Chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) are born in freshwater environments and then migrate to the sea. Near the end of their lives, th

ey return to the freshwater stream where they were born to spawn. In fresh water, water constantly diffuses into the body and ions are lost from the body. In salt water, body water diffuses out of the body and excess ions are gained from the water. A salmon's gills have special cells to pump salt in or out of the body to maintain homeostasis. In response to the salmon's moves between fresh water and salt water, some cells in the gills are produced and others are destroyed. These changes made in the cells of the gills during the lifetime of an individual salmon are an example of which of the following?
A) evolution
B) trade-off
C) acclimatization
D) adaptation
E) luck

Answer:

Acclimatization

Explanation:

Acclimatization is the change in the body of an organism in response to changes in the environment to maintain equilibrium (homeostasis). In the case of the salmon, when the environment changes from fresh to salt water and back, the chemical homeostasis would be altered if the fish didn't adjust. The adjustments in the fish gills are the response of the fish to acclimatize to the changes in the chemical environment in order to maintain homeostasis.

-. Describe how ATP can release and store energy<br> for the cell.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

ATP consists of an adenosine molecule

bonded to three phophate groups in a row.

In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP.

This occurs when a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) uses the energy released during cellular respiration to bond with a third phosphate group, becoming a molecule of ATP. So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Glucose

Explanation:

After reading the overview of cellular respiration, the primary or initial fuel of respiration should be clear - it's glucose, which is the molecule of sugar that plants create for animals (as well as the plant itself) to utilize as an energy source.

If Harry's negligent act injures Sally, and Susan, while attempting to come to Sally's aid breaks her arm in the process then, H
kumpel [21]

Answer: Sally

If Harry's negligent act injures Sally, and Susan, while attempting to come to Sally's aid breaks her arm in the process then, Harry is liable for the harm to Sally.

Explanation:

As a mathematical expression, we can say the action of Harry H, is directly proportional to the injury to Sally S; while the mistake of Susan N is directly proportional to injury to Sally S.

So, if H = S and N = S, it is safe to say

H = N = S.

Thus, Harry negligence create room for Susan mistake, which eventually harmed Sally.
