Answer:
a.) freshwater plants may be rooted here--- Shore
b.) littoral zone--- it is the region of a lake or pond that is nearest to the shore
c.) limnetic zone--- A region of open water in lakes and ponds.
d.) alternately dry and submerged--- Intertidal Zone
e.) extends to edge of the continental shelf--- Neretic Zone
f.) generally low nutrient levels
g.) light penetrates here--- Photic Zone
h.) no photosynthesis occurs here--- Aphotic Zone
i.) benthic zone--- this is purely known as the bottom of the lakes or oceans
Answer:
Biodiversity includes diversity within species (genetic diversity), between species (species diversity), and between ecosystems (ecosystem diversity). ... Biodiversity loss disrupts the functioning of ecosystems, making them more vulnerable to perturbations and less able to supply humans with needed services.

Answer:
The sodium-potassium pump is an active transporter because it needs to move sodium and potassium ions against the concentration gradient.
Explanation:
You have to think of it as outside vs inside the cell.
Outside the cell, you have 5mM K and 150mM Na. Inside the cell, you have 100mM K and 10mM sodium. Without the transporter then the ions would go from greater concentration to lower concentration. Energy keeps the ions going from the way they would naturally happen.
Microevolution refers to changes that occur within a single species or group or organisms. Microevolution, as opposed to macroevolution, occurs in a short period of time. In microevolution, the ancestor and the descendant obviously belong to the same type. For example, certain pests have evolved in such a way that they become immune to pesticides; the same thing has happened to certain weeds and herbicides. Hope this helps.
Answer:
Each FADH2 yields about 1.5 ATP via oxidative phosphorylation.
Explanation:
Most of the ATP molecules are produced by oxidative phosphorylation, not by substrate-level phosphorylation. During glycolysis, 2 ATP molecules per glucose are produced by substrate-level phosphorylation. Similarly, Kreb's cycle also yields 2 ATP per glucose by substrate-level phosphorylation.
For each pair of electrons transferred to O2 from FADH2 via electron transport chain, 4 and 2 protons are pumped from matrix towards the intermembrane space by complex III and complex IV respectively. It generates the proton concentration gradient required to drive the synthesis of 1.5 ATP molecules. Since oxidation of FADH2 is coupled to the phosphorylation of ADP to form ATP, the process is called oxidative phosphorylation.
