The density of a population of living organisms is usually measured in individuals on one square km. In here we have 50 earthworms on an area of 5 square meters, thus we have 10 earthworms on every square meter. In order to get to the result we need to see first how many square meters there are in one square km. One square km has one thousand meters of length and one thousand meters of width so:
1,000 x 1,000 = 1,000,000 km²
Since we established that we have 10 earthworms on every one square meter, we just need to multiply the number of square meters with the amount of earthworms on every square meter:
1,000,000 x 10 = 10,000,000
So we have a density of 10 million earthworms per square km.
In this situation, muscle cells ferment glucose to two molecules of lactic acid — again, with the net production of only two molecules of ATP per glucose molecule (Figure 16-6, left).
Answer:
Multicellular organisms: Both the plant and the ox are made up of more than one cell.
Both the ox and the plant need to breath somehow (use air).
Explanation:
Answer:
Active transport: movement against a gradient To move substances against a concentration or electrochemical gradient, a cell must use energy. Active transport mechanisms do just this, expending energy (often in the form of ATP) to maintain the proper concentrations of ions and molecules in living cells.
