Answer:

Photosynthetic process

Explanation:

Cellulose, a tough, fibrous and water-insoluble polysaccharide in the cell walls of plants. It is the most abundant organic macromolecule on Earth and also the main component of a plants structure, conferring rigidity on the plants' cells.

Cellulose chains are arranged in microfibrils or bundles of polysaccharides arranged in fibrils which in turn make up the plant cell wall.

All plants are made up of polysaccharides, a very large sugar molecule made of hundreds or thousands of single sugar units (monosaccharide). Cellulose is composed of a long chain of at least 500 glucose molecules joined together by B-1,4- linkages.

Green plants create this simple sugar molecules (glucose) on their own through the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the chemical combination or fixation of C02 and water by the utilization of energy from the absorption of visible light. This glucose produced is a building carbohydrate that combines with other sugars to form the plant structure (as they make up part of cellulose) and store energy.

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Input is oxygen and output is carbondioxide or the movement.

Explanation:

These two systems i. e. scuba diver and scuba gear interacting with each other by giving oxygen to the individual and remove carbondioxide gas from the diver. The input of this system is oxygen that is required by the diver while the output is the carbondioxide gas produced by the diver or the movement of the diver. This scuba gear is responsible for the removal of carbondioxide gas from the system. This scuba gear enable us to stay in deep water for 60 minutes.

Eukartyotic cells are found as bacteria or archaea. They are usually unicellular organisms. Has no nucleus. Has a very small cell size.

Prokaryotic cells are found in plants and animals. They are multicellular. Has a nucleus. And has a much bigger cell  size.

They can have many of the same organelles, but prokaryotic cells are usually more advanced. They are both forms of life. They are both cells.
