Explain how the production of oxygen through photosynthesis by cyanobacteria affected the composition of the atmosphere and the development of other organisms. 23. A rock sample from Mars is reported to contain fossil evidence of life. What kind of fossil would you expect it to be? Explain your answer. 24.

Explain how Mendel’s particulate mechanism differed from the blending theory of inheritance. • Blending: parents genes mixed • Particulate: parents genes still retain identity\ The blending theory was that genetic material contributed by the two parents mixes in a manner analogous to the way blue and yellow make green

Biology Major substances: Organic compounds – are compounds that contain carbon and were originally made by living things e.g. carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ nucleic acids Inorganic compounds – are compounds do not contain carbon as a main element Organic compounds | Composition | Function | Proteins | Carbon‚ hydrogen‚ oxygen and nitrogen | Used in the structure‚ storage‚ movement and transport of cells for growth and repair. | Lipids | Carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen | Stores energy

Government Involvement Regarding “Green Policy” Energy‚ natural resources‚ conservation—these are all hot topics in Washington today. But‚ to what extent should the United States government be responsible? America is in desperate need of a “green revolution” (Friedman). However‚ the problem is not only America’s; the entire globe suffers from the effects of global warming (graph). While it is undeniable that the American government needs to develop initiatives regarding energy conservation and

fuse to form a diploid zygote that divides by mitosis and develop into a multicellular organism. 5) Mitosis and meiosis are alike in the respect that go through most of the same phases‚ and are used for reproduction purposes. However‚ meiosis results in sexual reproduction‚ in order to create multicellular organisms‚ occurring in only animals‚ humans‚ fungi‚ and plants‚ whereas mitosis occurs in all organisms. Mitosis only goes through one division‚ has the same number of chromosomes‚ and creates

Temperature range Background: All organisms are adapted to a particular environment with its characteristic temperature range. The temperature range allows the organism’s enzymes to control its metabolism by operating at their optimum efficiency within this range. Some organisms are adapted to live at high temperatures (80 - 100oC) and these are called thermophiles

example of living organisms that is autotrophs that is not plants are red algae and cyanobacteria. • Plants do not need cellular respiration because they carry out photosynthesis Answer: False. Plants also undergo respiration like any other living organisms to generate ATP for endergonic reactions. • Chlorophyll is the only photosynthetic pigment. Answer: False. Chlorophyll is not the only photosynthetic pigment but it is the most abundant type of photosynthetic pigment which is
