Answer:

The processes that are part of the rapid carbon cycle are: photosynthesis, respiration, digestion, decomposition and combustion.

Explanation:

The processes that are part of the rapid carbon cycle are: photosynthesis, respiration, digestion, decomposition and combustion.

The main process involving living beings is that of photosynthesis. In it the photosynthetic autotrophic organisms remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and eliminate, during the process, oxygen, which will be used by some living beings in the breathing process. In photosynthesis, the carbon removed from the atmosphere will be used in the manufacture of organic molecules.

The organic molecules will be passed, from one living being to another, through the food chain and web, that is, the molecules will pass in such a way that the feeding relationships are being established. Producing organisms, such as plants, manufacture their organic matter in the process of photosynthesis, while consumers acquire organic molecules when they feed on other living beings.

While in the process of photosynthesis living beings guarantee the removal of carbon dioxide from the environment, in the breathing process the carbon dioxide returns to nature. In addition, the return of carbon to the medium also occurs due to the decomposition process, which is responsible for the release of carbon dioxide and water.

Carbon is also released into the environment due to human action, which has been responsible for higher than normal levels of carbon dioxide. This increase is due to the use of fossil fuels and deforestation, for example.

Luda [366]

Answer:

If we could see your choices, it would better help us to help you.

Explanation:

But, if you are referring to the most widely accepted theory:

Anthropogenic (man-made) Global Warming, or AGW. The theory states that man-made greenhouse gases, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2 ), are the predominant cause for the global warming that has occurred during the past 50 years.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Plant A listens to classical music for three hours each day

Explanation:

Music affect plant growth of plants through the vibrations that it creates to the sound waves.Classical music causes more pressure to the sound waves causing vigorous vibrations which is picked up by the plants speeding up the protoplasmic movement in the cells.

The vibrations causes movement of the plant cells which speed up growth of the plants by stimulating the plants to produce more nutrients enabling them to germinate having more leaves,greater in size and other improved characteristics which means the plant's genetic chromosomes were changed.

Also in the soil is able to produce good fungi and bacteria encouraging better root development due to healthy vines resulting to vigorous growth and better fruit.

Moreover the plants are able to receive special attention and care from the farmer thus enhancing faster growth.

Number the following steps in the correct order and tell which stage it occurs in:

zimovet [89]

Answer:

d. Genetic material replicates and is joined at the centromere ----- INTERPHASE

b. Chromosomes line up at the equator and chromatids are attached to spindle fibers---- METAPHASE

e. Centromeres divide and single-stranded chromosomes move to the poles ---- ANAPHASE

c. Nuclear membrane and nucleolus reappear ---- TELOPHASE

a. A cleavage furrow or cell plate forms, separating the nuclei ---- CYTOKINESIS

Explanation:

This question depicts the events that occur in the cell cycle. The cell cycle begins with the preparatory phase called INTERPHASE and stops at the cytoplasm division called CYTOKINESIS. The correct order of the options in this question are:

1. D - The genetic material (DNA) replicates at the Interphase stage, specifically the Synthesis phase. The DNA replication is one of the steps the cell takes during the Interphase to prepare itself for division. The replication of DNA forms a structure called SISTER CHROMATIDS, which are replicated chromosomes held at the Centromere.

2. B - After the Interphase stage, comes the actual division (Mitosis). This option shows what occurs in the Metaphase stage of Mitosis. The spindle microtubules attaches to the kinetochore of each chromosome (sister chromatids) and they become aligned at the equator/middle of the cell.

3. E -- This option shows the occurrences in the Anaphase stage of Mitosis. The aligned chromosomes are separated and pulled apart towards opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibres. Each pole contains a single strand chromatid of a pair. This is actually the essence of the replication process in Interphase stage.

4. C -- After the division of the nuclear material (chromosomes), a process called KARYOKINESIS, the important structures begin to reform in each pole of the cell during the Telophase stage. Prior to separation of chromosomes at the Anaphase stage, the membrane that bounds the nucleus called NUCLEAR MEMBRANE alongside the nucleolus is degraded in order for the spindle microtubules to assess the chromosomes. These structures form at each pole during Telophase stage.

5. A -- After karyokinesis (division of nuclear material), the cytoplasmic content of the cell needs to separate into two in a process called Cytokinesis. Cytokinesis occurs differently in plant and animal cells. Plant cells forms a cell plate due to their cell wall while Animal cells form a cleavage furrow at the equator of the cell.
