Explanation:
Photosynthesis Vs. Respiration
1) Photosynthesis gets it's energy from sunlight, and uses the sunlight to change water and CO2 into energy. Cellular respiration gets it's energy from glucose molecules and oxygen.
2) Photosynthesis uses energy, CO2, and water to make energy and releases oxygen. Cellular respiration uses glucose molecules and oxygen to make energy, and releases CO2 and water.
3) Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria, and photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts.
Answer:
D. The tubes allow water and nutrients to be transported throughout
the plant.
Explanation:
option D supports the description of the cells. The long , vertical tubes transport water and nutrients and are most likely xylem and phloem vessels.
option A is wrong since, chloroplasts inside the cell helps in absorbing sunlight.
option C is also wrong, because water loss is controlled by the stomata in the leaves and they are not long tubes.
option B could possibly be right but option D is better suited.
The correct order would be:
1. A tree absorbs the carbon from the atmosphere into its leaves for photosynthesis;
2. A caterpillar gets the carbon by eating the tree's leaves.
3. A bird gets the carbon by eating the caterpillar.
4. The bird flies into a building and dies instantly. It falls to the ground.
5. The bird decomposes and the carbon returns to the atmosphere.
The carbon cycle is very similar to the water cycle, though it has its own unique ways. Once the carbon is released into the atmosphere, it will either be absorbed by the vegetation, or go up into the higher parts of the atmosphere. If it is absorbed by the vegetation, the organisms that eat the vegetation will get it in them. When the predators eat those organism they get the carbon into their organisms. When the predators die, they start to decompose. When they decompose, the carbon is released from them and it returns to the atmosphere, and the whole process goes all over again.
Answer:
When organisms use organic matter for cellular respiration, ALL the matter goes back into carbon dioxide, water, and minerals, while ALL the energy leaves the ecosystem as heat (which is ultimately radiated out into space). So matter cycles, energy flows through ecosystems.
