Answer:

I'm doing this question right now.

I'm pretty sure it's C. There is more biodiversity in the high tide zone because the waves bring additional nutrients to the area.

Answer:

B. There is less biodiversity in the high tide zone because the tidal changes make survival difficult.

Explanation:

The high tide and low tide zones are located on the seashore as the ocean water merges with land.

High tide zones are usually covered with water during high ocean tide while low tide zones are always submerged in water.

There is low biodiversity in the high tide zone because the tide here changes rapidly and organisms find it difficult to adapt. Organisms that inhabit here must be welll adapted to withstand peroids of high tides.

If people use an ecosystem without damaging it then what they are doing is__ ?

Answer:

Sustainable use of the environment

Explanation:

Be it the ecosystem or the food you eat, if you just take up whatever you need instead of over exploiting the resources, another life can benefit from it. The relationship we need to form with our environment should be mutualism or commensalism but not parasitism.

Which of the following samples has the greatest population density?

Andrews [41]

The right answer is D.

The density of a given population is calculated by dividing the number of inhabitants by the area expressed in km² (or in hectares).

Number of inhabitants ÷ area (in km²) = number of inhabitants / km²

A = 125000 organism/ 2.5 m2 = 50,000 organisms / m2

B = 13000 organisms / m2

C = 37500 organisms / m2

D = 200000 organisms / m2

There is an error in the above model.

ATP hydrolysis is the lysis of the molecule mediated by water. It releases a phosphate group and energy. It is a reversible reaction. (a) Reversible ATP hydrolysis. (b) added energy on the left and released energy on the right.

------------------------

ATP is a significant molecule involved in many of the cellular metabolic routes. These metabolic processes can either form it or break it.

ATP provides energy to many different functions in the organism.

ATP means adenosine tri-phosphate. It is composed of adenosine (an adenine plus a ribose), and three phosphate groups.

Note: you can also find adenosine Diphosphate (two phosphates) and adenosine monophosphate (one phosphate).

Oxygens from the phosphate groups only have a single bond to phosphate (there are no hydrogen bonds).

These single bonds, known as phophoanhydrid bonds, have a negative charge and tend to repel each other, making the molecule unstable.

So phosphate groups repel each other, and a considerable amount of energy is applied to keep them united. So phophoanhydrid bonds are high energetic bonds.

The forces that keep the phosphate groups together accumulate potential energy.

If these bonds are broken, part of this potential energy would be released.

When talking about breaking the molecule, we are referring to ATP hydrolysis. And the released energy is used in different cellular processes that require energy.

ATP Hydrolysis is the molecule lysis mediated by a water molecule.

ATP + H₂O ⇄ ADP + Pi + Energy

Pi is the released inorganic phosphate group.

This is a reversible reaction, meaning that the ADP can go back to ATP.

ADP + Pi + Energy ⇄ ATP + H₂O

(a) What is this a model of?

This model represents the reversible ATP hydrolysis.

In the superior part of the image, we can see an ATP molecule composed of adenine, ribose, and three phosphate groups. The yellow star behind represents the accumulated energy.

When ATP hydrolysis, it loses a phosphate group and part of the energy that was keeping this group in the molecule.

An ADP is composed after hydrolysis. We can see this molecule in the inferior area of the image.

ADP molecule is composed of adenine, ribose, and two phosphate groups.

Because hydrolysis is a reversible process, by adding a new phosphate inorganic group and energy, we can get a new ATP.

(b) Explain how you would change the model to make it correct?

What is wrong with this model is that instead of showing released energy during the hydrolysis process, it shows energy added to the reaction.
