Good afternoon!

Answer-

The scale of a map is the ratio of a distance on the map to the corresponding distance on the ground. This simple concept is complicated by the curvature of the Earth's surface, which forces scale to vary across a map.

Have a nice day!

Describe two distinct aspects on how photorespiration can adversely impact life on the planet.
Volgvan

Answer:

<u>photorespiration </u>also called as the <u>photosynthesis </u>of plant metabolisms,

Explanation:

  • Green plants use enzymes and carbon dioxide on sunlight to create oxygen through this process by recycling of carbon and nitrogen as ammonia.
  • Conditions that impact the process are the lowering of Carbon dioxide and the increase in Oxygen in air, another aspect is the rise in temperature that determines the presence of these gases.
  • Thus reducing the concentration of carbon and increasing oxygen in the chloroplast. Reducing the amount of photorespiration does not result in increased growth rates of plants. Photorespiration increases the availability of nitrates in the soil which can increase carbon dioxide in the air and increase pant growth.
  • The deficient in photorespiratory enzymes can be characterized by a high level of fat in the cell and impaired stomatal regulation in plants.

The main factor that changes rocks during contact metamorphism is both heat and pressure, but if had to choose one I would select pressure. When shale undergoes metamorphism it becomes slate!</span>
