Static shock is caused by an electrical charge built up in a person, changing them from being neutral to being negatively or positively charged. ... The material of the trampoline surface is usually the culprit; if the surface is made of nylon it a good conductor for electricity and can cause static shock.

Answer:

When you touch a doorknob (or something else made of metal), which has a positive charge with few electrons, the extra electrons want to jump from you to the knob. ... Static electricity happens more often during the colder seasons because the air is drier, and it's easier to build up electrons on the skin's surface.

Anna11 [10]

Answer/Explanation:

Using solar energy, photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen, whereas respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy, releasing carbon dioxide and water.

Therefore, photosynthesis and respiration act as a cycle, using reverse reactants and products.

Photosynthesis builds food for the cell to use, respiration uses this food to power cellular processes.
