What chemicals flow in cycles from the nonliving environment to living things and back again?
Chemical processes cycle energy from the sun through living things in a process called photosynthesis. Only plants photosynthesize and they do this to make food for themselves and other organisms. They collect energy from the sun and use it, along with water and other nutrients by converting them to sugars.
What is the process used to break down glucose into ATP that is usable by the cell?
cellular respirationRespiration is used to break down glucose into ATP. The whole process is completed in two steps. First is gycolysis, which is completed in the cytoplasm and the other is Kreb's cycle, completed in mitochondria.
Which terms describes the process of breaking down of sugar or other organic compounds in the absence of oxygen which generates ATP and produces organic acids and or alchol?
Anaerobic respiration
How is the rock cycle like other natural cycles on earth?
The rock cycle is like any other cycle because it is where rocks are formed, reformed and destroyed. This is similar to any other type of cycle
Significance of Krebs cycle?
Krebs cycle is process and a syage of respiration carried out in the cells mitochondrion ,Krebs cycle produces alot of reduced NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) compared to other stages of respiration...these reduced NAD carries a great deal of energy,meaning one reduced NAD molecule can form 3 molecules of ATP (energy yielding molecule) this formation of 3 atps occurs also in the mitochondrion in a process called chemisomosis. now since Krebs cycle forms alot of reduced NAD, the more reduced NAD formed the more ATP prodcuced through chemisomosis,so more energy u get to carry on ure daily metabolism (meaning more energy to walk or work ;P)
The Krebs cycle produces NAD electron carriers and carbon dioxide?
The Krebs cycle, or citric acid cycle, produces 4 NADH electron carriers and carbon dioxide. Other products include FADH2 and ATP.
Why the is water cycle called the water cycle?
Cycles are things that repeat themselves...like a circle. The water cycle, like all other cycles, has no beginning or end.Simply:water vapour evaporates from the sea, lakes rivers and other masses of water when the water is heated by the sun.The water vapour rises into the atmosphere and condenses to form clouds.Water falls as precipitation ( rain snow ice etc) onto the land and ends up in the rivers lakes and sea and the process starts again.Main parts are evaporation condensation precipitation.This is a basic version there are other things that are sources of water such as transpiration from vegetation.Because it is a cycle of water .First evaporation then condensation then precipitation and all over again.The Water Cycle is called a water cycle because it's a cycle (repeating steps) and in this cycle, it's about water being 'recycled'lol potatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotatopotato
What is the name of the stellar process in which the fusion of hydrogen produces other elements?
Nucleosyntheis
Is water vapour a part of the water cycle?
Yes - after water evaporates from the ocean, lakes, and other bodies of water and before it condenses to form clouds, it is in vapor form.
Is condensation a process for changing liquid water into water vapor?
NO!! It's the other way around!! Condensation is from Water Vapour --> Liquid Water
What process makes oxygen?
I am not sure that there is such a process that produces ATP and oxygen, however, there are 2 processes that produce ATP, while one reqires oxygen, and the other does not. The process that produces ATP and does require oxygen is called aerobic respiration. While the process that produces ATP but does not need oxygen is called anaerobic respiration.
What are the main part of water cycle and why it is called a cycle?
It is called a cycle because ether is no beginning or end the process repeats and repeats and repeats. Simply: water vapour evaporates from the sea, lakes rivers and other masses of water when the water is heated by the sun. The water vapor rises into the atmosphere and condenses to form clouds. Water falls as precipitation ( rain snow ice etc) onto the land and ends up in the rivers lakes and sea and the process starts again. Main parts are evaporation condensation precipitation. This is a basic version there are other things that are scources of water such as transpiration from vegetation.
Identify the carbon-containing molecule that humans exhale and the process that produces it?
We exhale carbon dioxide. The process that produces it is respiration, the physiological process that enables animals to exchange carbon dioxide, the primary product of cellular respiration, for fresh air (oxygen and other molecules).
How does a truck motor work?
The same as any other combustion engine. You can research combustion process for more. It's a 4 cycle process.
Why do plants need stems?
the stem is how they get their water and the cycle produces
What is the other word for water vapour?
miststeam
Is water vapour not one of the constituents in air?
Water vapour is a constituents in air because water vapour rises in the atmosphere & is always present in the atmospere in some or the other quantity.Also 0.0001% of air consist water vapour
