Answer:

1-Viruses also lack the properties of living things: They have no energy metabolism, they do not grow, they produce no waste products, and they do not respond to stimuli.

2-They also don't reproduce independently but must replicate by invading living cells.

Viruses are considered non living since they are not made out of cells, they can't keep themselves in a stable state, they don't grow, and they can't make their own energy.

Describe what happens as a plant's turgor pressure increases and decrease AS MUCH POINTS AS I CAN GIVE​
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Brainliest pls

Explanation:

Turgor pressure in plants. Turgor pressure within cells is regulated by osmosis and this also causes the cell wall to expand during growth. Along with size, rigidity of the cell is also caused by turgor pressure; a lower pressure results in a wilted cell or plant structure (i.e. leaf, stalk).

Turgor pressure in plants plays a key role in processes such as growth, development, mechanical support, signalling, flowering and stress response. Turgor pressure is an ideal means in plant cells through which the energy content of water molecules (water potential) can be adjusted quickly, within seconds.

Answer:Increase in ambient global temperatures.

Recyling energy to be used again

Regulation of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels

An increase of erosion and siltation along waterways

Explanation:

Conservational biologists think about the preservation of ecosystem by maintaining the environment in a human control way.

Increase in ambient global temperatures.: The humans must prevent the increase in global temperature worldwide by preventing the rise of greenhouse gases which can lead to global warming worldwide.

Recyling energy to be used again: The sources of energy like wood, waste water can be recycled again for reutilization.

Regulation of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels.: The oxygen and carbon dioxide levels must be regulated. As oxygen is the basic requirement for respiration. The increase in carbon dioxide levels due to human activities is likely to cause respiratory diseases and health hazards in living beings.

An increase of erosion and siltation along waterways.: The erosion and siltation will likely to deposit nutrients and debris which may either contaminate the waterway or may cause eutrophication.

Describe where and how the body would break down surcose?
julsineya [31]
Sucrase breaks down sucrose (or “table sugar”) into glucose and fructose, and lactase breaks down lactose (or “milk sugar”) into glucose and galactose. The monosaccharides (glucose) thus produced are absorbed and then can be used in metabolic pathways to harness energy.
