Biology

Sindrei [870]4 years ago

Answer:

Net Primary Production = Gross Primary Production - Respiration

Explanation:

  1. <u>Gross Primary Production (GPP)</u> = The total amount of chemical energy that is expressed as carbon biomass created by primary producers in unit time.
  2. <u>Respiration (R)</u> = A fraction of fixed amount of energy that is used by primary producers for the cellular respiration and maintenance of existing tissues.
  3. <u>Net Primary Production (NPP)</u> = The remaining amount of the fixed energy.

Therefore, the equation that shows the relationship between gross and net primary production is,

<em>Net Primary Production (NPP) = Gross Primary Production (GPP) - Respiration (R)</em>

Net primary production is the amount of energy that remains behind after the consumption of some fraction of energy in respiration from the gross primary production.

On what basis are enzymes classified and named?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Enzymes are classified and named according to the<u> types of reactions they catalyze.</u>

Explanation:

According to the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology nomenclature of enzyme classification, enzymes are classified depending upon the reactions they catalyze and how the reaction transforms the substrate and forms new products.

Based on the reactions:

Addition reaction (removal of a water molecule): hydrases or hydrolases like esterases, nucleases etc

Electron transfer reaction: Oxidases and dehydrogenases

Radical transfer reaction: Transglycosidases, transaminases, etc

Splitting or C-C bond formation: Desmolases

Structural or geometrical change: Isomerases

Hydrolysis of phosphate bonds to join molecules: Ligases

Based on the general principle of recommendations, enzymes are suffixed with –ase  depending upon the catalytic reaction and substrate.

What is meant my urbanization and industrialization? How they degrade the environment ​
Whitepunk [10]
Urbanization is defined as “the process of making an area more urban” or an increase in the amount of people living in towns or cities. Industrialization is defined as “the development of industries in a country or region on a wide scale” meaning a strong military with modern weapons, factories to create things, modern cars and boats etc. Urbanization and industrialization put a strain on the environment because of carbon gases emitted, effectively warming the earth up, destruction of trees which lowers our overall oxygen available, destruction of animal homes which will kill animals or cause unwanted interactions between humans and animals, and the pollution of natural resources such as local ponds, streams or the ocean.
