The natural extinction rate defines background extinction

<u>Explanation:</u>

Extinction endured primarily control of paleontology. Background extinctions are the continuous importance of common environmental variations, local disasters, or inter species conflict. Background extinction is principally a local appearance. It happens only one or a few species at any time, habitually inside a distinct area.

Ecologists measure that the present-day extinction rate is 1,000 to 10,000 times the background extinction rate between one and five species per year because of deforestation, environment loss, over hunting, pollution, climate modification, and other human activities.

A student claims that cellular respiration is essential to cells so that they have a means for getting rid of excess carbon diox
Romashka [77]

1. Cellular respiration does not consume carbon dioxide (CO2).

Cellular respiration is a process by which plants produce energy. It consists of anaerobic (without O2) and aerobic phase(with the presence of O2). During the cellular respiration chemical energy derived from the nutrients (like glucose) is transformed into energy molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

2. Unlike photosynthesis, cellular respiration occurs in all eukaryotic organisms (photosynthesis only in plants and some microorganisms). The processes of cellular respiration occur in cytosol (glycolysis) and in the mitochondrion of a cell (Krebs cycle and electron transport chain).
