The five earth's spheres are biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere and lithosphere.

An organism like polar bear might react with each of the sphere in the following way: The bear has its habitat on the land (lithosphere), he eat grasses and other small animals found in the biosphere. It drinks water, which is part of the hydrosphere. It breaths in oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Its wastes is a source of food to decomposers, ( in the geosphere) which breaks it down for plants' use

Caffeine aids in the movement of calcium ions across cell membranes by both making it easier for the Ca2+ channels to open and b

Caffeine cause dose dependent prominent increase in force of contraction and period of contraction of muscle

<u>Explanation:</u>

Caffeine is widely used in foods and drinks. Its long time use can effect central nervous system include lethargy memory, sleep disorder and anxiety.

Increase in concentration of calcium ion will result increase number of power stroke and force for contraction. However latent period and relaxation period are unaffected by caffeine. Increase in concentration of calcium ion will result increase number of power stroke and force for contraction.

Because of calcium ion release in skeletal muscle, caffeine causes peripheral manifestation such as hyper-reflexia, muscle twitching etc.

High amount of caffeine leads to increase in release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum. It increases tension development in single tetanic contraction and re-initiate maximum tension in fatigue single myofibre by restoring Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum to non-fatigued levels.

1. Explain using diagram how monomers are arranged in Thermoplastic and Thermosettingplastics.

Romashka [77]

Explanation:

In thermoplastics, the arrangement of monomeric units is linear and in thermosetting plastics, it is cross-linked. Thermoplastics are usually soft, weak and less brittle, so can get soften on heating and stiffen on cooling. They can be melted, remoulded and recycled easily.

Which is a requirement for natural selection to occur?

KIM [24]

Answer:

Fewer Offspring than the environment can support

Explanation:

It takes time for a creature to adapt to its Environment. So that puts off 2.

Your guaranteed to get traits from your parents so that rules out #1

There isn't really an equal probability of survival for an offspring, ruling out #3.

So that leaves us with 4. I'm not biology expert, I'm just letting you know how I did this problem. Just in case i'm wrong, I would double check with other answers :)
