OD. Lithosphere
Explanation:
The lithosphere is a strong rigid layer of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle
The correct answer is glucose.
Glucose is the major carbohydrate that can be absorbed and used by humans for energy. In animals, glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver and the muscle tissue in contrast to plants wherein they store glucose as amylose and amylopectin (also known as starch). In digestion of starch, it will start with the saliva where the enzyme salivary amylase will break it down to smaller molecules of starch and limit dextrins. These will be further broken down in the intestines using the pancreatic amylase forming di and trisaccharides. These di and trisaccharides will be metabolized by brush border enzyme to eventually produce glucose (and other monosaccharides that can be absorbed such as fructose and galactose).
Organisms that live in water are not totally independent of soil as a resource. These organisms depend on aquatic plants for food and other substances. These aquatic plants in turn require minerals for their sustenance. These minerals are carried to waterbodies from soil by rivers, rainwater etc.
The intensity of light had greater impact on the rate of photosynthesis. It was observed that the jar in which the intensity of light was high, large amount of oxygen was produced as compared to the jar in which the intensity of light was low.
In the process of photosynthesis, oxygen is produced from the carbon dioxide. As the oxygen in the jar increases, the leaf disk rises with in the jar which also signifies the higher oxygen production with higher rate of photosynthesis in presence of high intensity of light.
