Answer – B (Electrons)
When atoms combine, their nucleons fuse to produce a new nucleus and interactions occur between their electrons, particularly the outer valence electrons. The interaction between the outer valence electrons of the combining atoms forms bonds between them.
Answer: Life would cease to exist.
Explanation:
The carbon elements is one of the most important elements in the compound that make up living organisms. It is found: in the remains of living organisms; as fossil fuels such as coal, coke and natural gas; as inorganic salts such as carbonates; in water bodies and as gas carbondioxide which makes up 0.03% of air.
Carbon is continuously being circulated in the atmosphere through a process called the CARBON CYCLE. This involves the removal and addition of carbon to the carbondioxide in the atmosphere.
Life would indeed cease to exist if this carbon cycle stops due to the importance of carbon to functioning of living organisms. Important processes which bring about the recycling of carbon between living ( biotic) and non living (abiotic) components of an ecosystem are:
--> photosynthesis: the process used by green plants to remove carbon through carbondioxide from the atmosphere for manufacturing of their food.
--> respiration: animals respire to break down sugar leading to liberation of carbondioxide and water as wastes
--> and decay: decomposers feeds on remains and waste to bring about decay, thus complex carbon compounds are broken down to set free carbondioxide which returns to the atmosphere.
All the above processes are carried out by living organisms to maintain a functioning ecosystem by enabling a linear flow of energy through it.
According to the repost made by US Surgeon General
released in 2014, a total of 7,787,000 people died from smoking induced
cardiovascular disease from 1965 to 2014. Cigarette smoking and second-hand
tobacco smoke has been causally linked to cardiovascular diseases.
Think of blood as a gas/ fuel for the car ( your body). If there is no fuel, there's no movement (dead) so when the fuel tank is damaged the car won't function properly.
So if the heart becomes damaged, or weakened it would start making blood clots and damage the organs that need blood to function properly. The circulatory system wouldn't function properly and because other organs depend on the circulatory system it would cause a chain reaction, affecting other body systems. <span />
