Answer:

Volcanic rock-lichen-mosses-sea grasses

Explanation:

Lichens are complex living beings that form a symbiosis of an organism formed by a fungus and an algae or cyanobacterium. They're known for interacting with volcanic rocks. Moss is a cosmopolitan phylum of small, simple-organized, and non-vascular cryptogamous plants that typically grow in dense tufts, which are more common in humid and dark habitats. They're the ones to come after the lichens during primary succession of volcanic island environments. Marine angiosperms, also known as, sea grasses, are the flower-producing plants adapted to life in seawater that form marine meadows on the euphotic bottoms of the oceans. They install themselves on the coasts that are populated by mosses, therefore not being uncommon to see in volcanic islands.

Who uses the oxygen plants release during photosynthesis?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

During photosynthesis the oxygen is released into the atmosphere through

All photosynthetic eukaryotic cells contain chloroplasts that use the radiant energy of sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates. As a byproduct of photosynthesis, oxygen gas is also released into the atmosphere through tiny openings in the leaves called stomata.

Whats are the functions of the integumentary system ?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Absorption

Thousands of pores on the surface of the skin can absorb vitamins, acids, water and oxygen in order to provide moisture and nourishment to our skin.

Excretion

The skin is the body’s largest waste removal system. Toxins are released through the sweat glands and pores.

Secretion

The skin secretes sebum, a mixture of oils that keeps the skin soft and supple. The layer of sebum on the outermost layer of the skin is known as the acid mantle. When intact the acid mantle has a PH that ranges from 4.5-5.5. The acid mantle is acidic in nature to protect the skin from outside invasion.

Regulation

The skin regulates the body’s temperature by sweating; when water from sweat on the skin evaporates it gives off heat and cools the body.  The body’s temperature increases or by shivering or getting goosebumps when the body is cold. The contraction of muscles releases energy that warms the body.

Sensation

The skin contains millions of nerve endings that transport stimuli. These nerve endings allow humans to detect sensation such as heat, cold, pain and pressure.

Match the following carbohydrate molecules with the class of molecule that they belong to:
Vlad [161]

<span><span> (I) Glucose; is C
(II) Starch; A
(III) Sucrose</span> B

A) Polysaccharides
B) Disaccharides
C) Monosaccharides

</span><span><span>Monosaccharide, disaccharides, and polysaccharides are the three major categories of molecules in Carbohydrates. </span>

Monosaccharides, known as simple sugar, is the simplest form of carbohydrates. Its basic molecular formula is CH2O. Monosaccharides are glucose, fructose, and galactose. Its primary function is to be the source of energy of living organisms. It is also the primary requirement for the formation of disaccharides and polysaccharides.

Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides are bonded together through a covalent bond. Common Dissaccharides are sucrose  (glucose+fructose) or table sugar, maltose (glucose+glucose), and lactose (glucose+galactose). Its primary function is to provide nutrition for monosaccharides. Sugar in food is mostly dissaccharides.

<span>Polysaccharides are formed when another monosaccharides is bonded to the disaccharides. This bond is called glycosidic bond. Two major polysaccharides are starch and glycogen. Starch is made by plants while glycogen is made by animals. Polysaccharides' major function is to immediately release energy from its storage. When glucose is consumed, some of them are stored and will only be released when the body needs it to satisfy the body's immediate need of energy.</span> </span>
