Which process led to the release of large amounts of carbon dioxide at the end of the Devonian period?

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The Devonian period represents the fourth period of the Paleozoic era, ranging from about 420 million years to 360 million years back. This period represents the age of fishes because a variety of fish species were present and also during this time, the plants that colonized on the land areas started undergoing evolution giving rise to the formation of gymnosperms.

By the end of this period, about 360 million years ago, massive and rapid volcanic eruptions took place, that released an extensively large amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This eventually lead to a mass extinction event, eliminating nearly 80% of the total living species present on earth.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Which statement is an example of cell division at work?
dybincka [34]

Explanation:

C. A cut in skin heals

This process involves wound healing and tissue regeneration of somatic cells via mitosis.

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. To produce daughter cells during cell division, the chromosomes (total number of chromosomes (2n)) are copied before the cell splits into two daughter cells.

This process is known as mitosis, and occurs in cell division and growth processes. Two new nuclei are formed, along with identical cells. These are the same as the parent cell and the chromosome number (2n) is maintained. This process occurs regularly in somatic cells for growth, or  to repair damaged tissue.

The energy required to run the Calvin cycle reactions of photosynthesis comes from which two substances produced during the ligh
Lelu [443]

Answer:

a. ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

Light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis include splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and release of electrons. The electrons move from the reaction center of the PS-II via electron carriers to the PS-I. From the reaction center of PS-I, the electrons finally reach NADP reductase and reduce NADP into NADPH.

During this electron transfer via electron carriers, a proton concentration gradient is generated across the thylakoid membrane. The energy of this gradient is used to drive ATP synthesis. ATP and NADPH formed during the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis are then used during the reactions of the Calvin cycle.

What two words best describe bacterial reproduction? Why?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: Bacteria reproduce through a process called binary fission. During binary fission, the chromosome copies itself, forming two genetically identical copies. Then, the cell enlarges and divides into two new daughter cells. The two daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.
