Answer:
A. S phase
Explanation:
The cell cycle involves all the series of division events that occurs to an organism. Cell division, which can be meiosis or mitosis, involves two main stages viz: Interphase and M phase.
Interphase describes the resting stage of the cell i.e. when the cell is not dividing. The cell uses this time to prepare itself for the next round of division. Interphase stage further consists of three main phases viz: G1, S and G2 phases.
In the S phase or synthesis phase of Interphase, the cell duplicates its genetic material (DNA). Hence, an onion cell observed by a student to have loosely coiled chromatin depicting DNA duplication is in the S-PHASE.
Fungi is one type of pathogen which infects the surface of the skin and nails.
Athletes foot is also caused by fungi
Answer:
C. Larger compounds break down into two or more smaller compounds.
Explanation:
During a decomposition reaction, the bonds between the atoms break down in the starting substance. The atoms then rearrange to form new bonds, resulting in new substances with properties different from the starting material.
The increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere creates a greenhouse effect.
To explain this usually some sunlight is reflected back into space while some is absorbed by the earth keeping the planet warm. However the increase in greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide prevent the light from reflecting back into space and this light becomes trapped causing the earth to heat more then it should. You can almost think of the trapped heat from the greenhouse gases as a blanket around the earth trapping the heat in.
