What is fundamental to all life?

1. Nutrients from which to construct living tissue. 2. Energy to power metabolic activities. 3. Liquid water to serve as a medium in which metabolic activities occur. 4. Appropriate temperatures at which to carry out these processes.


Write 3 ways living things are alike?

Living things share the characteristics of reproduction, growth, and response to stimuli. They also require energy to sustain life processes and have the ability to adapt to their environment through evolution. Finally, living things are all made up of cells, which are the basic structural units of life.


Why are enzymes important in the sustenance of life?

Why are enzymes important in the nourishment of life? According to Johnson, 2012 pg. 42 §, 3) "As one example, the reason we can digest glycogen and starch is that we posses specific enzymes that break the chemical bonds between the glucose monosaccharide's in these molecules." Enzymes make it easy for certain chemical reactions to happen, while singularly or in a group (Johnson, 2012). Other enzymes break down molecules for certain reasons, such as homeostasis the temperature of the body (Johnson, 2012). We need enzymes for biochemical reactions and without these processes (biochemical reactions) would work slowly to even sustain life this is why enzymes are important in the nourishment of life (Johnson, 2012).


What is the water part of the earth?

The water part of the Earth is the hydrosphere, which includes all the water on or near the surface of the planet. It encompasses oceans, lakes, rivers, and groundwater. Water is essential for supporting life and shaping Earth's landscape through erosion and weathering processes.

What 3 Things Make It Possible For Us To Survive On Earth?

The presence of an atmosphere that protects us from harmful radiation and maintains a stable temperature. The availability of water, which is essential for life and numerous biochemical processes. The presence of a diverse range of ecosystem services, such as food production, waste decomposition, and oxygen production by plants, that support and sustain life.


Is the earth found at the center of the milky way?

No. We are in the outer portion of the Milky way about 3/4 of the way to the edge. The center of the Milky Way could not sustain life.


Is there microbes in the center of the earth?

The earth's inner core is mostly solid iron, at a pressure of 3 million atmospheres, and a temperature of almost 6000 K. It would be impossible to sustain any kind of life as we know it under such conditions.

What are the 3 hypothesis about the origin of life on earth?

The three main hypotheses about the origin of life on Earth are: 1) Abiogenesis, which suggests life originated from non-living matter through chemical processes; 2) Extraterrestrial origin, proposing that life arrived on Earth from elsewhere in the universe, such as through meteorite impacts carrying organic molecules; and 3) Panspermia, the idea that life exists throughout the universe and can be propagated through space dust, allowing it to land on suitable planets like Earth and develop further.


Name 3 things that are constantly recycled on earth?

Water, carbon, and nitrogen are constantly recycled on Earth through various processes such as the water cycle, photosynthesis, and decomposition. These elements are essential for the functioning of ecosystems and the sustenance of life on our planet.

What is the characteristics about earth?

Earth is the third planet from the Sun in our solar system and is the only known planet to support life. It has a diverse range of ecosystems, from deserts to rainforests, and is composed of mostly water and land. Earth has a protective atmosphere that shields us from harmful space radiation and allows for moderate temperatures suitable for life to thrive.


Is the world running out of resources?

Yes. Currently the human population needs approximately "3 earth's worth" of resources to sustain its population continually.


If the earth had a twin?

It most likely be from a solar system called Gliese 581c. we can see 3 planets orbiting the small sun (smaller than ours) and the first 2 are to close to have liquid water but the one farthest away is in the right conditions to sustain life and is made of vary similar materials to earth.

What are 3 earth science carriers?

Geologist: Studies the composition, structure, and processes of the Earth's crust. Meteorologist: Studies the atmosphere to forecast weather patterns and climate change. Oceanographer: Studies the oceans and their interactions with the atmosphere and marine life.
