The energy required to drive nutrient cycling is obtained by processes occurring in the biosphere. The primary source of energy for ecosystem processes is photosynthesis. Directly or indirectly, photosynthesis provides the energy for all forms of life in the biosphere. Photosynthesis utilizes energy from the sun to reduce CO2 into high energy organic compounds. Subsequently, the energy contained in these organic compounds is released by the process of respiration. The respiration process releases energy by oxidizing the high energy bonds of the organic compounds, the energy released being used to perform all the metabolic processes of biota.

Answer:

The answer is 6.8 meters.

Explanation:

During the S phase of the cell replication, the DNA is doubled before the division of the cell which means that it is twice it's original length.

At 0.34 nanometers, 3 billion base pairs (3.000.000.000) comes up to 3.4 meters and during the S phase the length is doubled so it is 6.8 meters long.

I hope this answer helps.

NARA [144]

Answer:

The original organism is called the parent (ancestor) , and new organisms are called the offspring.

Explanation:

Reproduction is one of the characteristics of life. Every living organism tends to give rise to another organism. The organism which gives rise to another organism is termed as the parent. The organism which is born is known as the offspring.

There are two basic methods of reproduction. An organism can give rise to another organism by the method of asexual or sexual reproduction.

During asexual reproduction, identical copies of the parent organism are made. During sexual reproduction, two organisms reproduce to produce non-identical offsprings.
