Biology
1 answer:
Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago
5 0

All carbohydrates are made up of monosaccharides.

Explanation:

The carbohydrates are one of the crucial naturally occurring chemicals when it comes to the survival and prosperity of the living organisms. They serve lot of different roles, from providing energy, storing energy, fertilization, make up the RNA, strengthening the immune system etc.

The carbohydrates though are not all the same, and they can actually be divided into four different groups:

  • monosaccharides
  • disaccharides
  • oligosaccharides
  • polysaccharides

Each of them has different chemical composition, thus having different properties. Those different properties in turn result in different types of usages for each of them among the living organisms. The smallest units, the monosaccharides and disaccharides are actually the ones that are referred to as sugars, something that we all know very well and use it on daily basis.

The phrases above are describing what layer of our atmosphere?
blagie [28]

Fades into outer space

No clear upper boundary  

Not all scientists agree that it is part of atmosphere

The phrases above are describing <u>B) exosphere layer of our atmosphere</u>

Explanation:

  • The exosphere is the uppermost region of Earth's atmosphere as it gradually fades into the vacuum of space.
  • Air in the exosphere is extremely thin - in many ways it is almost the same as the airless void of outer space.
  • The exosphere is perfect for placing satellites as there is very little friction and they are able to orbit fairly easily without being disrupted. Most of the molecules that exist in the exosphere end up being pulled back into earth's lower atmospheric levels by gravity.
  • The air in the exosphere is very thin, and is made up mostly of helium, and hydrogen.
  • Traces of other gases such as atomic oxygen and carbon dioxide can also be found. The upper level of the exosphere is the farthest point from earth that is still affected by earth's gravity.
  • The exosphere is an important atmospheric layer as it functions as a transition zone between the earth's atmosphere and outer space
  • It is the layer in which we can find artificial satellites that carry out constant studies of the earth and outer space. It also acts as a transit zone towards outer space.
