Answer: Carbon is one of the essential gases in nature,couple of natural processes causes the release of carbon. Some of the processes include;
- When the remains of producers are broken down by decomposers in the ecosystem.
- When animals break down food molecules to obtain energy, carbon is released.
- When the remains of consumers in the ecosystem are broken down by soil decomposers, carbon is released.
Answer:
The transfer of mature pollen grain from anther of the flower to the stigma of the same flower of the same [species is called self pollination.
Generally, the transfer of pollen grains by wind,animals,and water to stigmas is called pollination. It is a means of vegetative propagation which ensures reproduction.
Therefore during self pollination, the same genes are distributed from one generation to another. Thus genetic purity is ensured. It also ensured reproductive success. because there is little chance of the pollen grain getting lost in transit. It is also certain a particular plant would always breed true.
Additionally it prevent the process of transfer of genes in some transgenic crops( rice, maize) where through genetic engineering some genes are introduced in their genome.
The only negative effect is lack of genetic diversity. Therefore after a period of time the plants get weak and prone to diseases and infection. Because of poor resistant from lack of variation.

Answer:
Hydrogen Bond
Explanation:
Hydrogen bonds allow two molecules to link together temporarily. Water molecules are made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, held together by polar covalent bonds. The polarity of the water molecule is what gives water its unique properties.
8. (F) Facilitated diffusion: For water to travel across the cell membrane at a substantial rate, the water molecules travel through protein channels known as aquaporins.
9. (S) Simple diffusion: While water molecules are polar, they are also very small. One fact not mentioned in the video is that some water molecules are able to squeeze directly through the phospholipid bilayer due to their small size.
10. (S) Simple diffusion: Charged ions are traveling through a cell membrane with the concentration gradient.
11. (A) Active transport: Cells lining the gut need to take in glucose, but at a certain time, the concentration of extracellular glucose is lower than the concentration already stored in the cells.
12.(F) Facilitated diffusion: At a certain time, glucose is in a high concentration outside of a cell and needs to travel through the membrane into the cell.
The above choices are made based on the basic definitions of active transport, facilitated diffusion and simple diffusion.
Active transport: The movement of the ions or molecules to a region having higher concentration across the membrane requiring the help of energy or enzymes is active transport.
Facilitated diffusion: This type of transport involves passive movement of the molecules or is a type of passive transport where the movement of the molecules takes place from higher to lower concentration region occurs with the aid of a carrier molecule such as a transport or carrier protein.
Simple diffusion: This process involves movement of ions or molecules from high concentration region to low concentration region through a semipermeable membrane.
<span>Wetlands improve water quality by all of the above. Filtration, distillation and osmosis are all process of filtering. Thus these given choices are all results of wetlands water quality.,</span>
