During the summer, cool coastal breezes blow from the ocean toward the land during the day, and they blow from the land toward t

he ocean during the night. This shift in wind direction is due to temperature differences in the air over the land and the ocean. What specific role does the ocean play in this process?
A) The ocean retains more heat, which causes the temperature of the air above it to change drastically between day and night.
B) The ocean retains more heat, which stabilizes the temperature of the air above it.
C) The ocean retains less heat, which causes the temperature of the air above it to change drastically between day and night.
D) The ocean retains less heat, which stabilizes the temperature of the air above it.

It's B because during day when temperature of air is increased water retains most of the heat to keep the temperature of atmosphere at tolarable limit. During night when sun sets ocean transfer its heat to atmosphere as heat always transfer from region of high temperature to region of low temperature. In this way temperature of air is stabilized. Hope it makes sense to you

Explain how a carbon atom from a CO2 molecule in the air can end up as a carbon atom in a protein in a plant cell
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Photosynthesis and metabolism are among the most complex areas in biology so given the nature of this forum I've kept the answers simple and brief.

Carbon is of central importance to all biological systems due to its special bonding properties allowing it to form various bonds with other atoms and produce a wonderfully complex range of molecules used by life.

In photosynthesis inorganic carbon in carbon dioxide gas is fixed to hydrogen to produce sugar, an organic molecule. In this case the carbon gains electrons so it is 'reduced' and this process requires energy in the form of light. Once in sugar form, the process can be reversed and the carbon can be oxidised back into carbon dioxide during cellular respiration, releasing energy.

So in photosynthesis, the carbon from carbon dioxide is reduced to form a sugar molecule. When transitioning to respiration, the carbon in the sugar is oxidised to form carbon dioxide again in the reverse reaction to photosynthesis.

The carbon is transferred between molecules through various intermediate steps during these processes, involving enzymes (biological catalysts) to assist in cleaving specific bonds at each stage. During cellular respiration (an energy release reaction) as the carbon is successively oxidised electrons are liberated that are used as part of the energy release. These electrons are captured or 'carried' by special organic molecules called NAD and FAD (reducing them) which in turn can then be oxidised to produce the universal energy currency of life: ATP molecules. ATP is a small bio molecule containing a high energy phosphorous bond that can be broken to release energy to do cellular work. It is used by all life that we know of and is the ultimate product of cellular respiration.
