One disadvantage of having a large surface area to volume ratio is the heat loss. An organism that has larger surface area has high rate heat gain and heat loss. Therefore they need to eat or acquire nutrients faster in order to sustain life.
Industrial agriculture promote farming techniques that are ecologically destructive by using fertilizers and using processed feeds to feed the animals. Fertilizers contain harmful chemicals that may not be seen on the plants since its main function is to kill the pests that eats the plants. What makes it destructive is when the particles of the fertilizer is mixed with water and then leached into the soil into the water table. The once pure water table is now contaminated. The accumulation of various chemicals from the pesticide can cause the death of aquamarine life and even humans. Also, it can destroy the components of the soil overtime because it can interact with other compounds found in the soil to create a harmful product.
Answer:
Mitochondria and the chloroplast
Explanation:
Electron transport refers to the transfer of of electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via a reduction-oxidation reaction.
In the mitochondria the process is called Oxidative phosphorylation whereas in the Chloroplast it is called Photo-phosphorylation since it utilizes light.
Chemiosmotic mechanisms allow the movement of ions across a semi-permeable membrane down their electrochemical gradient.
In both mitochondria and chloroplast,have these mechanisms for the production of ATP .
Answer:
B. Granulocyte
Explanation:
Granulocyte is the type of white blood cell with fragments in its cytoplasm. These fragments usually help in the digesting the cells of the foreign body(pathogenic organisms).
There are three main types of Granulocytes which are known as the Neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. They all perform variety of functions ranging from phagocytosis to cell lysis of foreign bodies.
