Underwater living faces many of the same life support challenges as living in space. ... But in the future, underwater habitats might provide their own oxygen with artificial gill technology to extract dissolved air from the sea water
Since humans do not have gills, we cannot extract oxygen from water. Some marine mammals, like whales and dolphins, do live in water, but they don't breathe it. They have developed a mechanism to hold their breath for long periods of time underwater.
To put these depths into perspective, three American football fields laid end to end would measure 900 feet (274.32 m) long — less than the distance these divers reached underwater. Most recreational scuba divers only dive as deep as 130 feet (40 meters), according to the Professional Association of Diving Instructors.
Complex molecules are made up of other elements bonded with carbon. Carbon is able to bond with other molecules so easily because it has four valence electrons.
Answer:
(C) 10 times more acidic than distilled water.
Explanation:
The pH scale is logarithmic, meaning a pH difference of one is a difference of 10 times.
Answer:
organelles are very similar to present-day bacteria, suggesting a common ancestor.
Explanation:
Some evidence suggests that some organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts within eukaryotes were once used to be independent eukaryotes.
Endosymbiosis theory says that ancestral prokaryotic cells engulfed bacteria like cyanobacteria which with time evolved into mitochondria and chloroplast. Molecular evidence also proves that these organelles were once prokaryotic organisms because they show similar genetic makeup and ribosome type.
So these organelles are similar to present-day bacteria showing that they have a common ancestor.
