Diatoms are made of silica (hydrated silicon dioxide)
Answer:
Radiolabeled carbon atom in CO2
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants fix the atmospheric CO2 into glucose. The process includes carbon fixation during which RuBisCo enzyme catalyzes the reaction of CO2 and a five-carbon compound called RuBP to form 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA). The 3-PGA enters the reduction phase of the Calvin cycle wherein it is reduced into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Two molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate make one molecule of glucose.
To test the hypothesis that glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate from photosynthesis is used by plants to synthesize lipids, radiolabeled CO2 must be used. The radiolabeled carbon atom in the CO2 would be fixed in the form of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. If the plant uses glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate as a precursor for lipid synthesis, the synthesized lipid molecules would carry the radiolabeled carbon atom.

<u>EARTH'S MAGNETIC FIELD</u></h2>
The magnets point North when the Earth's magnetic field has?
<h2>
<u>ANSWER</u></h2>
I think the best answer for this question is Magnetic Reversal or Geomagnetic Reversal.
In geomagnetism, the term "geomagnetic reversal" also known as 'flip', is the process by which the North pole becomes South pole and the South pole transforms into North pole.
<h2>
<u>THE MAGNETIC REVERSAL</u></h2>
The reversals happen on rare occasions when iron molecules start moving towards the opposite direction as other iron molecules around them within the Earth's spinning outer core.
