Answer:

Living trees have water circulating throughout the wood, however it is made easier by the atmosphere, since the tree has a lot more oxygen surrounding it. The tree would, even temperatures aside, be harder to ignite during winter due to more carbon dioxide surrounding the tree.

. While Carl Linnaeus catalogued nearly all known organisms of his day, which major group of organisms did he not account for in
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Single-cell organisms

Explanation:

In 1735, Linnaeus introduced a classification system with only two kingdoms: animals and plants. Linnaeus published this system for naming, ranking, and classifying organisms in the book "Systema Naturae". In the epoch that Linnaeus created this system, single-cell organisms such as bacteria and protists were almost unknown. In 1866, E. Haeckel added a category including both bacteria and protozoa, thereby adding a category formed by single-cell organisms (different from animals and plants). During the 1900-1920 period, bacteria were classified as a separated kingdom named 'prokaryotes'. The current three-domain classification system was introduced by C. Woese in 1990. In this system, all forms of life are divided into three different domains: archaea, bacteria, and eukaryote domains (this last composed of protists, fungi, plants and animals).

The average 70 kg (150 lb) being has 5.5 L of blood (1.05 g/mL). How many 1 oz drinks of 20% alcohol by volume (40 proof) must b
AlekseyPX

Answer:

The total blood given is 5.5 liters

Thus, total alcohol needed for BAC (blood alcohol content) to exceed 0.1 gram per 100 ml will be 0.1/100 × 5500 = 5.5 grams alcohol.

1 oz = 28.3 grams

28.3 gram water = 28.3 ml

It has 20 percent alcohol by volume,

Therefore, alcohol in one drink will be:

20/100 × 28.3

= 5.66 ml

= 5.66 × 0.79 (density of ethanol)

= 4.47 gram

Thus, no of drinks will be 5.5 g / 4.47 g = 1.2

Hence, 1.2 drinks will make the BAC to exceed 0.1 g / 100 ml in the blood.

Why do our bodies rearrange the food we eat and the oxygen we breathe (O2) into carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O)?
Tema [17]

Answer:

A. in order to release the energy found in food.

Explanation:

Every cell in your body needs oxygen to function. You get the oxygen your cells need from the air you breathe. The air you breathe is made up of 20 percent oxygen. The rest of the air is mostly nitrogen (79%). Your body cells use the oxygen you breathe to get energy from the food you eat. This process is called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration the cell uses oxygen to break down sugar. Breaking down sugar produces the energy your body needs. This is very similar to wood burning in a fire. As the wood burns, it combines with oxygen and releases heat energy and carbon dioxide. When the cell uses oxygen to break down sugar, oxygen is used, carbon dioxide is produced, and energy is released. But instead of heat energy, much of the energy produced in cellular respiration is stored chemically for the cell to use later. Carbon dioxide is the waste product of cellular respiration that you breathe out each time you breathe. Blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs. The opposite takes place in the cells where the blood releases oxygen and picks up carbon dioxide.
