desert, open ocean, lake, tropical rain forest

Explanation:

The net primary productivity tells us about how productive an ecosystem is. It is usually derived by the difference between the amount of carbon dioxide that producers used to the amount they release during their cellular respiration.

  • The rainforest is the biome with the highest amount of net productivity.
  • The amount of sunlight and organic matter used up during photosynthesis is very large.
  • The tropical rain forest receives the highest amount of sunlight because the sun is overhead here.
  • This provides energy to drive photosynthetic process in the presence of other available resources.
  • Deserts are bare and lacks plants due to the extreme conditions here not favorable to life.
  • The open ocean productivity is restricted to the photic zone where light is only able to reach
  • Lakes are highly productive ecosystems.

xxMikexx [17]
I think the nurse should first refer the client to her health care provider for testing, evaluation and treatment. This should be done so that a more definitive diagnosis may be done to identify the cause of the pain. According to the level of pain being experienced and other symptoms, the woman could be experiencing a gallbladder disease.

If one strand of DNA is CAGGTTACG, the opposite strand is
aliina [53]


The correct answer is a - GTCCAATGC

According to base pairing rules, in DNA G will always pair with C and A will always pair with T.

These letters represent nucleotides. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids namely DNA and RNA.

A denotes the nucleotide called Adenine

C denotes the nucleotide called Cytosine

G denotes the nucleotide called  Guanine

T denotes the nucleotide called Thymine.

In RNA, there is slight difference in base pairing. Since RNA never has Thymine in its structure, the thymine has been replaced with Uracil.  Therefore in RNA,  Adenine will pair with Uracil.
