Answer:

The North American fur trade was an industry and activity related to the acquisition, trade, exchange, and sale of animal furs in North America. Aboriginal peoples in Canada and Native Americans in the United States of various regions traded among themselves in the pre–Columbian Era. Europeans participated in the trade from the time of their arrival in the New World, extending the trade's reach to Europe. The French started trading in the 16th century, the English established trading posts on Hudson Bay in present-day Canada during the 17th century, while the Dutch had trade by the same time in New Netherland. North American fur trade was at its peak of economic importance in the 19th century, and involved the development of elaborate trade networks.

The fur trade became one of the main economic ventures in North America attracting competition among the French, British, Dutch, Spanish, and Russians. Indeed, in the early history of the United States, capitalizing on this trade, and removing the British stranglehold over it, was seen as a major economic objective. Many Native American societies across the continent came to depend on the fur trade as their primary source of income. By the mid-1800s changing fashions in Europe brought about a collapse in fur prices. The American Fur Company and some other companies failed. Many Native communities were plunged into long-term poverty and consequently lost much of the political influence they once had.

Drag the labels onto the equation to identify the inputs and outputs of cellular respiration.
marysya [2.9K]
<span>The inputs are also called reactants. In Cellular respiration, there are certain inputs in the form of glucose and oxygen. The outputs, generally known as the products, are water, carbon dioxide, and ATP molecules.

The general equation used to represent the inputs and outputs of cellular respiration is:

Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP + Heat + Energy

C₆H₁₂O₆ +6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + Energy (ATP+ Heat)</span>

Base your answer on the chemical equation shown in the diagram below and on your knowledge of biology.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A, B, and C, only

Explanation:

The amino group is the functional group of the form CH-NH₂ consisting of single bonds formed between hydrogen atoms, aryl groups, alkyl groups or two or more of such groups combined together bonded with a nitrogen atom. An amine is an organic compound that has an amino group in its composition or structure

Therefore, the amino group can be found in the molecules of A, B, and C only.

Dmitry [639]
1) B
    (I'm not so sure of this one) All of the other options have a steady impact on population regardless of the density of organisms except competition

2) D
    Increased carbon dioxide levels would not hinder plant growth, and tsunamis aren't really linked to carbon dioxide levels. Increased carbon dioxide is unlikely to lower the air temperature so only D is left.

3) A

4) Three properties of water that allow it to sustain life are that it is adhesive, it is a good solvent, and cohesion. Adhesion is important in situations such as water travelling up xylem tubes in plants so that the water is not pulled down by gravity and can reach parts of the plant that need water. Cohesion allows the water being pulled up the xylem to stay together and for water molecules to be pulled when a neighbouring one is moved. Water being a good solvent allows inorganic minerals to be taken with water through vascular tissue, such as in the previous example.
