<h3>Answer;</h3>

b) cycle both carbon and oxygen

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are complementary processes by which living things obtain needed substances.

They both consume and create the same substances (water, glucose, oxygen, and carbon dioxide) but in different ways.
Photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP. The glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis.
While water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.

MariettaO [177]

Answer: 1. Any chemical compound that contains carbon - organic.

2. a liquid that acts to dissolve or suspend substances - solvent

3. a chemical compound that doesn't contain carbon - inorganic

4. a substance that is dissolved in a liquid - solute.

Explanation: Organic compounds are compounds that contain carbon, and mostly contain hydrogen.

Inorganic compounds are compounds that do not contain carbon.

A solute is a substance which is present in smaller proportions and dissolves or suspends in a liquid called solvent, which is present in larger proportions. The solute and the solvent together form a solution.

The correct option is this: KLINEFELTER SYNDROME, WHERE A MALE HAS TWO X AND ONE Y CHROMOSOME.
Karyotype is a technique that is used to diagnose genetic disorders. This method allows for the examination of the chromosomes. A karyotype test examines dividing cells and take note of how the pairs of chromosomes are arranged by their size and appearance. This helps to determine if any chromosome is missing or damaged.

All of the following statements regarding the pathogens that cause tetanus, anthrax, and botulism are correct except:

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

b. all three pathogens are obligate anaerobes.

Explanation:

Tetanus is caused by an exotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium tetani, which is normally found in the soil, although it may be present in the intestines of mammals. It is an anoxic and spore-forming bacteria. It enters the body through wounds or deep punctures, finding in the wound the anoxic conditions to germinate its spores, producing its potent toxin.

Anthrax is caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis, which is a stationary and endospore-forming bacteria that is resistant to high temperatures and chemicals. It is a strictly aerobic bacterium and can be found naturally in the soil. Both animals and humans can breathe or ingest spores of this bacterium by consuming meat or contaminated water. When spores get into the body, their turn into active cells and produce exotoxins

Botulism is caused by the pathogen Clostridium botulinum, a strict anaerobic bacillus, producing endospores and 8 different types of toxins. Being a soil-borne bacterium, it usually appears in the food of animal and vegetable origin.
