Mainly because our lungs are made to intake air, and if we where to inhale water we would drown. oxygen can only be obtained from the air because our lungs would be able to expell the excess stuff from air easier than in water. hope i helped.

Determine whether each phrase describes a community, ecosystem, habitat, or population.
Yuri [45]

Answer:

A herd of bison - population

Frogs, insects, and birds living near a pond - community

The plants, animals, water, and soil of a forest - ecosystem

The kelp forest where sea otters live - habitat

All the hummingbirds that live in your state - population

Fish, eels, and lobsters living in a coral reef - community

A dying tree with holes that animals live in - habitat

Wetland plants, animals, and marshes - ecosystem

Explanation:

In ecology, the interaction of organisms are classified into categories including population, community, ecosystem etc.

A population in ecology consists of all the members of a particular species that inhabits a particular location. Based on the wide range of examples given in the question, a herd of bison and all the hummingbirds living in my state are examples of a population because they consists of organims of same species (bison and hummingbirds) living in a particular habitat.

A community, as opposed to population consists of organims of different species that share the same location as habitat. According to the question, Frogs, insects, and birds living near a pond and Fish, eels, and lobsters living in a coral reef are examples that represents a community because they contain organims of different species found living in a common habitat.

An ecosystem is the interaction between the biotic components (living) of a community with one another and also with the abiotic components (non-living). Based on the question, The plants, animals, water, and soil of a forest and Wetland plants, animals, and marshes represents an example of ecosystem because they contain living and non-living components interacting together. The living components in the first and second examples are plants, animals while abiotic components are water, soil and marsh.

Habitat refers to the physical location where the population or community of organisms lives. In this question, the kelp forest where sea otters live and a dying tree with holes that animals live in describes habitats of organisms.

Why do you think catalase has to work so quickly?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Hydrogen peroxide is toxic.

Explanation:

Hydrogen peroxide is a natural product of the reactions in the cell. However, it is toxic to cells and has to be broken down.

Catalase catalyses the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. It is found in all living cells and is very important to prevent the build up of hydrogen peroxide. If catalase didn't work quickly, hydrogen peroxide would accumulate in the cell and poison it, causing the cell to die.
