Answer:
Photosynthesis has two parts: the light-dependent reactions and the dark reactions (the Calvin cycle). Photosynthesis in a general sense, uses CO2 and water to create C6H12O6 (glucose) and oxygen. The light-dependent reactions use water to make oxygen, and a reduced energy carrier (NADPH) is also created. The Calvin cycle uses carbon dioxide and ATP to create G3P for glucose.
The light-dependent reactions occur on the membrane of the thylakoid and also involve shuttling electrons across different complexes (photosystem II and photosystem I), eventually causing ATP to be created with a proton gradient.
The light-independent reactions/Calvin cycle occur in the stroma of the chloroplast and also involve shuffling carbons around. Carbon dioxide is processed in three stages, and glucose is made from 6 CO2.
The potato crop devastation occurred in Ireland for not using one single potato species.
Explanation:
Potato became the staple crop of 18th Century Ireland and was easy to grow in the soil of this place. Later, it became the most dependent crop of the people of Ireland which made its supply very demanding leading to the yielding of more than one species of potatoes.
This yielding reduced the variety in the genetics of potatoes that helped in preventing the disease that affect potatoes by making the Irish people susceptible to famine. The Phytopthora bacteria affected the potatoes of North America in the year 1840 and Ireland’s moist weather in that same year made the blight to thrive.
Answer:
A. 3
B. 4
C. 5
D. 6
E. 2
F. 1
Explanation:
1. Integumentary system.
This is an organ system that consists of hair, skin, nails and exocrine glands with receptors that senses the outer stimulus and environmental conditions, through homeostasis maintain stability of the internal environment.
2. Nervous system.
It receives sensory information and signals, convert them to nerve impulses that are transmitted to the body and brain via the spinal cord using nuerons and axons. It also intergrates, retains and analyses information in the brain.
3.Endocrine system.
Secretes hormones and chemicals in response to stimulus from the nervous system to maintain balance using feedback loops i.e, negative and positive.
4. Lymphatic system.
Part of the immune system that consist of vessels that carries lymph, cleaning the blood by filtering lymph with foreign particles into the lymph node.
5. Urinary system.
Used to eliminate waste from the body, regulates blood pressure, volume and pH. It also used to retain electrolytes and metabolites.
6. Respiratory system.
Used for gaseous exchange using the blood, heart and lungs. Air enters the lungs, transported by blood and is pumped by the heart to all body parts where oxygen is dropped, carbon dioxide is collected by the veins to the lungs and released to the atmosphere.
Answer:
t= 3886.18 years old
Explanation:
Whenever an animal dies de C14 and N14 begin to disintegrate in such a way that the proportion between C14 and C12 decreases, with a semi-disintegration period of 5.730 years, T. To get to know how long it takes an element to disintegrate, we must use this semi-disintegration period, which is the time it takes until the amount of the element is reduced to its half.
We can find the age of the fossil, t, by using the next formula:
t = - (T x ln (C14))/ ln (2)
t = - (5730 x ln (0.625)/0.693
t= - (-2693.12)/0.693
t= 3886.18
Answer:
The correct answer is asthenosphere.
Explanation:
The Earth comprises four layers, that is, the crust, the mantle, the inner core, and the outer core. The magnetic field of the Earth is the amalgamation of the convection it attains from the Coriolis Effect and the outer core. The layer of the Earth where convection of the mantle takes place is the asthenosphere.
