How do earth's spheres interact to cause weather/climate?

The atmosphere transfers heat energy and moisture across the Earth. Incoming solar radiation (insolation) is redistributed from areas in which there is a surplus of heat (the equator) to areas where there is a heat deficit (the North and South Pole). This is achieved through a series of atmospheric cells: the Hadley cell, the Ferrel cell and the Polar cell (Figure 2). These operate in a similar way to, and indeed interact with, the ocean conveyor.

For example, as the oceans at low latitudes are heated, water evaporates and is transported poleward as water vapour. This warm air eventually cools and subsides. Changes in temperature and CO2 concentrations can lead to: changes in the size of atmospheric cells (in particular, the Hadley cell is susceptible to these alterations); warming in the troposphere; and disproportionately strong warming in Arctic regions. The strong interactions between ocean and atmospheric dynamics, and the significant feedback mechanisms between them, mean that climate researchers must consider these Earth components as interlinked systems. The necessity to assess ocean-atmospheric changes at the global scale has implications for the way in which research is conducted. It is only by integrating palaeo evidence of past changes, with present day monitoring, and projected models,

Lady_Fox [76]

The correct answer is:


CO2 diffuses passively out of the cell. O2 in respiration is converted to water. O2 diffuses in to the cell.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the chemical reaction in which glucose and oxygen are converted into water, carbon dioxide, and energy (ATP). In this reaction, glucose and oxygen are reactants, while water, carbon dioxide, and energy (ATP) are products. Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to change biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate and then discharge waste products.

The fuzzy coat made of glycoproteins and glycolipids found on the external surface of the plasma membrane is called the ________
Alina [70]

Answer:

Glycocalyx

Explanation:

Glycocalyx is carbohydrate rich (glycoprotein + glycolipid) coating that is found in outer surface of cell membrane of many prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells specially bacteria.

Glycoprotein=Carbohydrate + Protein

Glycolipids=  Carbohydrate + Lipids

Glycocalyx provied a barrier between cell and its surrounding, adhesion and provide protection in bacteria. In eukaryotes it can be used to identify cells.
