What organisms save water by turning carbon dioxide into a special carbon compound before carrying out photosynthesis?

Biology

The correct answer is C4 plants.  

A plant that cycles carbon dioxide into four-carbon sugar components to get into the Calvin cycle is known as a C4 plant. These plants are very effective in dry, hot climates and produce ample energy. Various foods one consumes are C4 plants like pineapple, corn, and sugar cane.

In the C4 plants, at the start carbon fixation occurs in the mesophyll cells and the Calvin cycle occurs in the bundle-sheath cells. The PEP carboxylase combines with an incoming molecule of carbon dioxide to the three carbon-molecule PEP, generating a four carbon molecule, that is, oxaloacetate.

How have human activities increased atmospheric carbon dioxide levels?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Human various activities like burning fossils and huge land cover changes contribute to increasing the carbon dioxide of atmosphere.

Explanation:

  • Carbon dioxide level in atmosphere is increasing naturally by organism respiration, decay, volcanoes erupt and carbonated rocks are weathered.
  • Human activities like, urbanization, deforestation, vegetation pattern changes results in changes to reflectivity of earth surface and emmision through burning fossils fuels/forest and cement production are causining an increase in atmospheric carbon di oxide level. When fossils fuel burn the carbon combine with oxygen to form CO2.
  • All these processes ultimately contribute to global warming.

Stem cells are important to multicellular organisms because of their
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

ability to differentiate into other cell types during cell division i.e. totipotent nature

Explanation:

Stem cells are undifferentiated cells with the unique ability to develop into specialized cell types in the body during early life and growth through the process of cellular differentiation. When a stem cell divides, each new cell has the potential to either to remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized function e.g muscle cell, red blood cell or a brain cell.

Stem cells provide new cells for the body as it grows, and replace specialized cells that are damaged or lost. This ability of stem cells to differentiate into a variety of cell types in an organism including embryonic tissue, is an important distinguishing factor. They have two unique properties that enable them do so:

1. They can divide over and over to produce new cells

2. As they divide, they can change into the other types of cell (cellular differentiation).
