b) invention of the mercury thermometer by Daniel Fahrenheit in 1714
c) first temperature recording by an orbiting weather satellite in 1979
d) use of ocean-going vessels to measure marine air temperatures in 2000
Answer:
<u>b) invention of the mercury thermometer by Daniel Fahrenheit in 1714</u>
Explanation:
The definition of climate would lack proper understanding if not for the invention by Daniel Fahrenheit in 1714. Historians agree that Daniel's mercury thermometer allowed many other researchers to understand how much temperature existed in a particular environment or climate.

Answer AND Explanation:
A variety of organic and inorganic compounds serve very important roles in living things. The various organic compounds constitute the structures of the body and regulate the chemical processes going on inside it.
Carbohydrates are essential for life since they are oxidised during respiration to release energy. Glucose is the most common respiratory substrate. They are also building blocks of polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose in plants and glycogen in animals.
Lipids are important because they can be oxidized during respiration to release energy. They provide twice the amount of energy for the same weight of carbohydrates. They also act as insulators, source of metabolic water and are major components of cell membranes.
Proteins are important structural components of the cytoplasm and various supportive tissues in the body, transport substances, make up hormones and are used as a source of energy through respiration.
