Before this time‚ the atmosphere had a very different chemical make-up‚ high in carbon molecules; unsustainable for life as known today. These prokaryotes

1. Definition Business Ecosystem is a strategic planning concept originated by James F. Moore . The basic definition appears in Moore’s book‚ The Death of Competition: Leadership and Strategy in the Age of Business Ecosystems‚ published in 1996. Moore proposed the following definition: “An economic community supported by a foundation of interacting organizations and individuals – the organisms of the business world. This economic community produces goods and services of value to customers‚ who

are organic molecules and capture in their ATP. Some of these organisms need oxygen to do this but not all of them require it. Organic carbon molecules are the energy source‚ and for waste is carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). CO2 can combine with water to form carbonic acid during cellular respiration. Phenolphthalein can be used to help detect any changes in pH because of production of CO2 during cellular respiration. Phenolphthalein usually appears clear or colorless in acidic solutions‚ and

WHAT IS PHOTOSYNTHESIS? 3 Every day the total amount of energy that is captured through photosynthesis all across our planet is equal to approximately 135 terawatts. Now to put this number into perspective the entire human race consumes approximately 15 terawatts of energy daily. This means that there is 9 times more energy being absorbed every day through photosynthesis‚ as there is energy being consumed by all of mankind (Bridges 2008). In order to fully understand photosynthesis

Answers to Photosynthesis Practice AP Biology 1. Draw a picture of the chloroplast and label the stroma‚ thylakoid‚ thylakoid lumen (space)‚ inner membrane‚ outer membrane. 2. Using 18O as the basis of your discussion‚ explain how we know that the oxygen released in photosynthesis comes from water. When the oxygen in water has the radioactively labeled oxygen‚ the gas released from photosynthesis also has the labeled oxygen. This shows that the oxygen gas given off during photosynthesis comes from

the functioning of TWO different ecosystems at risk.’ An ecosystem is the dynamic complex of plant‚ animal and micro-organism communities and their non-living environment as a functional unit. Ecosystems are systems through which incoming solar energy is captured and channelled through a hierarchy of life forms. Each ecosystem has its own characteristic plant and animal community. Nature of change refers to the natural or human induced change towards an ecosystem. Humans play a role in maintaining

Oxygen Exchange and Transport Oxygen exchange or respiration takes place at a respiratory surface; a boundary between the external environment and the interior of the body. Gas exchange is the process by which oxygen and carbon dioxide (the respiratory gases) move in opposite directions across an organism’s respiratory membranes‚ between the air or water of the external environment and the body fluids of the internal environment. Oxygen is needed by cells to extract energy from organic molecules
