Answer:

rons swords are made of iron and so they oxidize (a fancy word for rust), the process entails the metal absorbing oxygen from the air to create a new compound (rust).

Irons swords are made of iron and so they oxidize (a fancy word for rust), the process entails the metal absorbing oxygen from the air to create a new compound (rust).

On the other hand, jewelry would probably be made out of silver or gold and gems. These metals do not rust in the same way iron does. When silver oxidizes over time it form a protective barrier of already oxidized silver on the outside of the piece of metal -- this has a preservation effect. (And by the way, you should almost note that polishing silver actually removes a tiny bit of silver from the outside of the piece, thus removing the oxidized (tarnished) metal.)

<u><em>The glucose (sugar or plants food) is then converted back into carbon dioxide which is vital during photosynthesis. This therefore means that when stomata is blocked photosynthesis will stop because the CO₂ level will decline within the leaf, stopping the reactions that are light-independent.</em></u>

Which are tunics (layers) that make up the gastrointestinal wall?
AlekseyPX

The gastrointestinal wall is composed of four layers or tunics:

  • Mucosa
  • Submucosa
  • Muscularis mucosa
  • Serosa

The innermost tunic of the wall is known as the mucosa or mucous membrane layer. The digestive tract's lumen is lined with it. The mucosa comprises epithelium, a layer of lamina propria, a loose layer of connective tissue, and the muscularis mucosa, a thin layer of smooth muscle.

The mucosa is surrounded by a substantial layer of loose connective tissue known as the submucosa. Blood arteries, lymphatic vessels, and neurons are also present in this stratum. The adventitia is a connective tissue that makes up the digestive tract's outermost layer above the diaphragm. It is referred to as serosa below the diaphragm.

In which of the vegetation is farming difficult?
EleoNora [17]

<span>Densely covered areas like rainforests are poor areas for agriculture. This is because of the soil composition of the land where soils are usually acidic and they contain low levels of minerals and other nutrients necessary for mass production of crops in agriculture. This type of vegetation has a very unique form of nutrient cycle that can’t be good for crops.</span>
