1. True

Organisms must have at least one cell to be considered living things. Virus are not included here.

2. False

All cells has the same DNA

3. True

Estudos recentes têm apontado que todos os seres vivos tenham evoluído de um único antepassado, no caso da teoria de Thomas Cavalier-Smith, seriam os coanoflagelados, um grupo de protistas.

4. True

DNA for example is a universal molecule, even in different organisms, it maintains its same function as that of "making" proteins needed for the cells of individuals.

5. False

The diversity of life is explained by de biodiversity, that is caused by DNA mutations, environmental pressure and the natural selection.

6. False

Informations are stored in organic molecules, like DNA

7. True

The environment can also cause our cells to process information. An example: In a sexual relationship, the environment (which is the situation) causes our body to release high levels of hormone (testosterone) that raise our heart rate and blood pressure.

8. False

Organisms are not closed systems, but open systems.

9. True

Homeostasis is the ability to maintain the internal environment in an almost constant equilibrium, regardless of changes occurring in the external environment. It is possible because of the elaborate signaling networks that exists between different cells within an organism.

10. False

Evolutionary change arises the unity of living systems

HELP!!! How does the Galápagos penguin compare to the cold adapted emperor penguin of Antarctica?
skad [1K]
<h3><u>Comparison between Galapagos penguin and cold adapted Emperor penguin of Antarctica:</u></h3>

<u>Galapagos penguin:</u>

  • Galapagos penguins are the only species of penguins that live north of the Equator.
  • The Galapagos penguins breed all-round the year.
  • The Galapagos penguins are smaller compared to the cold-adapted emperor penguins of Antarctica.
  • The breeding and nesting place of the Galapagos penguins lie on the shoreline.

<u>Emperor penguin:</u>

  • The emperor penguins live and adapt to the cold Antarctic environment.
  • The Emperor penguins breed only during the Antarctic winters.  
  • The nesting of emperor penguins is on ice cliffs and icebergs where the eggs are protected from the strong and cold Antarctic winds.
  • However, both of these species of penguins are at risk of extinction due to the rise in temperature and shortage of foods.

22) Phosphorus and sulfur are returned to the soil primarily by the actions of
Fudgin [204]
I believe the answer is decomposers. Does that make sense in the context of what you have learned in class? If you look up "the circle of phosphorous," you can see images that show that decomposers, like fungi and microbes break down dead animals and plants using some of their phosphorous, but what isn't used is returned to the soil. The same can be said for sulfur. Decomposers like fungi and bacteria break down dead plants and animals and return sulfur to the soil. 

I want to warn you that there is a slight possibility that I might be incorrect. I am still pretty sure I am right. The only thing that makes me question the correctness of my answer is another brainily question I saw when i was looking up this stuff. Two people had responded to that Middle schoolers question and had said the answer was producers. They didn't give any explanation for their answers. So, I am confused as to how they both got the same answer that was different from mine.  No material that I have seen regarding either the phosphorous cycle or sulfur cycle has shown plants as RETURNING the most sulfur and phosphorous into the soil. Usually, it has been depicted that producers, such as plants, UTILIZE the most phosphorous and Sulfur from the soil.

To efficiently provide the ideal amount of nitrogen fertilizer, some farmers make use of a "chlorophyll meter" that measures the
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in chloroplast in plants. It absorbs sunlight during the process of photosynthesis. It is a chelate molecule. In a chelate molecule a central metal ion forms bonds with a large organic molecule made of carbon, hydrogen and other elements like nitrogen or oxygen.

In chlorophyll, magnesium is the central metal ion and it is bonded to a large organic molecule called as porphyrin. Porphyrin constitutes four nitrogen atoms to which the central magnesium is bonded in square planar arrangement. Since chlorophyll is responsible for the green color of the leaves, more the green color more the chlorophyll content and more is the nitrogen content. Hence, chlorophyll meter measures this green light and finds out if the plant needs more or less nitrogen.

What are the 3 stages of photosynthesis?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
STEP ONE: Harvesting Radiant Energy
The first step of photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells. Light photons are absorbed by a pigment called chlorophyll, which is abundant in the thylakoid membrane of each chloroplast. Chlorophyll appears green to the eye because it does not absorb green waves on the light spectrum. It reflects them instead, so that’s the color you see.
STAGE 2: Converting Radiant Energy
After radiant energy from sunlight is absorbed, the plant converts light energy into a usable form of chemical energy to fuel the plant’s cells
STAGE 3: Storing Radiant Energy
The last stage of the photosynthesis process is known as the Calvin-Benson cycle, in which the plant uses atmospheric carbon dioxide and water from soil to convert ATP and NADPH. The chemical reactions that make up the Calvin-Benson cycle occur in the stroma of the chloroplast.
