Photosynthesis is a process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates, and other biological compounds, which reduces the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. This is the difference between plants and animals. The carbon dioxide is stored in the plants until they decompose or are burned. So, for example, each fall when the trees lose their leaves and the plants die the level of carbon in the atmosphere goes up. The rest of the tree, bark etc., does not continue to absorb carbon. Plants only take in carbon so long as they are growing and not after they have reached their natural height. Planting trees and other plants is one component of the solution to global warming, but the number of plants we have now cannot consume more carbon than they already do, and there is some evidence that warmer temperatures make photosynthesis more difficult.
The answer is RESPIRATION
The mass (in grams) of NaCl required to prepare the solution is 36.27 g
<h3>What is molarity?</h3>
Molarity is defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of solution. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:
Molarity = mole / Volume
<h3>How to determine the mole of NaCl</h3>
- Volume = 200 mL = 200 / 1000 = 0.2 L
- Molarity = 3.1 M
- Mole of NaCl =?
The mole of NaCl in the solution can be obtained as follow:
Molarity = mole / Volume
Cross multiply
Mole = Molarity x Volume
Mole of NaCl = 3.1 × 0.2
Mole of NaCl = 0.62 mole
<h3>How to determine the mass of NaCl </h3>
We can obtain the mass of NaCl needed to prepare the solution as follow:
- Molar mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mol
- Mole of NaCl = 0.62 mole
- Mass of NaCl = ?
Mole = mass / molar mass
Cross multiply
Mass = mole × molar mass
Mass of NaCl = 0.62 × 58.5
Mass of NaCl = 36.27 g

Several hours after your last meal, declining blood glucose levels stimulate release of the hormone <u>glucagon</u> , which stimulates glycogenolysis, lipolysis and fat mobilization, and gluconeogenesis.
<h3>How does glucagon stimulate gluconeogenesis?</h3>
The biological process through which glycogen degrades into glucose and glucose-1-phosphate is known as glycogenolysis. Hepatocytes and myocytes both participate in the response. Two important enzymes, glycogen phosphorylase and phosphorylase kinase, control the process.
By increasing the activity of hepatic adipose triglyceride lipase, intrahepatic lipolysis, hepatic acetyl-CoA content, and pyruvate carboxylase flux, as well as increasing mitochondrial fat oxidation, glucagon stimulates hepatic gluconeogenesis. All of these actions are mediated by stimulation of the inositol kinase.

Answer:
The offsprings of this punnet square will be Dd, Dd, dd and dd in a ratio 1Dd : 1dd
See attached image for punnet square completion
Explanation:
This question involves a cross involving a single gene with alleles D and d where allele D is dominant over allele d i.e. D will mask the phenotypic expression of d in a heterozygous state.
This cross is between a heterozygous parent (Dd) and a homozygous recessive parent (dd). Parent Dd will produce gametes D and d while parent dd will produce gametes d and d.
Using these gametes in a punnet square, four possible offsprings with two distinct genotypes will be produced. The genotypes are: Dd and dd in a ratio 1:1
Hence, the possibility of having a heterozygous dominant offspring is 1/2 while the possibility of having a homozygous recessive offspring is also 1/2.
