<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is first; some of the energy disperses as heat.

<u>Explanation:</u>

First law of thermodynamics states that energy is always conserved in a system which means that energy can neither be created, nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another.

Second law of thermodynamics states that all spontaneous processes are accompanied by increase in entropy or randomness.

Hence, the correct answer is first; some of the energy disperses as heat.

Why does the twilight zone of the ocean have the greatest variation in temperature?
Dafna11 [192]
A major study has shed new light on the dim layer of the ocean called the "twilight zone" -- where mysterious processes affect the ocean's ability to absorb and store carbon dioxide accumulating in our atmosphere.

Transport of D- and L- glucose proceeds at the same rate down an electrochemical gradietn by which ofhte following processes?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Explanation:

Active transport is the movement of molecules or substance from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration across a cell membrane against the concentration gradient.

Active transport requires cellular energy and are of two types:

primary active transport that uses adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and secondary active transport that uses an electrochemical gradient.

Active transport helps in the uptake of glucose in the intestines.

Cotransport or secondary active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane it uses electrochemical potential difference that is created by pumping ions in or out of the cell.

Cotransport helps in the transport of glucose across the cell membrane.

The Earth is about 4.6 billion years old. However, the oldest sea floor is only about 180 million years old. What do you think i
natita [175]

Answer:

The seafloor is only 180 million years old due to the process of subduction. The floor of the sea's tends to get colder and denser with the passage of time. At a certain time, the seafloor becomes so dense that it sinks in the upper mantle. The Earth's crust cannot undergo this process and hence has oldest rocks. We can say that the seafloor is less than 180 million years old because it is typically recycled back into the mantle of the Earth.
