The correct options are as follows:
1. C
Homeostasis is the process by which living organisms maintains constant internal environment. Maintaining homeostasis is very important because the survival of the living organism depend on it. In order to maintain homeostasis, the amount of wastes, nutrients and water that is in an organism must be controlled and maintained at optimum level.
2. A.
An organism that can not maintain an homeostasis will die. This is because, lack of homeostasis will disrupt the biochemical reactions which sustains the life activities of the organism and once the biochemical reactions that produce life energy can no longer take place the organism will die.
3. A.
For both unicellular and multi cellular organisms, when they are exposed to water containing no salt, much of the water will move into their cells. This happened because, the level of salt in the interior of the living cells is higher and so the water will move from the medium which has no salt to the inside to the cell where there is salt. This process is known as osmosis. In osmosis water move through a semi permeable membrane from the region of low salt concentration level to the region of higher salt level concentration.
4. D.
Cells in living organisms are able to maintain homeostasis by specializing in specific functions and by working together in cooperatively. Each cell has its own functions which it performs; in the process of its duty, it communicates with other cells which also help it in order to achieve common goals, which is maintenance of homeostasis within the cell.
Water had the capability to hold up the thin overhang of the underground.
When water is depleted, there is nothing to support this overhang, which eventually led to the formation of sinkholes.
As for the collective behavior, it's all because of the scarcity. Water is one of human's basic needs to survive. When water is scarce, this will force the people to compete with one another to obtain it, which will cause the behavior
Answer: An inherited trait that makes an individual different from other members of its species is called a variation.
Both light-dependent and light-independed reactions of photosynthesis are similar in a way because they both require chemical energy to proceed.
Photosynthesis occurs in two successive stages. These stages are:
1) The light-dependent reactions
2) The light-independent reactions
The light dependent reactions absorb energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy. The chemical energy produced (ATP) by the light-dependent reactions is used by the light-independent reactions for it to function properly. The remaining chemical energy (ADP) in the light-independent reactions is returned to the light-dependent reactions to obtain more energized electrons.
