Explanation:
I have been able to supply the correct answers. The cell wall functions as a structure that provides structural support and protection to the cell. It is tough, flexible and at times rigid. In a chemical change, new materials with new properties are manufactured. So, the process of photosynthesis is a chemical change.
The endoplasmic reticulum actually transports material. It transports materials like protein and lipids made within the cell and sends it to where they are needed.
Carbon dioxide is the the gas that animals give off and plants use it during photosynthesis. Cellular respiration involves the activities that result to the breaking down of food in order to release energy.
Crust, the upper layer of the Earth, is not always the same. Crust under the oceans is only about 5 km thick while continental crust can be up to 65 km thick. Also, ocean crust is made of denser minerals than continental crust.
The tectonic plates are made up of Earth’s crust and the upper part of the mantle layer underneath. Together the crust and upper mantle are called the lithosphere and they extend about 80 km deep. The lithosphere is broken into giant plates that fit around the globe like puzzle pieces. These puzzle pieces move a little bit each year as they slide on top of a somewhat fluid part of the mantle called the asthenosphere. All this moving rock can cause earthquakes.
The asthenosphere is ductile and can be pushed and deformed like silly putty in response to the warmth of the Earth. These rocks actually flow, moving in response to the stresses placed upon them by the churning motions of the deep interior of the Earth. The flowing asthenosphere carries the lithosphere of the Earth, including the continents, on its back.
