How do organisms store and use energy?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:


Plants store energy in form of starch usually in the roots and/or stem. When there is need for energy such in respiration, starch is converted to glucose which is then used to fuel the process of cellular respiration.

In animals, energy is stored in form of glycogen in the liver and muscle tissues. When there is demand for energy, glycogen is converted back to glucose, which is taken in by the cells and used to fuel cellular respiration

In both plant and animal cells, the purpose of respiration is production of ATP (or adenosine triphosphate), which is the form of energy that cells use.

How would you draw a pyramid of numbers for a dog with fleas? What shape would the pyramid take?

Answers

Since fleas usually undergo 4 steps of transformation,  i would draw 4 floors of pyramid

- The bottom floor is when the fleas still in the form of eggs
- The second floor is when the eggs transformed into larva
- The third floor is when the larva transformed into pupae
- The top of the pyramid is when the pupae already fully transformed into adult fleas

How is ATP made during the light reactions?

Answers

ATP made during the light reactions through the following steps

  • Absorptionof light energy from the Sun

  • Generation of NADPH

The light  energy which is trapped by chlorophyll from the Sun is used in the oxidation of water to generate electrons which is used in the conversion of NADP⁺ to  NADPH.

The light energy also drives the conversion of ADP to ATP through the movement of protons across a membrane. These protons return through ATP synthase to make ATP.

In the light reaction, when electrons are transferred from photosystem 1 to photosystem 2, it goes through an electron transport chain. This ETC pumps protons into the thykaloid. Those protons diffuse out of the thykaloid through ATP synthase which energizes a phosphate group to bond to ADP. This creates ATP.

Which scientist proposed that cells come from other cells?a. Hooke
b. van Leeuwenhoek
c. Schwann
d. Virchow

Answers

Answer: c. Schwann

Explanation:

By the late 1830s zoologist Theodor Schwann along with botanists Matthias Schleiden proposed the cell theory. The cell theory states that all living cells comes from the pre-existing cells, the cell is the basis unit of life and all living beings are made up of cells. This theory describes the basis property of all the cells.       

Virchow. Hooke named the cell. Leeuwenhoek saw the first cell. Schwann observed animal cells. Virchow observed cell division.

Explain how surface mining affects plant life

Answers

Surface mining destroys vegetation and affects soil strata. Mining disrupts to topsoil microorganisms. Reclamation operations that dilute topsoil with subsoils can degrade soil.

What is surface mining?

Surface mining is a type of mining in which the soil and rock covering the mineral deposits are removed. It's the other way to mine underground. The rock on top is left in place, and the needed minerals are taken out through shafts or tunnels.

Surface mining can hurt fish and aquatic resources by causing erosion and sedimentation, drying up wetlands, rerouting and channelizing streams, and putting toxic chemicals into the surface water and aquifers.

This will further disrupt plant life on surface.
