Why did the law of spontaneous generation survive for so many years

Biology

Sliva [168]3 years ago
4 0

The law of spontaneous generation states that the living forms can grow from the non-living objects. The examples of this law were believed to be the arrival of maggots on meat, and dust from the flies. This law was believed to be true for an extended period of time. During those times, the microscope was not invented, and hence, people were unaware about the existence of the living organisms that cannot be seen with the naked eyes (microorganisms). This led to the people believe in the spontaneous appearances of life forms.

Which of the following is a true statement?Anabolic pathways build molecules, require energy, and are endergonic.Anabolic pathwa
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

A: Anabolic pathways build molecules, require energy and are endergonic

Explanation:

Anabolism and catabolism are the two important process of metabolism - a process through which cells get energy to drive various processes within the body and get rid of toxic wastes.

Anabolic and catabolic reactions can be described as opposing sides of the same coin. While anabolism refers to the various reactions that build up molecules within the cell, catabolism has to do with the breakdown of big or complex molecules into smaller ones.

Both processes involves energy. Anabolic reactions require energy to drive the building up process and therefore referred to as endergonic reactions. On the other hand, catabolic reactions liberate energy during the breaking down of complex molecules and therefore referred to exergonic reactions.

A good example of anabolic reaction is photosynthesis which involves the building up of carbohydrate (glucose) using carbon-dioxide, water molecule and energy while a good example of catabolic reaction is respiration which involves the breakdown of carbohydrates into carbon-dioxide, water molecules and the release of energy.

Hence, the only correct option is A.

What might happen if you try to plant a tree that is native to tropical rainforests in the tundra?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The tree will not survive due to the nature of the tundra

Explanation:

The tundra comes from a finnish word "tunturia" which means barren or treeless land. It is classified as a cold icy desert with permafrost on the ground. Unlike the tropical rain forest which is a wet climate group and is a forest of tall trees in a region of year round warmth, the tundra is cold and dry. The tundra soils are formed at high altitudes, they are usually frozen. Common plants in tundra are shrubs, herbs, lichens and grass and usually grow in groups and remain closer to the ground for prevention against cold winds. The cold nature of the tundra and its soil prevent the growth of trees because trees need to have deeper roots and they cannot grow on frozen ground.
