Answer:

A) CO₂ is converted in photosynthesis to carbohydrates.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process wherein the phototrophs such as green plants fix the atmospheric carbon dioxide into organic nutrients (glucose). The oxygen gas is released as a by-product of the process.

During photosynthesis, the splitting of water is driven by solar energy and electron transport during light reactions produces ATP and NADPH. The ATP and NADPH drive the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis wherein the carbon dioxide gas is fixed into glucose.

For the purpose, the green plants absorb the carbon dioxide present in the air through stomata. The absorption of CO2 for photosynthesis keeps the atmospheric levels of the gas relatively constant.

Si se rompe un utensilio de cristal en un laboratorio, cómo se recoge?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Si se nos rompe un material de vidrio:

o Lo recogeremos inmediatamente para evitar cortes.

o Usaremos guantes anticorte con la suficiente protección para

recogerlos. Los guantes de trabajo de piel flor vacuno son suficiente.

o Si se nos rompe una pieza de vidrio mientras estamos fregando

tendremos especial ya que el agua dificulta la visión del vidrio.

o Si es necesario descontaminaremos los trozos antes de retirarlos.

o Introduciremos los trozos en un recipiente cuyas paredes no pueda

perforar con objetos de evitar cortes a otras personas.

o Nunca lo depositaremos directamente en una papelera, al coger la

bolsa el personal de limpieza puede cortarse.

o El vidrio no contaminado por productos químicos puede depositarse

en los contenedores de vidrio para reciclar. Si lo hacemos así el medio

ambiente nos lo agradecerá.

o El vidrio contaminado con productos peligrosos, como termómetros

de mercurio rotos, lo gestionaremos como residuo peligroso.

Debemos separar los residuos según el tratamiento que se les va a dar,

(reciclado, gestión como RP, etc.) desde el momento mismo de su

generación.
