
DiKsa [7]

Q1) Bacteria are capable of converting atmospheric N in the form of N2 gas to NH3. this process is known as nitrogen fixation. N2 in the atmospheric form is not usable by other organisms, therefore specialised bacteria such as Azetobacter species are capable of carrying out this conversion from N2 gas into NH3 form that can be used by other organisms 


Q2) Condensation.

Water in the gaseous state or known as vapour state converted to liquid state, process is known as condensation. in condensation the particles in water become more tightly packed and heat energy is removed from these particles reducing their kinetic energy thus becoming liquid state


Q3) 

Transpiration declines

Deforestation is when the number of trees and plants have been cut down therefore numbers have reduced drastically, transpiration is the process in which water is transported through the plant and lost to the environment through evaporation. When the trees and plants have reduced the water lost by way of transpiration is also reduced. This impacts the water cycle as the number of water being cycled in the environment is lesser now.


Q4) the sun

sun is the major source of energy that facilitates the recycling of water in the water cycle. The sun causes water to be evaporated from water bodies and converted to water vapour. This water vapour is then recycled.


Q5) Plants can’t use Nitrogen in the form of N2

N is an essential element needed by plants, however plants cannot use up the atmospheric N2 gas. therefore bacteria are capable of nitrogen fixation that converts N2 gas into forms that can be used up and absorbed by the plants from soil.
