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.

How are mammalian sperm cells produced and incubated at a lower temperature than boday temperature ?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:by being produced in the testes outside the body

Explanation: spermatogenesis is the production of male gamates,the sperm.this process occurs in the seminiferous tubules in the testes.epithelial cells produces the primary spermatocyte which divides to give a secondary spermatocyte.

The secondary spermatocyte divides to form spermatids,which differentiates to form the spermatozoons.

Testis is housed in the scrotal sac.

Sperm production is sensitive to temperature. Too high temperature can cause formation of abnormal cells . As a result the scrotal sac is located outside the body

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is cells can do more in less time.

Explanation:

Human body has developed specialized cell so that specific cells can carry out specific functions of the complex human body system.

      Each body cells are specialized for their specific function for example heart cells act as pump,lung cells helps in gas exchange,blood cells helps in transport of biomolecules,muscle cells helps in the contraction and relaxation.

  Thus the numerous functions of human body are divided among specific cell so that each cell will have low work load and can carry out their specific functions in less time.
