Think about earths ocean as one subsystem within the larger earth system. Describe at least two inputs and two outputs to the oc

ean subsystem. What are some interactions that the ocean has with other subsystems?

Answer:

There are four subsystem of earth that includes lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere and atmosphere.

Ocean is included in hydrosphere and is one of teh largest subsytem in the earth. <u>The two input and output to the ocean subsytem are as following:</u>

  • The wind energy (input) transfer to ocean surface affects the motion of water in the ocean and produces waves (output).
  • Heat energy recieved from the sun (input) is transferred toward the poles and allows the heat lost to the space (output).

<u>some of the interaction of ocean with other subsytem are as following:</u>

  • Interaction between biosphere and hydrosphere (ocean): ocean provide water to living organism for survival and growth.
  • Interaction between atmosphere and ocean is water cycle. The water from ocean evaporates through heat (sun) and through rain the water again reaches to the oceans.

An object has a kinetic energy of 25 J and a mass of 34 kg. How fast is the object moving?
Andreyy89
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object with mass when in motion. It is calculates by 1/2 the product of the mass of the object and the square of its velocity.

KE = 1/2 (mv^2)
25 = 1/2 (34)(v^2)
v = 1.21 m/s

20. Interphase

21. Prophase

22. Interphase

Explanation:

The cell cycle is divided into two main divisions. The Interphase ad the M phase or the Mitotic phase.

Throughout Interphase, the cell is not dividing yet, but it is preparing to divide. It synthesizes the nutrients it will need, and grows in preparation to become two cells. This is actually the phase the cell spends the longest time.

Mitotic phase is when the cell starts to divide. It is separated into:

Prophase:

In this phase the chromosomes are condensed and mitotic spindles start to form. These spindles are made up of microtubules that will help later on to split the chromosomes. The nuclear membrane disappears so that the chromosomes will be free to move.

Metaphase

This phase is marked by the alignment of the chromosomes in the middle of the cell. They line up and you will find the asters at the opposite ends of the cell, where the microtubules stem from, attaching themselves to the center of the chromosomes, which we call the kinetochore.

Anaphase

In this phase you will see that the chromosomes are separated by the spindle fibers and are pulled at opposite ends of the cell. The cell then becomes longer by the other spindle fibers that are not attached to a chromosome.

Telophase

This phase is the end phase. The two sets of chromosomes are then enclosed by new nuclear membranes forming two nuclei and other cellular structures just as the cells are about to separate completely. As the two new cells move further apart, in plant cells a cell plate forms, dividing the two cells. The movement of the two cells splitting apart is called cytokinesis and it happens just as mitosis is about to end.

Attached is a picture of the cell cycle of a plant cell.

Energy extraction and the complete oxidation of foodstuffs requires three stages. The energy extracted from fuels is converted t
frozen [14]

Note: Question lack some information i have added full question with answer as picture. see attachment.

Answer:

d. In the first stage, macro-molecules are converted to monomers, and a small amount of ATP is produced.

e. In the second stage, monomers are broken down, and a small amount of ATP is produced.

c. In the third stage, fuel molecules are completely oxidized to CO2, and no ATP is produced.

Explanation:

When we take food a process starts which is called as cellular respiration. Through this process the food energy is converted into cellular energy which will further used by body. During all this process oxygen and glucose are converted into water and carbon dioxide and energy in this process is converted into ATP.
