Answer:
1. ridges and trenches (either answer is acceptable)
2. mid-atlanitc
3. subduction zone
4. molten
5. oceanic trenches
Explain:
6. Rocks in the ocean eventually get subducted back into earths mantle due to slab pull. New rocks form at mid-ocean ridges as ridge forces two plates to diverge.
Glycogen provides long-term energy storage.
Glycogen is an example of a carbohydrate which is a polysaccharide that acts as a long-term energy storage compound in animals.
<h2>Further Explanation
</h2>
- Living organisms require energy in order to undertake their daily activities such as growth and development, locomotion, gaseous exchange, etc. To do so they obtain nutrients for short-term and long-term energy source.
- Carbohydrates are the major energy source for living organisms, however, living organisms may use other sources of energy such as proteins or fats when carbohydrates is out of stock or not available.
Energy source in animals
- Animals use simple carbohydrates such as glucose obtained from diet for short-term energy sources.
- These simple carbohydrates may also be stored for future use in the form of glycogen, which makes glycogen a long-term energy source, to be used when need arises.
- When glucose levels are low in the body hormones in the body trigger the breakdown of glycogen to glucose.
- Other sources of energy such as proteins and fats are used when carbohydrates storage is depleted, for example during starvation.
Energy source in plants
- In plants, on the other hand, simple carbohydrates are similarly used as a short term source of energy. Additionally, simple molecules such as glucose are stored in the form of starch for long-term source of energy for the plants.
<em><u>Why other Choices are incorrect</u></em>:
<h3>Glucagon </h3>
- Glucagon is the hormone that increases the blood glucose level to avoid it from dropping below optimum level.
- The hormone acts on the liver to stimulate the breakdown of glycogen to glucose, a process called glycogenolysis, and the glucose is released to the blood stream.
<h3>
Glucose
</h3>
- Glucose is a simple carbohydrate classified as monosaccharides. It acts as the short term source of energy in both plants and animals.
- It is readily broken down during the process of cellular respiration to yield energy in the form of ATP, which is then used to drive cellular processes.
<h3>Cellulose
</h3>
- Cellulose is an example of a complex carbohydrates known as polysaccharides.
- It is found in plants cells lining the cell wall of all plant cells which is one of the key distinguishing feature between plant cells and animal cells.

Answer: Workplace electrocusion
Explanation:
The human body is a good conductor of electricity. The workplace electrocution occurs due to electric shock. This leads to workplace injuries that may often lead to disabilities and can also be fetal. The workplace electrocution can also lead to cardiac arrest, and tissue damage due to thermal burns. The severity of injuries may depend upon the intensity of electricity, health of the victim and how the current flows in the body.
According to the given situation, the freshly mopped floor is a source of water and water, as well as metal, which is a good source of electricity. The electric wire is an energized source of electrical energy that will allow the flow of electric current in the body, as well as contact with the floor containing water, which will enhance the effect. Thus this is an example of workplace electrocution.
It would be warmer which would effect evaporation. So, there would be more precipitation.
Answer is stretch receptors.
Stretch receptors respond to the distention of muscle wall of the bladder and are neurologically linked to the medulla. Stretch receptors in the bladder signal the parasympathetic nervous system to stimulate muscarine receptors, present in the detrusor muscle, to make him contract. This leads to the expulsion of urine.
