Explanation:

Since the student created a closed ecosystem, therefore, the system will have lack of oxygen for any living organism.

Therefore, when snails are placed into it then due to non-availability of sufficient amount of oxygen the snails died.

Whereas effect of closed system on plants cannot be observed as plants do not move from their place.

Thus, we can conclude that due to lack of oxygen snails die in the closed ecosystem.

They may have ran out of oxygen, or they may not have been water dwelling snails, as not all are, lack of food, no flow of water into and out of the tank would cause them to run out of oxygen.

Conjugation differs from reproduction because conjugation
vredina [299]

Answer:

Conjugation differ from reproduction because Conjugation transfer DNA horizontally to cells in the same generation.

Explanation:

Conjugation is a process of transfer of genetic material from one organism to another organism to direct contact.

An organism serve as the donor and transfer to another organism which is the receiver.

The donor carry DNA sequence called fertility factor. It transfer DNA horizontally to cells in the same generation. It is a type of genetic recombination that occur between two organisms.

Conjugation normally occur in bacteria.

Answer No 1:

Process 1 is cellular respiration. Cellular respiration can be described as a process in which glucose and oxygen are converted into water and carbon dioxide. ATP is released by this process which is used as an energy source.

Process 2 is anaerobic respiration. It is a process which occurs in the absence  of oxygen. This process will also yield ATP.

Answer No 2:

The process 1, cellular respiration, is known to produce 38 molecules of ATP. Out of these, 2 molecules are the result from the process of glycolysis, 2 molecules arise from Kreb's cycle, rest 34 are known to occur from the electron transport chain.

The process of anaerobic respiration is known to make 2 molecules of ATP in total.
