What are the non-living components of an ecosystem?
Three potted plants were kept in a dark cupboard for two days before being used for an experiment. Each plant was then put under a bell jar under different conditions for six hours . Bell jar D contains a potted plant with a small cup of sodium hydroxide solution with light pointed towards it Bell jar E contains a potted plant with light pointed towards it Bell jar F contains a potted plant with aluminium foil on top of the bell jar with light pointed towards it a)explain why their was no starch in the leaves at the end of the two days in the cupboard b)what is the purpose of sodium hydroxide put under bell jar in D?
Answer:
a. There were starch in the leaves at the end of two days in the cupboard because there was no sunlight to provide the energy for photosynthesis in the dark cupboard. Also, any previously synthesized starch in the plant leaves were used by the plant for its own metabolic requirements during the period the plant was in the cupboard. Therefore, staying in the cupboard for two days destarched the leaves.
b. The purpose of sodium hydroxide put under bell jar in D is to remove any carbon dioxide that may be present under the bell jar. This is to demonstrate that even in the presence of sunlight, carbon dioxide is required for photosynthesis to occur in plants.
Explanation:
Photosythesis is the process by which green plants manufacture their food (carbohydrates which are stored as starch) in the presence of sunlight. The site of photosynthesis in plants is the leaves.
The experimental design is to study the conditions necessary for photosynthesis to occur. For photosynthesis to occur, there must be presence of sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide and water serve as the raw materials for photosynthesis while the energy required is provided by sunlight.
The answers to the observations from the experiment are given below :
a. There were starch in the leaves at the end of two days in the cupboard because there was no sunlight to provide the energy for photosynthesis in the dark cupboard. Also, any previously synthesized starch in the plant leaves were used by the plant for its own metabolic requirements during the period the plant was in the cupboard.

❗️❗️EARTH SCIENCE CLASS ❗️❗️Climate factors are the things that established and have changed the Earths climate for billions of years. Which one does include changing the amount of CO2 in our atmosphere
Answer:
Carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere naturally when organisms respire or decompose (decay, or release gas), carbonate rocks are weathered, forest fires occur, and volcanoes erupt. Carbon dioxide is also added to the atmosphere through human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels and forests and the production of cement. Which this also adds to the temperature increase around the world due to our atmosphere keeping all of this CO2.

Explain what happens to an animal cell when it removed from an organism and placed into distilled water
Answer:
I think it has to do with osmosis
Explanation:
Osmosis is the process of having water pass from a low concentration medium to a high concentration one, given that the barrier (membrane) is semi-permeable.
When a cell is placed into distilled water, hypertonic solution takes place.
A cell may contain many solutes so it is considered hypertonic when compared to distilled water which is hypotonic So in this case, when a cell is placed in distilled water, water moves from outside of the cell to the inside leading to swelling of the cell.

which process produce two genetically distinct haploid cells
Answer: mitosis
Explanation:
two examples of heat energy
Answer:
sun and electric heater
Explanation:
sun is the biggest source of heat energy
electric heater is also an example of heat energy as it warms us
1. A cup of fresh coffee is very hot because the water particles are vibrating very rapidly giving the coffee heat energy.
2. A fire is a chemical reaction that is releasing energy as bonds are being broken, this energy is felt as warm or hot and is a release of heat energy.

The H substance is needed for the proper phenotypic expression of the A, B, and AB blood types in the ABO blood typing system in humans. Individuals who are recessive for the H substance (hh) will have a type O phenotype, even if they have the A and/or B alleles. Two individuals, each with type AB blood and heterozygous at the H locus have children. What is the probability they will have a child who is phenotypically type O?
Answer:
The correct answer is - 4/16.
Explanation:
In this question, it is stated that in ABO blood system the proper phenotypic expression of A, B, AB blood types needs H substance. If an individual has recessive for the H substance (hh) will have a type O phenotype.
The cross: ABHh and ABHh
gametes: two set of AH, BH, Ah, Bh
Punnett:
AH BH Ah Bh
AH AAHH ABHH AAHh ABHh
BH ABHH BBHH ABHh BBHh
Ah AAHh ABHh AAhh ABhh
Bh ABHh BBHh ABhh BBhh
As shown there is only 4 out of 16 offspring are recessive for H substance therefore, only 4/16 will have O blood group

What is cell wall???
Answer:
You can simply define the cell wall as a semi-rigid thick protective structure that surrounds the cell membrane of some types of cells for protection and defining the shape of the cell. The cell membrane alone cannot provide the required rigidity or strength. All living organisms are composed of cells.

Complete question:
Which of the following statements is NOT correct about the flatworms?
A. There are three complete tissue layers.
B. Flatworms may be either free-living or parasitic.
C. Flatworms have a sac body plan, with only a mouth and no anus.
D. Parasitic flatworms have a well-developed head with eyespots and nerves concentrated into a brain.
E. Most planaria are found in marine environments, but some dwell in freshwater and moist terrestrial environments.
Answer:
D. Parasitic flatworms have a well-developed head with eyespots and nerves concentrated into a brain.
Explanation:
Flatworms are inferior organisms, meaning that they do not have nerves concentrated in a brain. Their nervous system is, in general, composed of nerve cords forming a net. The arrangement depends on each of the groups. They have one or more pairs of primitive eyes, which function is to find the light. These eyes cup-shaped and are composed of pigmentary cells.
Flatworms have bilateral symmetry. Their body is plane dorsoventrally and can be divided into two specular halves by the sagittal plane. This plane crosses through the body from the anterior extreme to the posterior extreme. The frontal plane divides the body into two different halves, the ventral one with the mouth and the dorsal one.
These organisms only have one opening in their bodies directed to the digestive system, which is the mouth.
Flatworms are aquatic and, most of them are marine animals, although there can be a few groups that inhabit freshwater. Some species might even be terrestrial. Most of them are free-living organisms, but there are also some parasitic forms.

What might happen if genetically modified deer mice with white fur where accidentally released into the wild population of mice? Explain what would happen to each population of mice, brown and
gray. Discuss how the addition of this genetic variation will affect the future generations of mice.
Answer:
They die.
Explanation:
If genetically modified deer mice with white fur were accidentally released into the wild population of mice, they will die and decrease in population because these genetically modified deer mice with white fur can't survive harsh conditions of the mice. Their colour also attract the predators at night so they catch these genetically modified deer mice with white fur and feed on them which automatically decrease its population.
