Answer:

chloroplast absorbs the energy in sunlight and uses it to produce sugars. chloroplasts are not needed in plant roots because their function is to use energy from the sun and to convert into starches to be used by the plant. Since sunlight doesn't reach the roots, it would be impossible to use chloroplasts anyways.

What first spurred research into what has now become green building?
Ghella [55]
San Francisco has an opportunity to reap tremendous economic, environmental, and health benefits by adopting recent advances in “green building”—benefits that will only increase in value over time. Many standard building design, construction, operation, and renovation practices are outmoded, inefficient, costly, and have adverse health and economic effects. The shift to new, environmentally sensitive practices would maintain San Francisco’s status as a leader in urban planning and environmental innovation. A shift to green buildings is also vital to enhancing San Francisco’s livability for its residents, workers, and visitors.

Please help now I need it. You need to develop a demonstration to show evidence of how cellular respiration and photosynthesis d
mamaluj [8]
I may not be able to make you a presentation, but I can help you on the idea behind it. Photosynthesis is 6 Carbon dioxide 6 water and light to make glucose and oxygen. With cellular respiration, its the opposite. Glucose + oxygen to break it down and forms waste products of 6 carbon dioxide and 6 water. The main thing it produces though is ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate). ATP is the product of cellular respiration and is fuel for your cells to function. I hope this helps. There are different stages in photosynthesis and cellular respiration that I’m not going to dive into, but this is the main reason why they depend on each other. Because unlike humans where we eat food, they use photosynthesis to make their glucose which they turn into ATP energy. Think I covered most of it. Good luck on your presentation!

<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>Part 1.</h3><h3> Celestial body A is the largest planet in the solar system.</h3>
  • It is Jupiter which is a <u>Gas giants.</u>
  • Jupiter is mostly made of gas.

According to above statement, It is the Jupiter which  largest planet in our solar system.  Jupiter's mass is more than 300 times that of Earth, and its diameter, d, at 140,000 km.

<h3>Part 2. </h3><h3>Celestial body C has optimum conditions to sustain life.</h3>
  • It is earth which is a<u> terrestrial planet.</u>
  • Because it is mostly made of silicate rocks and minerals.

According to statement, earth is that planet because it has living optimum conditions. Like the oxygen concentration, water, plants etc.

<h3>Part 3.</h3>

Celestial body E has the most volcanoes in our solar system apart from earth. It is the second closest planet to the sun.

  • It is Venus and it is a<u> terrestrial planet.</u>

Venus orbits sun every 224.7 Earth days.

It has the longest rotation period of any planet and it rotates in opposite direction to most of the planets in the Solar System.

<h3>Part 4.</h3><h3>Celestial body H is the second largest planet in the solar system and has visible rings.</h3>
  • It is Saturn which is a <u>gas giant.</u>
  • Because it is mostly consists of gases and it also has ring of gases around itself.

it is 9.4 times as large as the Earth. It also has a large and bright ring system.

<h3>Part 5.</h3><h3>Celestial body D has 17 times more mass than earth and has gravity that is 1.14 times that of earth. </h3>
  • It is Neptune and it is a <u>gas giant</u>.
  • It has mostly gaseous composition, such as hydrogen and helium.

Neptune is the eighth and farthest known planet of the Solar System. It is also the third most massive planet.

<h3>Part 6.</h3><h3>Celestial body G has a core that consists of iron sulfide mixed with nickel and is the second smallest planet in the solar system.</h3>
  • It is mars and it is a<u> terrestrial planet</u>.
  • Mars is the second smallest planet while mercury is first smallest planet after the exclusion of Pluto from solar system.

The surface of mars is covered by talcum powder type dust. It contains elements besides silicon and oxygen, are iron, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, and potassium.

<h3>Part 7.</h3><h3>Celestial body I had a core composed of nickel iron alloy rock surrounded by an outer layer of hot fluid. The fluid contains water, ammonia, and methane body I has 27 moons .</h3>
  • This is Uranus and it is a<u> gas giant</u>.
  • is the seventh planet of the Solar System.

According to radius, it is on third number and according to mass it is forth largest planet. Its composition is more similar to Neptune.
