Answer: Felipe is wrong.

Explanation:

In diagram A, we can see that the light comes from the left, it first impacts on the Earth, and then we have the Moon.

Now, you can model this situation with a flashlight (the Sun) a basketball (the Earth) and a tennis ball (the Moon)

When you point with the flashlight at the basketball, the basketball will look bright, but it will cast a shadow behind it. This shadow will cover the tennis ball, and almost no light will reach the tennis ball, so it will not look bright.

This phenomenon is called a lunar eclipse, and this happens when the Earth is in between the Sun and the Moon. When this happens, we see the moon a bit darker and more reddish.

What would happen to life on earth if the rates of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in all phototrophs were equal?
Reptile [31]

Answer:

When the level of release of carbon dioxide during respiration and use of carbon dioxide during photosynthesis this results in a compensation point. At compensation point the net available carbon dioxide to phototrophs becomes  zero. As, carbon dioxide is the chief ingredient for photosynthetic products like glucose and oxygen. These products are used up during the process of respiration. When the rates of two processes photosynthesis and respiration becomes equal. Phototrophic organisms will not be able to compensate for lack of carbon dioxide levels. Phototrophs will not be able to produce their food in the form of glucose and hence will not be able to respire too. This will result in lack of overall available food from phototrophs and lack of available oxygen for respiration. This will result in decline of organisms on earth.

Appositional growth occurs within the ____________ . In this process, ____________ in the inner cellular layer of the periosteum
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Appositional growth occurs within the periosteum . In this process, osteoblasts in the inner cellular layer of the periosteum produce and deposit bone matrix within layers parallel to the surface, called external circumferential lamellae. These lamellae are analogous to tree rings: As they increase in number, the structure increases in diameter. Thus, the bone becomes wider as new bone is laid down at its periphery. As this new bone is being laid down, osteoclasts along the medullary cavity resorb bone matrix, creating an expanding space.
