In the process of photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and light energy to produce a sugar (C6H12O6) an

d oxygen (O2). In the process of aerobic respiration, animals and plants release energy from sugar and oxygen and produce carbon dioxide and water. The chemical equations that describe these reactions look like this: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light C6H12O6 + 6O2 C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

In the process of photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and light energy to produce a sugar (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2). In the process of aerobic cellular respiration, animals and plants release energy from sugar and oxygen and produce carbon dioxide and water. The chemical equations that describe these reactions look like this:

photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2

cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP

How do these equations explain why the total amount of O2 and CO2 remains the same?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

If we look at photosynthesis and cellular respiration, we will realize that the both are complementary processes. The product of one process is the input material for the other process.

Respiration and cellular respiration helps to balance the amount of O2 and CO2 in nature because photosynthesis takes in CO2 and releases oxygen while cellular respiration takes in oxygen and releases CO2. This maintains the delicate balance between the both gases in nature.

In fall, chlorophyll is the first pigment to disappear from dying leaves? Using what you have seen today, and specific vocabular
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Carotenoids and Anthocyanins

Explanation:

During the winter the sunlight is limited for a long period of time. Plants will lose their leaves but first they will turn bright colors. The reason for this is as follows:

Plants' leaves appear green because of the presence of chlorophyll. During the fall the plants attempt to save energy. So, before they drop the leaves they first break down the chlorophyll into smaller molecules so they do not have to make the molecules from scratch all over again when spring comes. What is left behind is the Carotenoids that appear yellow and orange and Anthocyanins that appear purple.

The majority of bacterial species on earth have not been successfully cultivated. true or False
Valentin [98]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The bacterial cultivation refers to growing the bacterial species for exploitation or use. But the humans are not able to cultivate the majority of the bacterial species present which could be accounted for many reasons.

The bacteria can mutate very easily through the exchange of genetic material. Some bacterial species cannot be isolated.  New bacterial species are discovered in less period of time and some species fail to grow on the growth medium due to lack of information.  Till now only one percent of bacterial species have been cultivated.

Thus, true is correct.

Which of the following is not a body segment of the fruit fly embryo?ThoraxAbdomenHeadAntenna
AfilCa [17]

Answer: Antenna

Explanation:

The morphogenesis is a process by which the egg get transformed into a matured adult insect. The egg transform into several transitional stages such as embryo, larva, pupa and finally to adult insect.

The fruit flies undergoes three development stages during morphogenesis  these includes the egg, larvae and pupa. The fruit flies can develop into adult within 1-2 weeks at room temperature. The egg as well as larval stages takes a span of eight days whereas the pupal stage takes six days for development.

The embryo enclosed inside the egg exhibit three important parts the head, thorax and abdomen the antenna is the structure which develop in adult flies.

How do sulfur and phosphorus move from the biotic to the abiotic pools during their cycles? A) Primary consumers eat producers.
worty [1.4K]

Answer:D) Decomposers break down the remains of producers and consumers

Explanation:A biotic pool is a tidal pool with diverse and changing habitats of living factors. We can say they are important mini ecosystems within the larger ecosystem.

The abiotic pool involves the elemental phases of nature,the non living parts of the ecosystem. Decomposition (break down) of elements/organic compounds is the characteristic bridge between both pools into what is known as nutrients.

This tell us that the ultimate dead part of producers and consumers are used up in this process.

Some of the nutrients released in the biogeochemical cyclic process includes sulfur and phosphorus and they move through the ecosystem.

Note: The biogeochemical cycle is a pathway of movement for chemical elements.

The chemical elements in nature moves through both biotic and abiotic components via abiotic and biotic interaction in the ecosystem

Few abiotic factors includes rocks, air, water, and chemicals while biotic factors includes living organisms activities.

All living and non living elements of nature play vital roles in the great biogeochemical cycle.
