Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas. It is done by passing an electric current through the water.
Answer:
midbrain, medulla, and pons
Explanation:
The brainstem (also known as truncus encephali) is localized in the posterior part of the brain, in the base between cerebral hemispheres and the cervical cord. <em>It's divided into three parts, the midbrain or mesencephalon, the pons or mesencephalon, and the medulla oblongata also known as long medulla or myelencephalon.</em> <em>In the image I added you can see the brainstem structure.</em>
Some of the brainstem functions include the regulation of respiratory and cardiac function, thermoregulation, and other functions related to vision, sleep, etc.

Answer:
The two abiotic conditions in the coral reef that contribute to the high biodiversity are:
- Temperature
- Sunlight
Whilst the abiotic factors are
- Plant and
- Bacteria
Explanation:
The coral reef which covers a space of 115,831 square miles (or 30 million hectares os space) is home to a rich diversity of aquatic life (plants and animals alike). Being the largest coral reef on earth a lot of attention is given to it to ensure that its health and functionality is preserved.
The above factors contribute immensely to the stability and operability of the great reef.
The coral reef abounds with many aquatic animals such as crabs, herbivorous fish, sea turtles, sea urchins etc Many of these feed off microscopic plants such as the phytoplankton (that is tiny plants) and microscopic animals referred to as zooplankton. The zooplankton in turn feed off microscopic plant, bacterioplankton and even other zooplankton.
It is easy to see that at the base of the food chain lies Phytoplankton and bacterioplankton. This group require sunlight to thrive.
The smaller herbivorous fish, crabs, sea turtles and urchins on the other hand, constitute food for larger animals such as sharks, Baracuda etc.
It is also important to note that these microscopic life (plant and animals) require a certain temperature to thrive. If the water body in these eco system were to exceed a certain temperature, it is highly doubtful that they would survive. The death the the plant and animal life at the base of the food chain will completely disrupt the entire biodiversity and may even lead to its extinction.

The correct answer is phospholipid / lipids.
All of the pairs represent the combination of macromolecules with their basic units.
In the case of lipids, basic building blocks are free fatty acids, not phospholipids. Phospholipids are a class of lipids composed of two hydrophobic fatty acid "tails" and a hydrophilic "head" consisting of a phosphate group which are joined together by a glycerol molecule.
