Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The existence of a good and favorable ecosystem depends upon certain factors such as temperature, rainfall, and sunlight. In a place where there is abundant rainfall, sunlight and moderate temperature, there occurs an ecosystem that is rich in a variety of species as it provides the necessary elements that support the existence of a favorable ecosystem. Due to the moderate temperature and good amount of precipitation, the soil in this ecosystem gets the required nutrients that help in the growth of different species of plants and trees. This given condition reflects a tropical type of ecosystem where there are numerous trees and also a huge variety of species exists. The tropical ecosystem lies in the equatorial and near-equatorial region on earth.

Hence, the correct answer is option (D).

How are Earth’s organisms and crust interdependent?
sattari [20]
The Lithosphere contains all of the cold, hard, solid rock of the planet's crust, the hot semi-solid rock below the crust, the hot liquid rock near the center of the planet, and the solid iron core. The biosphere is the sphere that contains all of the Earth's living organisms. The organisms and crust interact through events between spheres, such as natural events like floods, shifts in the Earth's crust. Some event as such could create soil erosion resulting in decreased vegetation and increase death of organisms. <span>

The graph represents velocity vs. time for Carla. A graph with horizontal axis time (seconds) and vertical axis velocity (meters
kherson [118]

Answer:

The statement that best describes the graph is Carla slowed down in the beginning of her trip, stopped, and then sped up.

Explanation:

Data:

Horizontal axis = time.

Vertical axis = velocity (m/s).

A line runs in straight segments

  • <em>from 0 seconds 15 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 1 seconds 13 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 2 seconds 10 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 3 seconds 4 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 4 seconds 0 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 6 seconds 4 m/s.</em>

According to the data present in the graph, it can be seen that Carla starts with a speed in her career, which decreases over time. After four seconds she stops, remains stopped for one second and starts running again, with an initial speed of 4 m/s.

<em>In conclusion, the graph show Carla -who is moving- slows down until she stops, and then starts the race again.</em>

kotykmax [81]
Answer;
The process of respiration is essential in the oxygen/carbon dioxide cycle. Respiration removes oxygen from the atmosphere and produces and releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. 

Explanation; 
Respiration is one of the natural process that adds carbon dioxide to the atmosphere and at the same time remove or decrease the amount of oxygen. 
Both plants and animals use respiration process to generate energy in form of ATP that is needed for basic functions such a growth and movement. During this process, nutrients such as glucose are combined with oxygen to yield energy in form of ATP, and also water and carbon dioxide as by-products. 
Unlike photosynthesis, which uses carbon dioxide and water to yield nutrients (simple sugars) and oxygen gas, respiration uses oxygen and nutrients, to yield carbon dioxide and water, we can therefore they are antagonistic processes.

Lynna [10]

Answer:

Malignant melanoma cells would have active telomerases that constantly replenish and lengthen telomeres.

Explanation:

Telomerase can be described as enzymes which add the repetitive sequences called telomeres at the end of a chromosome. Telomeres can be described as repetitive sequences at the end of the chromosome which are involved in protecting the chromosome from any damage.

In a normal skin cell, the telomeres will shorten with time. But in a malignant skin cell, the telomerase will add the repetitive sequence again and again. The telomers will not be able to shorten.
