1. Organic compounds that contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and are the main source of energy for the body.
= CARBOHYDRATES
2. Inorganic substances found in foods needed for growth, regulation and development.
= MINERALS
3. Organic substances found in foods that aid enzymes. = VITAMINS
4. Fats, oils, and waxes that are insoluble in water. = LIPIDS
5. Organic compounds composed of amino acids that form the structure of the body.
= PROTEINS
6. Proteins that help drive the chemical reactions that occur in the body.
= ENZYMES
7. The conversion of the energy found in foods into a usable form of energy for the body.
= METABOLISM
Answer:
Egg and sperm cells have to have half the number of chromosomes as in body cells so when they combine to form a zygote, the zygote is diploid and has the correct number of chromosomes. This explanation describes why meiosis produces haploid cells.
Explanation:
Meiosis is a type of cell division in which four haploid cells are produced from a diploid parent cell having two copies of each chromosome, where the number of chromosomes in the parent cell is reduced to half by undergoing DNA replication and nuclear division. Diploid cell contains two copies of each chromosome, one inherited from mother and the other from father while haploid cell contains only one copy of each chromosome. Examples of diploid cells (somatic cells) are skin, blood, muscle cells etc. Eggs or ovum (female gametes) and sperm (male gametes) are haploid reproductive cells. If the total number of chromosomes in a diploid cell is represented as '2n', then the number of chromosomes in a haploid cell is 'n'. During the fertilization process in an organism, the correct number of chromosomes is restored when the haploid male and female gamete combined to form a single diploid zygote, which is the first developmental stage of an organism.
the moon phase is a Waxing Gibbous
Correct answer: D) From bacteria living in their roots
Nitrogen is an essential plant nutrients, but it is metabolically unavailable to higher plants and animals. It is available to some species of microorganism by biological nitrogen fixation in which nitrogen is converted to ammonia with the help of enzyme dinitrogenase.
The process of breaking apart the two atoms in a nitrogen molecule is called nitrogen fixation. Plant obtain the nitrogen they need from the soil which is already fixed by the bacteria and archae.
Example: <em>Azobacter</em><em>,</em> Nostac
