Answer:

True

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation is the primary energy source on Earth and the driver of the entire climate system.

The sun is also the source of energy that drives all life on Earth. This energy controls the weather, ocean currents and the hydrological cycle, influences our mood and daily activities.

The sun is a star, the same as the stars we see in the night sky, it is only much, much closer to us. It is nearly 150 million kilometers away from Earth. It is at the heart of our solar system and warms our planet enough that life can thrive on it. For over 4.5 billion years, this hot-ball of glowing plasma has been the engine of time, climate and life on Earth.

27. What is the major reactant needed for the Citric Acid Cycle (aka Krebs Cycle)?
sp2606 [1]

Answer: b. Acetyl Co-A

Explanation:

Acetyl CoA produced through pyruvate, amino acids, and fatty acids are oxidized in the Krebs cycle in CO2, obtaining as products NADH, FADH2 and GTP (ATP). Parallel to this oxidation, the Krebs cycle produces compounds used as precursors for biosynthesis. As it is a cycle, an oxaloacetate molecule could, in principle, oxidize an amount indefinite of acetyl CoA. Acetyl-CoA is formed from the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, sequentially performed by pyruvate dehydrogenase -PDH (complex multi enzymatic of 3 enzymes), in the mitochondrial matrix.

In a rainforest, some plants grow in the canopy while other plants grow on the forest floor. These two areas cause plants to go
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

This question lacks options, however, it can be answered based on general understanding of forest layers.

The difference in photosynthetic rate is as a result of the amount of sunlight received by plants in the canopy and the forest floor.

Explanation:

Canopy of a forest refers to the collection of the crowns of trees found above the ground layer of a forest while the forest floor is the ground level of the forest. Plants that grow in the canopy are directly exposed to sunlight and receives most of the light from the sun while plants that grow in the forest floor are least exposed to sunlight as the crowns of the plants in the canopy covers/masks them.

Based on this, the rate at which the plants in the canopy layer photosynthesize will he higher than that of the plants in the forest floor because the amount of sunlight is a determinant of the photosynthetic rate.
