Answer:

Option B, chemical energy to thermal energy

Explanation:

All living organism feed on food that contains energy in the form of chemical energy. Once the food is intake and processed for fulfilling energy requirement of all metabolic processes with in a cell, the remaining energy is released as heat (thermal energy). Thus, an amoeba while consuming a sugar molecule converts chemical energy with in the sugar to thermal energy in the form of energy molecules.

Hence, option B is correct

Answer:

The answers to the blank spaces are numbered as follows:

1. Function

2. Nucleus

3. Mitochondria

4. ATP

5. Chloroplast

6. Glucose

7. Ribosomes

Explanation:

This question is describing the organelles found in a cell. An organelle is a structure that performs a specific FUNCTION (1) in a cell. There are different kinds of organelles with each possessing its own peculiar function. Some of them are as follows:

- NUCLEUS, which is regarded as the brain of a cell because it directs or controls a cell's activities just like the brain of an organism does.

- MITOCHONDRIA is an organelle that produces the energy storing compound called ATP (adenosine triphosphate), hence, it is called power house of the cell.

- CHLOROPLAST is an organelle found in plant cells that functions in the conversion of light energy (from sun) into GLUCOSE (chemical energy) in a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

- RIBOSOMES is an organelle found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells that serves as the site of PROTEIN production in a cell.

Which two generalizations can be made based on what you know about cycles of matter in a closed system?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: The correct answer is option 3) The amount of matter within the system remains the same and 5) The cycle has a well-defined starting and stopping point.

A closed system can be defined as a system in which there is the only exchange of energy with the surrounding, while no exchange of matter takes place.  

In a closed system, the cycle has a well-defined starting and stopping point.

Therefore, the two generalizations which can be made for cycles of matter in a closed system are option 1) and 5)
