What happened after plants first became able to live on land?

After the plants became able to live on land, and the reason for that being the ability for higher glucose production, they managed to influence numerous things on the planet and change it drastically.

Some of the more marking things that happened because of the plants that started to live on land were the change in the composition of the gasses in the atmosphere, the formation of soils, and climate changes.

The plants perform a process called photosynthesis in order to make their own food. For this process they use carbon dioxide. The carbon is used, while the oxygen is a waste product that is released. Over time, through this process, the plants managed to significantly increase the oxygen levels on the Earth, making it suitable for the animals to move in as well on the land.

The increase of oxygen in the atmosphere resulted in climate changes, as the oxygen makes the climate cooler, thus in general the climate cooled off. Also, with their shade, the plants manage to reduce the temperature on the surface, the trees also being able to slow down and affect the low air movements...

The plants, as all organisms, eventually die. When they die, they decompose. In this manner they introduced the land with the first biomass, thus the rocks and the biomass started to mix. Over time this led to the formation of multiple types of different soils.

Controlled nuclear chain reactions ____.
inna [77]
<span>Answer: a. take place in nuclear reactors

</span><span>Controlled nuclear chain reactions are the reaction in nuclear reactors. The reaction is controlled to make its rate slower. This will make the reaction relatively safer, so the energy produced can be changed into electricity in power plant. When the reaction is not controlled, it could cause explosive like in nuclear bomb.</span>

Where does thyroxine come from and what does it do?
GREYUIT [131]

Thyroxine is an important hormone released into the bloodstream by the thyroid gland in the body. When tyroxine is released into the blood stream, it moves through certain organs such as the kidney and liver, where most of it is changed to an active form known as triiodothyronine. Thyroxine perform important roles in brain development, heart and digestive functions, bone maintenance, controlling muscle and metabolic rate of the body.

Water's ability to dissolve a wide variety of molecules is important, but more important is the hydrophobic effect, which drives
NeX [460]

Answer and explanation;

The hydrophobic effect is the observed tendency of non-polar substances to aggregate in an aqueous solution and exclude water molecules. Hydrophobic interaction is mostly an entropic effect originating from the disruption of highly dynamic hydrogen bonds between molecules of liquid water by the non-polar solute.

Introduction of such a non-hydrogen bonding surface into water causes disruption of the hydrogen bonding network between water molecules.

Water dissolves molecules (proteins and nucleic acids) that display on their solvent-accessible surfaces groups that can h-bond [hydroxyl, carbonyl, ester groups; they're polar uncharged...also charged groups; protonated amines, carboxylates and phosphate ethers.

Molecules with internal h-bonds dissolve in water, some/all internal h-bonds may be in dynamic exchange with h-bonds in water .

Polar nature of water contributes to ability to dissolve non-ionic polar organic molecules, such as phenols, esters, amides; have large dipole moments and interaction with water dipole promotes solubility in water.
