Which situation is in equilibrium?

Biology
1 answer:
Orlov [11]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct answer is: B. The amount of air in a room never changes.

Explanation:

  • A system is said to be in equilibrium when the net components in the system remains constant (no increase or decrease) with time.
  • The air in a room never remains constant and always undergoes dynamic movement into and out of the room. At equilibrium, the net air in the room remains constant as amount of air exiting the room is balanced by the amount of air entering it.
  • Evaporation of water in the form of water vapour from a cup into the atmosphere is not in a state of equilibrium as the amount of water evaporating from the cup is not replaced in the cup so there is a net decrease in water level in the cup.
  • The decrease in nitrogen percentage in a room is not in equilibrium as the nitrogen concentration of the room is not constant.
  • A blade of grass growing taller is not in equilibrium as a constant height of the grasses is not maintained.

Match the following. 1. an act of fertilization involving the transfer of cell contents to another cell; usually occurs in simpl
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

1. Conjugation

2. Diploid

3. External fertilization

4. Fertilization

5. Haploid

Explanation:

Conjugation is a cell-to-cell encounter between bacteria cells. The bacteria come close to each other and DNA is then transferred through a tube-;ike structure called pilius.

The difference between diploid and haploid is that diploid organisms have chromosomes that come in pairs. The chromosomes are paired up with another chromosome that is similar in shape and size and that is why they are called homologous pairs. Haploid on the other hand do not come in pairs. In human beings for example, the egg cell and sperm cell are haploid, only having one homologous chromosome. When they join together during fertlization, they form a diploid.

Fertilization is the union of gamete cells, male and female, which result in the formation of a zygote. There are two types of fertilization, internal and external. Internal fertilization occurs when the union of the sex cells (gametes) occur inside the organism. You would see this in humans, where fertilization occurs in the womb. External fertilization occurs when the union occurs outside the organism and a good example of this would be fish. The female expels it's eggs into the water and the male would release its own sex cells as well, and they would join in the water.
