Answer:

The correct answer is attached as an image and explained below.

Explanation:

There are different zones found in a lake ecosystem or biome that are the photic, aphotic, littoral, limnetic, and benthic zones. The littoral zone is near the shore in a water body such as a lake. Sunlight penetrates this zone and helps aquatic plants present.

The limnetic zone is the photic zone that is an open area of the water body and away from the shore. Sunlight reaches to this area and it can vary in depth up to 200 meters. The aphotic area is the zone that does not get any light in it and the benthic zone is the bed of the lake.

Compare and contrast catabolic and anabolic pathways

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

Comparison

Catabolism and anabolism are both biochemical reactions that are part of important process of metabolism.

Anabolic and catabolic pathways 'need each other,' that is, the energy that is produced from catabolism is utilized by anabolism.

Contrast

Anabolic reactions use simple molecules to build complex molecules, whereas the role of catabolism is to break the large molecules and transform them into smaller ones.

Example of Anabolism

Photosynthesis:

The reaction between CO2 and H2O to form glucose and oxygen.

Example of Catabolism

Digestion:

Breaking down of large molecules to produce energy.

Plant-like photosynthesis that releases oxygen occurs in

Llana [10]

Answer:

A. Cyanobacteria.

Explanation:

Both cyanobacteria and plants use water as an electron donor for the light phase of photosynthesis and make ATP and NADPH. The ATP and NADPH are used in the Calvin cycle to fix the atmospheric CO2 into glucose. The use of water as an electron donor releases oxygen gas as a by-product. This photosynthesis wherein the use of water as an electron donor releases oxygen gas as a by-product is also called oxygenic photosynthesis.
