There are about 11,200,000 billion metric tons of O2 in the atmosphere. Based on an estimated photosynthesis rate of 600 billion

metric tons per year, how many years might it have taken to reach current O2 levels? (Note: Assume for this exercise that the rate of O2 production is constant even though it has changed over time.)

Answer:

t=18666.7years

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the rate at which oxygen is produced via photosynthesis is:

600 \frac{billion\ metric\ tons}{year}

Since the desired amount is 11,200,000 billion metric tons, the required time is:

t=\frac{11,200,000billion\ metric\ tons}{600 \frac{billion\ metric\ tons}{year}} \\\\t=18666.7years

Best regards.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Option-D

Explanation:

Plasmodesmata are the plasma membrane lined pores present in the cells of the plants. Inside these pores runs a closed tubelike structure which is an extension of the endoplasmic reticulum.

The plasmodesmata allows cell to cell communication which involves symplast mode of transport that is through its cytoplasm.

The small water soluble molecules like amino acid and sugars can easily pass through these plasmodesmata via diffusion. The large molecules can be transported through these plamodesmata through selective diffusion.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.
