Answer:
Plants transfer carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to carbohydrates in the biosphere.
Explanation:
Plants are unique organisms being that they have the unique ability to manufacture their own food via the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS. Hence, they are called AUTOTROPHIC. Photosynthesis is the metabolic process by which plant cells make sugar (glucose) in the presence of sunlight.
However, in the photosynthetic process, plants require inorganic source of carbon called CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) and water to perform the process. The chemical overall reaction of photosynthesis is as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
This explains the role of plants in the carbon cycle as they help transfer carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere to carbohydrates in the biosphere (living organisms).
Very simple. You can't renew it. Which one of the options seem like you cannot renew the resource in a reasonable amount of time?<span />
The ability of organisms to regulate and thus maintain a relatively stable internal environment, despite external pressures, is called HOMEOSTASIS. This word comes from two Latin/Greek root words: "homeo" and "stasis".
"Homeo" means constant or unchanging. And "stasis" or "static" refers to stillness, non-movement. So, together, we can translate Homeostasis into a constant stillness inside, which makes sense for "maintaining normal internal states."
Answer: B. In hypoxic tissues, in contrast to normoxic tissues, ATP is additionally consumed to transform lactate to pyruvate
Explanation:
In hypoxic tissues such as new cancerous cells, the vascular system is still underdeveloped, thus oxygen supply is reduced. To meet energy need, additional glucose is needed to convert lactate (result of anaerobic glycolysis) to pyruvate which can then go into the TCA cycle to yield energy. This phenomenon is very common in muscle tissues during exercise.
Seismic waves are waves produced by earthquakes. This occurs
when rocks under the earth suddenly break or explode. There are two MAIN TYPES
of seismic waves called body waves and surface waves.
<span>Body waves have the capacity to travel through the Earth's
inner layers. They have a higher frequency and they are the ones that first
occur under water at the onset of an earthquake. They can be subdivided
into two types, the primary and secondary waves that arrive at seismic records
one after another.
Surface waves can only traverse through the surface of the planet like ripples
in the water. These waves can easily be detected on a seismogram result. These
waves arrive after body waves and they are the ones mostly responsible for
damages and destruction bought by earthquakes.</span>
