Carbon is a reactant in the process of photosynthesis but a product in the process of cellular respiration.
<h3>What is carbon cycle?</h3>
Carbon cycle is the physical cycle of carbon through the Earth’s biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere.
It is the series of processes by which carbon compounds are interconverted in the environment, that includes such processes as
- photosynthesis
- decomposition
- respiration
- carbonification
Carbon cycle involves the incorporation of carbon dioxide into living tissue by photosynthesis and its return to the atmosphere through respiration, the decay of dead organisms, and the burning of fossil fuels.
Therefore, carbon is present in the atmosphere as a reactant during photosynthesis and as a product during cellular respiration.

Answer:
The correct answer is option - A. Gametophyte, C. spore, and D. sperm.
Explanation:
The egg cell of a plant is haploid in the cell which means it has only one set of chromosomes. The haploid cells arise from the meiosis cell division in parent sex cells. These parent cells are divided into four cells with half of the chromosome number in comparison to the parent cells.
The gametophyte, spore, and sperm all three are the product of the meiosis division and are haploid in number.
Thus, the correct answer is option - A, gametophyte, C. spore and D. sperm.
By starch, I'm assuming you mean glycogen, or animal starch.
Similarities:
Both are polysaccharide molecules made from glucose molecules linked together in a long chain.
Both are storehouses of energy.
Differences:
Glycogen is made in animal cells and is the only form of starch animals can digest (unless they have certain microbes in their intestinal tracts to break down cellulose, which all herbivores need).
Cellulose is made in plant cells.
The bonds are a bit different; the molecules are isomers. Glycogen bonds with what is called an alpha 1,4 bond, meaning that the first carbon of one glucose molecule is bonded to the 4th carbon of the next glucose molecule, but in a way that puts the bonds in a shape that falls below the plane of the molecule, and allows branching.
Cellulose bonds with beta 1,4 bonds. The first and fourth carbons of adjoining glucose molecules are still connected, but the shape of the bond falls above the plane of the molecule and does not branch.
Since enzymes are specific to their substrates, the enzymes shaped to fit glycogen bonds do not fit on cellulose bonds, which is why animals cannot digest cellulose on their own. In herbivores, there are microbes in their digestive tracts which can produce enzymes to break these bonds so the glucose can be used. In carnivores and omnivores like humans, there is no enzyme to break down cellulose so it becomes 'roughage' in our diets. It passes through the digestive tract without being broken down.
Answer:
Hey, dont worry.
Explanation:
Climax communities are composed of a large variety of complex organisms. Climax communities are stable.
Answer:
The correct answer would be:
Advantage: helps in finding the exact ph value with a narrower range.
Disadvantage: You don't know the exact ph value on a regular scale.
Explanation:
The pH paper is a pH paper with a color indicator that helps in determining the pH value precisely between the 4.5 to 7.5 pH range. It is accurate in comparison to other pH papers such as 0-14 paper. One no need to guess the color between the different colors from various color mixtures as it has a more precise color reading that helps in finding accurate pH value in a narrow range.
On a regular scale, it is not as accurate and one can not find the exact value as it provides a narrow range value between 4.5 to 7.5.
