Answer: carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Plants, unlike animals, can make their own food. They do this using a process called photosynthesis.

During photosynthesis, plants produce glucose from simple inorganic molecules – carbon dioxide and water – using light energy.

Increasing temperatures in the atmosphere have caused the temperature of the oceans to _______, leading to more powerful tropica
Serjik [45]

Answer No 1)

Increasing temperatures in the atmosphere have caused the temperature of the oceans to increase leading to more powerful tropical storms.

Approximately 25 percent of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere is absorbed in the oceans.

Waste water treatment is critical to removing pollutants from contaminated water by using physical, chemical, or biological processes.

Water pollution can come from the decomposition of dead organic matter or animal waste in waterways.

Water pollution increases the salinity and slows down major ocean <u><em>currents</em></u> that are responsible for regulating Earth's climate.

Explanation:

The devastating effects of global warming effects both the land and the aquatic biomes.

The excess carbon dioxide produced as a result of global warming is absorbed by the oceans. This imposes a serious threat on the biodiversity of the aquatic life.  The dead organism also produce pollution when they degrade in the oceans.

It is essential that before ocean water is used for any kind of consumption, the water be effectively treated to remove all kinds of toxicity from it.

Answer 2)

Water quality can be improved through conservation by :

a) using less amount of water for house-hold purposes: In our daily lives, humans use extra amounts of water fro house- hold activities such as while washing clothes or washing dishes. It should be ensured that we use a reasonable amount of water for every house-hold activity.

b) Fix the leakages: Majority of the houses in a society will not be concerned about a minor water leakage from taps, pipes etc. But it is essential to conserve every drop of water and these leakages need to be fixed. The more water we conserve, the more improved quality water will be available.

Phosphatases are a family of enzymes that remove phosphate groups from specific proteins; these phosphate groups had been added
guapka [62]

Answer:

Kinases would stop working too.

Explanation:

Cells work constantly to maintain homeostasis or equilibrium within themselves. One of the mechanisms used for this purpose is feedback. As mentioned in the question, kinases put phosphates on proteins, and then, phosphatases take them off. Therefore, for phosphatases to work, kinases must be working at the same pace. By inhibiting the phosphatases the number of phosphate-proteins will be too high. This can be perceived by the kinases and they will automatically stop working since there's an excess of product. That process is called feedback.

Answer:

1.Carbon dioxide is converted to sugar used for food. - 1. Location- A

2.Carbon trapped in fossil fuels is converted to carbon dioxide. - 2. Location- C

3.Organic carbon is converted to fossil fuels. -3. Location- E

4.Carbon dioxide is converted to carbonates.- 4. Location- D  

5.Sugar is broken down and converted to carbon dioxide.  - 5. Location- F

Explanation

1. Carbon dioxide is converted to sugar used for food: The carbon dioxide is converted into sugars by the process of photosynthesis, which occurs in the green plants. Plants trap carbon dioxide and sunlight from the atmosphere, to synthesize their food.

2. Carbon trapped in fossil fuels is converted to carbon dioxide: The fossil fuel produced deep inside the earth, acquired by the factory. From the factory the carbon dioxide liberated to the atmosphere.

3. Organic carbon is converted to fossil fuels: The organic carbon obtained after the degradation of organic matter is responsible for the synthesis of fossil fuels.

4. Carbon dioxide is converted to carbonates: The carbon dioxide from the atmosphere gets dissolved with water of the water body and termed as carbonic water.

5.Sugar is broken down and converted to carbon dioxide: The glucose or sugar as a source of food in plants gets broken down into carbon dioxide and water by the process of respiration.
