A student wrote steps to show the energy transformations involved in producing, eating, and digesting food. Which step shows an

incorrect transformation?
Group of answer choices

Radiant energy from the sun changes to chemical energy in a plant.

When an animal eats a plant, chemical energy in the plant changes to radiant energy from the sun.

After an animal eats a plant, chemical energy changes to thermal energy.

In the animal’s body, chemical energy is converted into mechanical energy when it’s used for muscle movement.

Answer:

When an animal eats a plant, chemical energy in the plant changes to radiant energy from the sun.

Explanation:

This step is incorrect because radiant energy is the energy of electromagnetic waves, or light. The animal is not changing the energy from the plant into light.

I hope this makes sense. Feel free to ask for clarification.

Have a great day! ☺

What industry uses most of the groundwater pumped every year
oksano4ka [1.4K]
<span>Worldwide, industry accounts for about 24 percent of all water use, but this is an average amount. Industrial water use can be as much as 70 percent in some highly industrialized European countries or as low as 5 percent in less industrialized countries, such as Bolivia. Most of industrial water is used as a cooling agent for power plants, but unlike agricultural water use, the majority of the water is non-consumptive. Industrial plants usually draw water out of a river or ocean, use it for cooling their equipment, and then return the water to its origins. If care is taken to avoid contamination, the water is not degraded or polluted, and it can be used again for other purpose</span>

In a hypothetical situation, a certain species of aphid feeds only on sugar maple trees. In forests of the eastern United States
Schach [20]

Options for the questions are not given. They are as follows :

A ) 1,2,3

B) 2,3

C)1 ,3, 4

D)1

E) 1 through 4

Answer:

C) 1,3,4

Explanation:

Some aphids make black walnut trees their habitat in the forest and only prefer to mate with aphids who have the same habitat. This is an example of reproductive isolation since these aphids now have different mating preferences and hence are isolated from rest of the aphids. The isolation occurred on the basis of difference in habitats so it is also an example of habitat isolation. Since the mating is prevented all together it is also an example of prezygotic barrier i.e. formation of zygote is inhibited. However, it is not an example of allopatric speciation since the aphids are not separated geographically from each other. They are present in the same area but have different habitat preference. Hence, option C is correct answer.

To extract energy from carbohydrates, glucose is oxidized through several metabolic processes, resulting in end products of carb
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:the item that has steps involved in glucose oxidation in an aerobic environment is ATP.

CH12O6 + 6O2 + 36Pi^-1 + 36ADP^3- + 35H^+ = 6CO2 + 36ATP^4- + 42H2O

Explanation:

Aerobic oxidation of glucose is coupled to the synthesis of as many as 36 molecules of ATP: Glycolysis, the initial stage of glucose metabolism, takes place in the cytosol and does not involve molecular O2. It produces a small amount of ATP and the three-carbon compound pyruvate.

A plasmid _____________________________ . A. can confer antibiotic resistance to a bacterium. B. is a single-stranded circular D
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option A.

Explanation:

The bacteria organize its genetic material in the single circular chromosome suspended in the cytosol along with additional circular double-stranded DNA molecule called plasmid.

The plasmid is present as a separate structure in the cytoplasm which performs important functions during stressful conditions in the bacteria like providing antibiotic resistance to the bacteria, formation of filial factors during conjugation and many others.

The plasmid which confers resistant to the bacteria is known as the R-plasmid. The R-plasmid consists of r-determinants which confers antibiotic resistance to the bacteria and resistance transfer factor (RTF) which helps in plasmid transfer.

Thus, option A is the correct answer.
