Solution:

The series of processes by which carbon compounds are interconverted in the environment, involving the incorporation of carbon dioxide into living tissue by photosynthesis and its return to the atmosphere through respiration, the decay of dead organisms, and the burning of fossil fuels. And the oxygen cycle is a biogeochemical cycle that describes the movement of oxygen within the earth's three main reservoirs which are the atmosphere (air), the hydrosphere (water), and the lithosphere (land).

Both mix in one cycle because of these:

The C2 oxidative photosynthetic carbon cycle plus the C3 reductive photosynthetic carbon cycle coexist. Both are initiated by Rubisco, use about equal amounts of energy, must regenerate RuBP, and result in exchanges of CO2 and O2 to establish rates of net photosynthesis, CO2 and O2 compensation points, and the ratio of CO2 and O2 in the atmosphere. These concepts evolved from research on O2 inhibition, glycolate metabolism, leaf peroxisomes, photorespiration, 18O2/ 16O2 exchange,CO2 concentrating processes, and a requirement for the oxygenase activity of Rubisco .

IRISSAK [1]

Because of high blood pressure or from injury to the glomeruli.

<h3>Why do proteins typically not appear in urine samples?</h3>

There is protein in the blood, but healthy kidneys should only remove very little amounts (traces) of it through the filters into the urine (glomeruli). Protein loss in the urine is not typical.

<h3>What are the proteins found in typical urine?</h3>

You typically have a very small amount of protein in your urine. If your urine contains a lot of protein (proteinuria), your kidneys may be the source of the issue. Your kidneys are a set of organs that purify surplus water and waste from your blood to create urine.

snow_tiger [21]

Trees in the rainforests store CARBON DIOXIDE. The trees absorb CO2 and therefore when they are cut down, they release the stored CO2 into the atmosphere which contributes the climate change. The correct answer to this question is letter "B. Carbon Dioxide". I hope this helps.

Describe at least two other experiments that could be done to verify that chromosomal gene editing occurred in the bacteria.

brilliants [131]

The two ways by which we can detect that gene editing have occurred in the bacteria are;

A) WESTERN BLOT; Here,the gene that is edited will not be able to synthesize the protein.With this,if we do western against the already edited protein,no band will eventually appear in the western blot,and this indicates/confers that the gene have been edited.

B) PCR FOLLOWED BY SEQUENCING; IN PCR,there is amplification of the region with the use of flanking end primers that is edited.

However,mean primers will actually be used in a way that one primer is upstream to site of editing and the other primer to the downstream.

From this stage,the PCR product that is amplified will be sent for sequencing,and this sequency result will further confirm if the gene has been edited or not edited.

Restriction enzyme can also be used if the place where the gene has been edited is known.

If actually the gene has been edited,the nucleotide sequence will get changed.Having to choose such enzyme that cut only one's wide type wild type DNA but not actually gene that is edited,the result will further be compared inorder to confirm whether the gene has been edited or not.
