Answer: The basic unit of matter

Explanation:

An atom is the smallest unit of an element or any matter that can ever exist and still retain the properties of that matter. So, since matter could exist as gases, liquids or solids - atoms serves as the basic unit of matter.

Furthermore, an atom is neither a positively charged nor a negatively charged particle rather it is neutral (with no charge).

As well, it is a cell that is regarded as the basic unit of all living things, not an atom

Thus, an atom is best described as the basic unit of matter whether living or non-living.

Scorpion cells undergo aerobic respiration, during aerobic respiration oxygen is used, and ATP is created.

During aerobic cellular respiration, glucose is absorbed with oxygen to form ATP, which can be used by cells. Carbon dioxide and air are formed as by-products. The overall extension to aerobic cellular respiration is: During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen form ATP.

This process takes place in the mitochondria. So respiration occurs in animals and plants because both have mitochondria.

Aerobic respiration is respiration that requires oxygen while anaerobic respiration is respiration that does not require oxygen. Aerobic respiration consists of several stages, namely: glycolysis, oxidative decarboxylation, Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain which have been discussed in the previous material.

3. Storage place for tools and equipment: it is important to have a complete set of tools or their substitute to be able to carry out all nursery activities properly.

4. Boxes, pots, and plots for germinating seeds: there are three places to germinate seeds, young plants, and young trees. Pots are used for germinating young trees while boxes and plots are used for raising seedlings.
