It is transferred in many ways. For example an animal eats a plant, the plant contained carbon and now the animal ate it.
The atmosphere contains carbon and the plants take it.
The ocean have carbon due to the animals living in it.

What term is used to describe bacterial cells that can naturally take up dna from their environment?

Maru [420]

<h2>The correct answer is: Competent cells</h2>

Explanation:

Bacterial cells have the capability of incorporating foreign naked DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid fragments from the environment or the exterior of the cell to the interior of the cell. This process is known as Transformation.
The bacterial cells which are able to undergo transformation are called Competent bacterial cells.
Some of the bacterial cells are naturally competent like<em> Bacillus subtilis, Streptocossus pneumoniae</em> while others like <em>Escherishia coli </em>need to be chemically treated to make them artificially competent.
In natural competence, the foreign DNA from the cell exterior is incorporated into the cell interior through specific protein complexes present in the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells.
In artificial competence, the negative charge on foreign DNA is masked by positively charged calcium ions (so that it is not repelled by the negative charge of the lipid bilayer of the bacterial cell plasma membrane) and then small pores are created in the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells by giving a heat shock to the cells. This results in the uptake of the DNA by the bacterial cells.

In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes_______.a. photorespiration. b. a shift to C4.c. photosynthesis.d. the opening of

ankoles [38]

Answer:

A) photorespiration.

Explanation:

Photorespiration is the harmful metabolic process which takes place when the concentration of oxygen in the leaf increases compared to carbon dioxide.

The RUBISCO enzyme which usually binds the carbon dioxide now binds the oxygen and form the phosphoglycolate and 3 phosphoglycerate. The phosphoglycolate is lost through the Calvin cycle as Carbon dioxide molecule. This loss proves harmful to the plants.

The photorespiration occurs when the plant faces high temperature therefore n order to prevent water loss the stomata gets closed. This result in the binding of the oxygen to the RUBISCO and thus photorespiration begins.

Thus, Option-A is correct.

_____ is an area in the left frontal lobe of the brain that is involved in speech production

bogdanovich [222]

<span>BROCA'S AREA Broca's area or the Broca area is a region in the left frontal lobe of the dominant hemisphere of the hominid brain with functions linked to speech production. Broca area, also called convolution of Broca, region of the brain that contains neurons involved in speech function. This was discovered in 1861 by French surgeon Paul Broca, who found that it serves a vital role in the generation of articulate speech.</span>
