How is phosphorus different from the other nutrient cycles?

Biology
1 answer:
Marina CMI [18]4 years ago
6 0
Phosphorus is an important element for all forms of life. The phosphorus cycle differs from the other major biogeochemical cycles in that it does not include a gas phase; although small amounts of phosphoric acid (H3PO4) may make their way into the atmosphere, contributing—in some cases—to acid rain. The water, carbon, nitrogen and sulfur cycles all include at least one phase in which the element is in its gaseous state. Very little phosphorus circulates in the atmosphere because at Earth’s normal temperatures and pressures, phosphorus and its various compounds are not gases. The largest reservoir of phosphorus is in sedimentary rock.
There’s an explanation. I hope this helps!

DNA determines the fate of each cell.

DNA is the basic genetic unit for each cell and contains information about the fate of the cell. The DNA of daughter cell which remains in stem cell state and continues to divide causes production of those substances which promote it to stay in stem cell state and also promote its continuous division. On the other hand, the DNA of specialized cell causes production of substances which changes characteristics of the cell and causes it to become a mature and specialized cell.

Select the correct statement about osmosis. a. Osmotic equilibrium cannot be reached unless solute concentrations equalize acros
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

c. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the passive transport of water molecules from the region of their higher concentration to that of lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. Osmosis does not include the movement of solutes. When two solutions with different concentrations of solutes are separated by a semi-permeable membrane, water moves through the membrane from a hypotonic solution to the hypertonic solution until equilibrium is obtained. This process is called osmosis.

Most chemical digestion and absorption of nutrients takes place in the _____.
lesya692 [45]
Most chemical digestion and absorption of nutrients takes place in the _small intestine_.
All macronutrient (protein, carbohydrate, fat) breakdown into their basic subunits (monomers) is finalized in the small intestine. This is where all foodstuffs will meet the last set of enzymes and emolients/emulsifiers (dissolvers) to do the final breaking of bonds (chemical digestion). And it is therefore also in the small intestine that a vast blood supply allows a special circulatory route to absorb (pick up) these nutrients (sugars, amino acids, small fatty acids) via their tiny capillaries, and transport them to the liver for processing. This circuit is known as the Portal Venous System.
