The correct answer is - limestone.

On the image, it seems that we have a representation of rock formations in a cave. They are evidently weathering. According to the manifestation of the weathering, the color of the rocks, and that it is most probably a cave, the chances are mostly likely that it is a limestone.

The weathering appears as a result of the water. The limestone is a sedimentary type of rock, thus it doesn't have strong structure. The water is able to gradually penetrate through it, making holes in it, and little by little weather it. In this way we have the formation of the water reservoirs, springs, cave systems.

Why does the cell go through elaborate process to convert glucose into carbon dioxide and water?

Tems11 [23]

Cellular Respiration. Cellular respiration is the process of oxidizing food molecules, like glucose, to carbon dioxide and water. The energy released is trapped in the form of ATP for use by all the energy-consuming activities of the cell.

To which of the six crystal systems does a halite crystal( rock salt) belong?

otez555 [7]

A halite crystal belongs to the cubic crystal system. The other five crystal systems are monoclinic, triclinic, orthorhombic, tetragonal, and hexagonal.
The cubic crystal system is characterised by the way the atoms in the mineral are arranged in the three dimensional shape of a cube. The halite crystal has this shape. Attached is an image of it.

Do you think it is possible for scientists to incorporate chloroplasts into the skin cells of humans? What would this mean for h

Alisiya [41]

Similarly to mitochondria on which the animals and fungi rely upon, the chloroplasts are the solar-power plants of the plant cell. With the advancement in the field of genetics and biotechnology, it may be feasible for scientists to incorporate chloroplasts into human skin cells. However, there may be few issues, which the human beings would have to encounter with, these are as follows:

1. The immune system of the humans may attack the chloroplasts, but maybe they would be safe if they are present within the cell.

2. As the skin of the humans would be undergoing the process of photosynthesis, then they would have to be in green color, thus, the melanocytes of the skin would have to be engineered in order to generate another pigment.

3. The humans may get skin cancer and sunburns when they would be out feeding on sunlight, that is, the ultraviolet part of the sunlight would cause the destruction of the living cells.

4. In order to undergo the reaction of photosynthesis, the humans would require more water than usually required by a normal human being, and this could be a disadvantage in a desert surrounding.

5. The process would not help to generate much energy for an active species like humans, as the daily energy requirements for a human being would be attained by absorbing around 10000 kJ of energy, that is, around 150 hours in a day of sitting in the Sun, which is impossible.
