Answer:

Upwelling

Explanation:

Upwelling is the process through which cold water gets to ascends from the bottom, providing nutrients to the superficial stratum.

Upwelling is an ascending displacement of marine currents. The phenomenon<em> can also occur in lakes or freshwater dams</em>.

Wind blowing over the coast can cause surface water to move out to sea. This motion is complemented by a slow ascension of cold water coming from the bottom forward to the coast. This currents movement is known as upwelling.

Upwelling water is extremely cold and rich in nutrients, which result from remineralization, by bacterial action, of organic matter that accumulates in the deepest stratum of the water body.

The contact of minerals with photosynthesizing organisms in superficial layers produces a significantly high primary productivity.

a classmate states that mitochondria and chloroplasts descended from the same type of bacteria. Does the evidence support this?
tia_tia [17]
The endosymbiotic theory explains that mitochondria and chloroplasts descended from the same type of bacteria. Symbiosis is an interaction between two organisms of different species, and <u>endo</u>symbiosis is a type of symbiosis in which one organism lives <u>inside </u>the other one. According to the endosymbiotic theory, a host cell ingested symbiotic bacteria, which specialized into mitochondria or chloroplasts. The evidence for this theory is that mitochondria and chloroplasts, like bacteria, have their own circular DNA. They also have their own transcriptional and translational machinery.

Why are forests a renewable resource
Masja [62]

Answer: yes they are renewable.

Explanation:

Trees are a natural resource that can be renewed by (the planting of trees) replacing the trees that are harvested for use by people. We depend on forest products for things like the wood we burn for heat and the wood we use to make houses and furniture. We use trees for the paper to make books and letters we write. Actually, there are more than 5,000 things made from trees. Trees give us baseball bats, shoe polish, and even tooth paste that comes from tree extracts.

Acid chyme is buffered by __________ secreted from the pancreas.
blsea [12.9K]
Acid chyme is buffered by bicarbonate secreted from the pancreas. 
The pancreas secretes two very important things when it comes to proper digestion, and those are digestive enzymes and bicarbonate. Bicarbonate buffers acid chyme, which means that it moderates it - it neutralizes it and helps the body digest food better.
