Your carbon atom enters the leaf as CO2 (carbon dioxide) from the atmosphere. <span>In the leaf, chlorophyll uses the energy from the sun to convert CO2 and H2O to the sugar glucose, C6H12O6. Your carbon atom is part of this molecule; it is now one of the carbons in the glucose. </span>
<span>Next, the glucose carrying your carbon atom is sent down the phloem tissue of the carrot plant to the root, which is the carrot itself. </span><span>Enzymes in the carrot root connect the glucose molecule with your carbon atom into a chain with other glucose molecules, forming cellulose, or plant starch, and there you go. Your carbon atom went from being part of an atmospheric gas to a starch via photosynthesis and starch formation in the root. </span>

Answer:
Hope the below helps!
Explanation:
Greenhouse gases (such as methane, carbon dioxide etc) have lots of vibrating particles. These molecules eventually release radiation, which travels up Earth's atmosphere (because warm air rises), is trapped and adds to the greenhouse gas effect.
Oxygen and nitrogen don't interfere with infrared waves in the atmosphere. That's because molecules are picky about the range of wavelengths that they interact with.
I have attached a diagram that shows the greenhouse effect. It might help to visualise this.
You should test your hypothesis.
Answer:
Semi-permeable membrane
Explanation:
In semi-permeable membranes, only some substances can pass through. Sometimes, some can also pass through the channel protein molecules or transport proteins on the cell membrane.
The cell cycle, or cell-division cycle, is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication of its DNA (DNA replication) to produce two daughter cells.
