Answer:  D. the atmosphere does not contribute to the phosphorus cycle.

Explanation:

The phosphorus cycle is different as compared to the carbon, water and nitrogen cycle as the phosphorus element cannot be found in the gaseous state as a result of this the phosphorus cannot be found in the earth atmosphere. The phosphorus can be found in the sedimentary mineral rocks. The weathering process of the sedimentary mineral rocks provides the inorganic phosphorus to the plants. This way the phosphorus cycle begins with the food chain.

Carbon in the form of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and other gases can be found in the atmosphere.

The surface area/volume ratio is an important factor for one celled organisms. As a cell's volume grows, its surface area/volume
Stells [14]

Answer

Use Mitosis to divide and create daughter cells.

Explanations  

Single-celled organisms use mitosis to reproduce. Both growth and reproduction in unicellular organisms are mutually inclusive. When the cell’s volume grows, the ratio of surface area to volume decreases creating challenges in acquisition of nutrients because there will be too much cytoplasm for a given amount of nuclear material , thus the cell divides by mitosis to reproduce daughter cells and the process begins again.

It is best to say that the protection to properties offered by sea walls along coasts _______.
Mashcka [7]

Answer: a.  decreases the present and future risk to human properties

Explanation:

Properties along the coasts can be in danger when high tides come in. This can however be mitigated by walls protecting those properties as it would take a significantly high tide (flood proportion) to scale those walls and come in and damage the property.

These walls therefore not only decrease the present risk to human properties but if maintained, decrease the future risks as well.
