Within the human body, different cells have different characteristics or phenotypes. For example, neurons look and behave very d

Answer:

different proteins

Explanation:

All the cells of the body are derived from same cell still different cells have different characteristics or phenotypes. For example, the hemoglobin is present in RBCs only not in any other cell. This is because of a process called gene expression.

This process regulates expression or repression of different set of genes. This makes embryonic cells to become specialized cells that is to perform a specific function. The gene contains DNA which gets transcribed to RNA and then to proteins. The different proteins provides different specificity to cell.

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.

anyanavicka [17]
No. The recorded drop in water in the pipet of the potometer would have been used not only for plant transpiration, but also to return the plant cells to a turgid state. Turgid means to expand<span> due to high fluid content. Plants are required to maintain turgid cells to maintain an upright position as loss of turgidity results in plant wilting.</span>
