Answer:
Dehydration Synthesis
Explanation:
Most macromolecules are made from single subunits, or building blocks, called monomers. The monomers combine with each other using covalent bonds to form larger molecules known as polymers.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
The process in which the macro molecules breakdown in order to derive energy from them to sustain life is known as metabolism.
It includes intake of carbohydrates, fats, protein, nuclei acid and other compounds in order to break them and obtain energy for various types of cellular processes is known as metabolism.
The macro molecules breakdown to provide energy that is used for living.
Hence, the correct answer is option D
Carbon enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide from respiration and combustion. Carbon dioxide is absorbed by producers to make carbohydrates in photosynthesis. Animals feed on the plant passing the carbon compounds along the food chain. ... The animals and plants eventually die.
Answer:
Biome is another name for a distinct type of ecosystem. Biomes are characterized by their climate, which determines the particular plants found there. The climate and the plants in a biome determine what animals live there. This article addresses the climate and biodiversity of one of Earth’s most diverse and iconic biomes: the tropical rainforest.

<h2>
Answer:</h2>
- Deforestation.
- Overexploitation.
- Pollution.
- Climate change.
- Invasive species.
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
- <u>Deforestation:</u> in simple words means clearing of forests for man use such as for making wood fuel, furniture,papers and land land for civilization etc. but these forests plays important role as they are home for most of the world's biodiversity. For example, in the Amazon around 17% of the forest has been lost in the last 50 years, and amazon forest are also known as lungs of planet earth as it produces the maximum amount of oxygen.
- <u>Overexploitation: </u>basically means harvesting species from the wild at rates faster than natural populations can recover. Over-fishing, over-hunting both are type of overexploitation.
- <u>Pollution: </u>it can be of various types such as air, water, noise pollution etc. these are serious threat to biodiversity, but in particular nutrient loading into land and water sources, primarily of nitrogen and phosphorus, which is a major and increasing cause of biodiversity loss.
- <u>Climate change:</u> Its consequences are one of the most important threats to biodiversity and the functions of ecosystems.It includes temperature increases, shifts of climate zones, melting of snow and ice, sea level rise, droughts, floods, and other extreme weather events. Natural systems are vulnerable to such changes due to their limited adaptive capacity.
- An<u> invasive species</u> is defined as an "Alien species" which means species added to a particular region without their natural existence whose introduction does or is likely to cause economic or environmental harm. Invasive species are one of the major threat to our environment because they (1) as they can change habitats of other species and can also alter the ecosystem function. (2) they can crowd out or replace native species(species residing their naturally) (3) damage human activities, costing the economy.
Result: Above are the common threat for biodiversity.
