  • Balance Spring etc

2. A clock is a non-living system.

Living systems have certain characteristics. Some of them are:

  • Stimuli: Response to the environment
  • Growth and development: The are able to increase in size and dimensions
  • Homeostasis: this is the capability of self-regulation regardless of external conditions such as temperature and pressure.   etc

3. A cannot support a living system. It can however help a human being (which is essentially a combination of various systems) to tell the time.

Which is a major by product of respiration? Choose the correct answer.
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks options, however, it can be answered. The answer is:

CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2)

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which glucose is broken down in an organism's cell to release energy. Although the process involves series of reactions, however, the general equation is as follows;

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ➡ 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy

Based on the above equation, the inputs are glucose and oxygen while the outputs are carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the major byproduct of the respiration process.
