Answer:

0.058 % kcalories comes from carbohydrate.

Explanation:

1 g of carbohydrtes gives 4 calories, 1 g of protein gives 4 kcalories, 1 gm of fat gives 9 calories and 1 g of alcohol gives 7 calories of energy.

Thus in a meal  that contains 110 g carbohydrates gives 110 x 4 = 440 calories,  25 g protein gives 25 x 4 = 100 calories, 20 g fat gives 20 x 9 = 180 calories and 5 g alcohol gives 5 x 7 =  35 calories.

Total calories in a meal  440+100+180+35 = 755.

Therefore % of carbogydrate will be 440x 100 divided by 755 = 58.27 %

In kcalories % would be 58.27/1000 = 0.5827 %

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.

The ability of a person's cardiovascular system to compensate for blood loss is most related to?
amid [387]

The ability of a person's cardiovascular system to compensate for blood loss is most related to how rapidly he or she bleeds.

<h3>what is cardiovascular system made up of?</h3>

Your cardiovascular system, which consists of your heart and blood arteries, is an essential component of your body. When your cardiovascular system is functioning properly, your cells receive a constant supply of oxygen and nutrients from your blood. Carbon dioxide and other waste are also removed via blood vessels. You have the ability to maintain your heart and blood vessels healthy. Eating healthy foods, exercising, keeping your blood pressure and cholesterol under control, and quitting smoking are all beneficial to your cardiovascular system. Request assistance from your provider in achieving heart health.

If all fungi in an environment that perform decomposition were to suddenly die, then which group of organisms should benefit mos
Nata [24]

Answer:

prokaryotes

Explanation:

Prokaryotics will be the next group after fungus that will benefit if all the fungus were to die a sudden death.

As the protist group consist of mostly disease causing organisms and plants are one that take the benefit from the decomposed material while animals are the those that feed on organisms from first and second tropic level.

Prokaryotes mostly have single celled organisms such as bacteria which help in decomposition of the organic waste left by the higher organisms
