Answer: Oxygen

Explanation:I hope it helps . i have breifly explained it .

Oxygen gas is one of the products of photosynthesis.

Which reactant is the source for oxygen gas and how is it released?

A .

Water, released when sunlight splits it into oxygen and hydrogen ions

B .

Glucose, released when glucose is broken down into carbon dioxide gas, oxygen gas and water

C .

Carbon dioxide, released when sunlight splits it into carbon and oxygen gas

D .

Electrons, released when they strike the chloroplasts

Green plants capture energy and convert it into chemical energy by the process known as photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are transformed into simple carbohydrates and oxygen is liberated into the atmosphere.

light

6CO2 + 12H2O ----------------> C6H12O6 + 6O2

chlorophyll

Water is also used as a source of hydrogen required for reduction of carbon dioxide to form carbohydrate.

Water is oxidised in presence of light and chlorophyll. Hydrogen is removed from water and oxygen is released as follows:

light

4‎H20 ---------------> 2‎H20 + 4H+ + 4e− + O2

chlorophyll

or,

2‎H2O ----------------> 4H+ + 4e− + O2

Hence the source for oxygen gas is water and it is released when water splits in the presence of sunlight into oxygen and hydrogen ions.

So, the correct answer is 'Water, released when sunlight splits it into oxygen and hydrogen ions'.

Which macromolecules were present in the unknown solution? In the milk?

Lipids and proteins.

Lipids are macromolecules which provide insulation.
A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.

Proteins are biological macromolecule and mostly composed of enzymes.<span> Proteins play a role in the physical make-up of a cell or acts as a cytoskeleton –maintains cell shape and figure. These proteins plays different roles and works with nucleic acids and other macromolecules in the cells including cell cycle, cell adhesion, immune response and cell indicators. <span> </span></span>

Any change in the speed or direction of an object is called blank

IgorC [24]

Answer: Remember that velocity includes the speed and direction of an object. Therefore, a change in velocity can be either a change in how fast something is moving or a change in the direction it is moving. occur all around you as objects speed up,slow down, or change direction.
