Why is it important that living organisms not reach equilibrium in the concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide?

Biology

Mashcka [7]2 years ago

Answer:

The living organisms must not reach equilibrium in the concentration of oxygen and carbon dioxide so that the Exchange of gases continues . Otherwise respiration and photosynthesis will stop.

Explanation:

  • Gases move along the concentration gradient i.e. from their higher concentration to lower concetration.
  • If living  organisms reach a equilibrium of carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration, then The gases will not move in and out of the cells.
  • This is because at state of equilibrium the concentration of gases on both side become equal and the movement completely ceases.
  • If gaseous exchange in the body stops the process of respiration and photosynthesis in Plants and respiration in animal will completely stop.

If the ease of oxygen pickup depends on oxygen concentration, would respiration be easier in air or in water?
irinina [24]

Answer:

Air

Explanation:

depending on the concentration of Oxygen in any of the  medium- air or water, Oxygen pick up will be easier in air than water. This is because the energy barrier for the exchange of gases is higher in a liquid medium than in a gaseous medium.

Mendel’s law of independent assortment says that the inheritance of one trait is not influenced by inheritance of another trait.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

In meiosis I, the arrangement of any homologous chromosome along the center plane ( forgot the name for this) is independent of the arrangement of the other homologous chromosomes. There is thus equal probability for the chromosome to be in either of the two daughter cells after meiosis I. This is observed in meiosis 2 metaphase as well where the arrangement of each Sister chromatid about the ‘center plane’ is independent of each other. This independence observed during metaphase of meiosis I and meiosis II allows for chromatids to be in either gamete formed in equal probability, not affecting by other chromatids thus inheritance of one trait is not affected by the inheritance of another trait.
