Exergonic is the term in the passage that is most likely be used only in a scientific context.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The term Exergonic  is used in a scientific context in the given passage. The chemical reactions takes place either absorbing or releasing energy to its environment in which the reactions takes place. This is due to the breaking or the formation of chemical bonds. It mainly depends on the bond's strength.

When energy is given to the environment in which it takes place then it is called as exoergonic reaction. This occurs due to high strength of the chemical bond that is formed. When energy is absorbed from the environment in which the reaction takes place, it is known as endergonic. The bond that is formed will be weaker and not stronger.

How is the shape of a shark's body adapted for swimming?
inn [45]
Their bodies taper to points at both the snout and the tail, reducing water resistance. Also decreasing drag -- and therefore noise -- are dermal denticles, sharp scales that cover the skin of most shark species.  Rather than bone, sharks have cartilage, which is much lighter and more flexible. In addition, their livers produce squalene, a fatty oil that helps them remain afloat. Their pectoral fins allow them to quickly change direction, dive and swim upward.

Gastrulation, when the cells organize themselves into an embryo occurs 2 weeks after conception. What do the 3 layers of cells g
Travka [436]

Answer:

Gastrulation is the process where the developing embryo forms the process of the 3 germ layers. These germ layers are formed due to the movement of the single-layered blastula. Gastrulation starts during the third week of the human embryo.

The three germ layers give rise to different organs of the fetus. The 3 layers are ectoderm or outer layer, mesoderm or middle layer, and endoderm or inner layer.  

These 3 germ layers give rise to different organs of the human fetus. Ectoderm forms epidermis, skin, hair, olfactory organs, eye lense. glands like pituitary. Sensory nerves, skeleton, pigment cells are also formed from ectoderm.  

Ectoderm also forms a neural tube that further divides to form the brain, spinal cord.

Mesoderm form the vertebral column, skeletal muscle, excretory organs, reproductive organs. It also forms blood cells, blood vessels, body cavity or coelom.

The inner layer endoderm gives rise to the lining of the digestive tract, liver, pancreas, bladder, etc.

Compare biomes of North Africa and iceland
Travka [436]

Answer with Explanation:

"Biome" refers to the flora (plant life) and fauna (animal life) of a particular place. It also includes the climate and specific conditions that allow the living organisms in the environment to survive.

The biome of North Africa consists of both desert biome and rainforest biome. It can be classified into a "savannah biome." This means that both the grassland and the woodland co-exist with each other. On the contrary, the biome in Iceland consists of a "tundra biome." The appearance of this biome is uniform and it is considered the coldest among all the other biomes.

Both of the biomes in North Africa and Iceland are different owing to their temperature, precipitation, nutrients from the soil and so on. The savannah biome consists of both wet and dry climates. These seasons allow the growth of both trees and grasslands. When it comes to the tundra biome, its temperature is extremely low. Thus, it doesn't allow many plants or trees to grow. However, it allows the growth of some unique types of wildlife such as the "Arctic fox."
