Why does iron fertilization of open oceans increase phytoplankton densities?

Biology
1 answer:
hodyreva [135]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The iron fertilization is the method in which intentional introduction of the iron is done in the ocean. This is done in the area which has poor iron content.

This is important in order to increase the productivity or to accelerate the carbon dioxide sequestration from the atmosphere.

This is a trace element which is required for the process of photosynthesis in plants.

A large bloom of algae is developed using iron which will nourish the other members of the ocean.

Describe how amoebas obtain food?
monitta
Amoeba acquires it food by endocytosis, that is, a small region in the plasma membrane which ultimately forms a intra-cellular membrane-bound vescicle. It engulfs it food using its pseudopodia (temporary protrusion of the surface of the amoeboid cell used for feeding and movement) and forms a vacuole around it. When the food is already trapped inside, it releases a digestive enzyme to digest it. Intake of liquid particles is pinocytosis (cell drinking) while intake of solid particles is phagocytosis (cell eating).

Several groups of protists have variable modes of nutrition: Some species are photoautotrophs, whereas close relatives are heter
Radda [10]

Answer:

The endosymbiotic theory

Explanation:

Protists are the multicellular organisms which possess characteristics of both the prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

The protist can derive nutrition by either heterotrophic mode or photoautotrophic mode. This variation could exist within the same genus and same species.

This variation could be explained with the endosymbiotic origin of the organisms as some species could engulf the photosynthetic bacteria whereas some could have engulfed the chemosynthetic bacteria.

This can be observed in the green and red algae which depend on a different mode of nutrition belonging to the same group.

Thus, the endosymbiotic theory is correct.
