It means that they all share DNA and the 4 bases Adenine Thymine Cytosine Guanine and use the same system of cell production. (Smaller answer. Not too sure, though! ^_^

When scientists say they share a universal genetic code it means that all organisms it can mean either DNA as the main source of hereditary information in all life forms we know of  or more likely that all organisms we know of use a three base pair code for the synthesis of proteins, DNA produces mRNA. This mRNA is read three base pairs at a time by a ribosome and this is called the genetic code.

The statement is true. Dead zones are the zones of oxygen depletion, which is caused by excessive running off of the fertilizers into the water body. These chemicals, particularly the nitrates, which are used by algae etc. which bloom by using the nitrates and use the oxygen present in the water.

1. The best answer is Stomata takes in carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Photosynthesis is the process that take place in the leafs of green plants where chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and converts the energy from the sunlight to chemical energy. The process produces simple sugars and oxygen, oxygen is either released to the atmosphere or used in cellular respiration. Simple sugars (glucose) are stored as glycogen and used as an energy reserve. 

2. The statement is true. Water and carbon dioxide are are raw materials of photosynthesis. Water is broken down in the first stage of photosynthesis using sunlight to produce oxygen and hydrogen ions. The second stage of photosynthesis involves carbon dioxide fixation producing simple sugars 
(glucose).

3. The equation that supports the conservation of energy is;
 6CO2 + 6H2O + light = C6H12O6 + 6O2
This is the process of photosynthesis that involves use of carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen. 
Six carbon atoms are used to generate another six carbons in glucose, hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms taken in remain the same in the products.
