Life on Earth is carbon based, so all animals with skeletons and shells use carbon.
A more 'common' element used in skeletons and shells is calcium.
No :P It uses electricity, and so doesn't use carbon compounds.
respiration- The body takes in oxygen and glucose and turns it into carbon dioxide. Glucose is a mix of Carbon D, oxygen, and water. The body uses the oxygen, gets rid of the carbon dioxide and uses some of the water( the rest of the water is waste).
Everything living is made of carbon. Carbon comes in many forms from coal to diamonds. Carbon also combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. Carbon is present in all organic compounds. As for practical uses; carbons is used for a wide variety of things. Most of these are industrial. Carbon is used to make artificial diamonds that mostly go into cutting devices, i.e. diamond toothed saw blades; though some are used for jewelry. Carbon is also used in air filters to reduce odors and in water filters to reduce impurities. It is also added to iron to create steal.
Chloroplasts - the process is known as photosynthesis.
It uses electricity, most of which is generated by burning fossil fuels. This releases additional greenhouse gas in the form of carbon dioxide.
Carbon Uses are for gasoline and plastic.
Carbon Uses are for gasoline and plastic.
shells have a many uses like, gardening, good source of calcium, and as a ferteliser
Answer: A Photoheterotroph Feedback: *Energy source: -Phototroph: uses light -Chemotroph: uses redox reactions from an organic or inorganic compound *Carbon source: -Autotroph: uses CO2 -Heterotroph: uses an organic source of carbon
there shells are uses for protection against predators
Oyster drills
The most common uses for carbon would include printing, pencil manufacture, and as graphite lubricant.
Radiocarbon dating is a technique that uses the decay of carbon-14.
intructures in build
An apple tree obtains carbon atoms for building new cell materials through photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, the tree uses sunlight to convert carbon dioxide from the air into glucose, which is a form of sugar. The tree then uses this glucose to create new cell materials such as cellulose for its structure and fruit for reproduction.
Chitin in crab and lobster shells can be used to make contact lenses and dis-solvable stitches.
When the polyps that build the brain coral die, they turn into limestone. Since limestone is a hard rock , the coral does not have any predators because the rock is unappetizing and it's to hard for the predators to chew.
