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.

In North American forest, two species of birds, nuthatches and brown creepers, forage on the same trees for insects. Brown creep
Yuri [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is - reducing competition between the birds for resources.

Explanation:

In this ecosystem, the two species of birds brown creepers and nuthatches share habitat in the same tree for their food resources are insects. Brown creepers feed on resources on the bottom of the tree whereas nuthatches feed on the top of the tree.

By this, they avoid competition between these two birds for the same food resources in the same tree. The competition would be more if both have depended on the insects all over the tree.
