kicyunya [14]4 years ago
7 0

<u>Answer:</u>   C. A plant absorbing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis

<em>A plant absorbing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis can be considered as assimilation in the carbon cycle. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>The process of carbon fixation is called assimilation in carbon cycle. In the atmosphere carbon occurs in the form of carbon dioxide. </em>

By the process of carbon fixation this carbon dioxide is converted into carbon compounds and these act as source of energy in an ecosystem.

Photosynthesis is an example of carbon fixation process. Other processes like chemo-synthesis also fix carbon. <em>Majority of carbon fixation takes place in marine environments.  </em>

one duplicated chromosome has two sister chromatids. in prophase of mitosis you see 18 duplicated chromosomes in a cell. this ce
Mice21 [21]

In the prophase of mitosis if 18 duplicated chromosomes are in a cell then the number of chromosomes in interphase is <u>9</u>.

A cell's growth and division are accompanied by a sequence of processes known as a cell cycle. A cell spends the majority of its time in what is known as interphase, where it develops, duplicates its chromosomes, and gets ready to divide. The cell then exits interphase, goes through mitosis, and finishes dividing.

A sister chromatid is one that has two identical copies of a chromosome that are connected by a common centromere during chromosome DNA replication. In other words, a sister chromatid can also be thought of as "one-half" of a chromosome that has been duplicated. A dyad is a pair of sister chromatids.

Sister chromatids, which are firmly connected at the centromere region of each chromosome, are created as a result of DNA replication during the S phase (synthesis phase). Each chromosome is a duplicate at this point and is made up of two sister chromatids.

24. Name two types of pathways that help a body maintain homeostasis, and an example of each.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively constant internal body processes. This is done in two ways

  • <em>Negative feedbacks</em>
  • <em>Positive feedbacks</em>

Negative feedback returns body processes back to normal after the process has been breached. An example is when the body temperature becomes too high or too low. At too high temperature, vasodilation of the skin's blood vessels occurs and more heat is lost to the surrounding from the skin, sweat is also produced by sweat glands and evaporation of the seat causes cooling. At too low temperature, vasoconstriction occurs leading to the conservation of more heat. The muscles also shake to generate more body heat

Positive feedback ensures that a breach of body processes reaches completion. An example is when a pregnant woman starts laboring. The increase in the amount of oxytocin in the blood leads to the contraction of the uterus consequently leading to the opening of the cervix. More and more oxytocin leads to more frequent and stronger contraction of the uterus untill the baby is born.
