Mario sets up an experiment to determine the source of the oxygen gas produced by photosynthesis. To determine this, he uses an

isotope of oxygen called O-18. He labels the O-18 oxygen so he can follow its path through photosynthesis. Plant A is given carbon dioxide that contains the O-18 isotope. Plant B is given water that contains the O-18 isotope. When he examines the oxygen from both plants, only plant B produced O-18 oxygen. What conclusion should he draw about the source of oxygen produced through photosynthesis?

Mario sets up an experiment to determine the source of the oxygen gas produced by photosynthesis. To determine this, he uses an isotope of oxygen called O-18. He labels the O-18 oxygen so he can follow its path through photosynthesis. Plant A is given carbon dioxide that contains the O-18 isotope. Plant B is given water that contains the O-18 isotope. When he examines the oxygen from both plants, only plant B produced O-18 oxygen. This indicates that the source of oxygen is water. The photosynthesis involves the transfer of electrons between the photosystem I and II. The water gets split into oxygen, hydrogen ions and electrons in the photosystem I. The electrons move to the photosystem II where the carbon fixation into sugars takes place. The plant A will have O-18 isotope in its synthesised sugar molecule, which gets stored inside it.

When a drug enters the body via oral ingestion, smoking, snorting, or injection, the chemicals move through the bloodstream and
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Blood Brain Barrier(BBB)

Explanation:

This is a biological interface of special endothelial cells of astrocytes, pericytes , capillaries,  neurons and other  structures, acting as a physical barrier or  gate separating the Central Nervous system from the peripheral  blood circulations. Thus it  formed a tight junction serving as a  physical barrier to  selectively regulate the entrance of substances from the   cerebral blood flow   into the brain,  therefore maintaining homeostasis of the brain.

From above any  substances  absorbed into the blood stream  irrespective of the mode of entry  are transported through  the BBB, and  are selectively  regulated to enter the brain cells by the BBB's   interactions with the blood vessels, hormones etc.

Basically it allows the passage of nutrients,  a few  drug, hormones and resists certain toxins and pathogens for the brain homeostasis.

How do I Construct a table to compare the products and reactants in photosynthesis and cellular respiration
katen-ka-za [31]

Explanation:

Create the column headings "Reactants" and "Products". The two row headings should be "Photosynthesis" and "Cellular respiration".

Before filling in the table, make sure you know what the products and reactants from photosynthesis and cellular respiration are.

Remember reactants are the 'before' on the left, and products are the 'after' on the right.

<u>Photosynthesis</u>:

CO_{2} + H_{2}O+light =>O_{2}+C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}

<u>Cellular Respiration</u>:

O_{2}+C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}=>CO_{2} + H_{2}O+ATP

See attachment for how the table could look.
