What do you notice about the ecological footprint of the United States compared to other countries?

Biology
1 answer:
Anton [14]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It's large compared to other countries, but only because of consumerism

Explanation:

The United States is the 5th largest ecological footprint in the world, with about half the population contributing to that factor, however this is only because the United States runs specifically on capitalism and consumerism, so every citizen contributes one way or another. America uses high energy and fossil fuel consumption with high functioning biological resources in carbon cycling. So although comparing California to France (because California has a larger footprint.), it's not a fair comparision due to technology

Which one of the choices below can be used to correctly complete the following sentence? "All _____ have a plasma membrane."
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

B. Cells

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is one of the essential structural and functional components of all the cells. It maintains the cell's interior and regulates the entry and exit of substances into and out of the cells. Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have a plasma membrane.

Plasma membrane forms the outer most covering of an animal cell. Plant cells and bacterial cells have a cell wall outside the plasma membrane. Irrespective of the cell type, the plasma membrane is made up of a bilayer of phospholipids with a hydrophobic core. Several proteins are embedded in the lipid bilayer.

why do plant cells occasionally switch from noncyclic electron flow (nef) to cyclic electron flow (cef)?
Blizzard [7]

Creating a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane in higher plants uses cyclic electron flow (CEF), which primarily serves two purposes: (1) producing ATP and balancing the ATP/NADPH energy budget; and (2) defending photosystems I and II from photoinhibition.

ATP and NADPH are produced by noncyclic electron transport. The single product of cyclic electron transport was ATP. Both steps are required by a plant to produce the required amount of ATP for the Calvin Cycle. The electrons are released by photosystem I and then brought back into the system during cyclic photophosphorylation. However, in non-cyclic photophosphorylation, the electrons that the photosystems emit do not come back.
