What gases are found in water?

Nitrogen 48% - found directly in air and sea, however must be bound or fixed into chemical reactions to be usuable by most of the organisms. Oxygen 36% - source of oxygen is through photosynthesis of the plant life in the ocean, and the diffusion of oxygen in the atmosphere Carbon dioxide 15% - goes very quickly from atmosphere to water, however takes longer to change back from water to air.


How does nuclear energy become electricity?

Updated AnswerNuclear energy in the form of uranium primary energy source is transformed into electrical energy as secondary energy source (or energy carrier) through the following steps:uranium mininguranium milling (concentration and purification)uranium conversion (into metal uranium, uranium dioxide, uranium hexaflouride, etc...)uranium enrichment (only for nuclear reactors that require uranium enriched in U-235)uranium fabrication into what is called fresh nuclear fuel assemblies (or elements or bundles or rods)loading the nuclear fuel in the nuclear reactor of the nuclear power plantthe nuclear fuel, through its irradiation in the nuclear reactor, undergoes nuclear fission and produces thermal energy (heat)the heat (or thermal energy) is extracted in the reactor coolant system and used in a turbo-electric generator system to produce electricity.The used (or called spent) fuel is then replaced by new fuel to continue the electricity generation process.The discharged nuclear fuel (called spent or used fuel) after being irradiated in the nuclear reactor) and taken out from the reactor is temporarily stored to get rid of its major part of its decay heat and level of radioactivity. Then either: reprocessed for reuse of the remaining uranium and the produced plutonium in the fuel during fuel irradiation in the reactor, ordisposed of in a final disposal/storage installation.AnswerNuclear presents in the form of heat. The heat is used to make steam. The steam motivates a steam turbine which works a generator.

What happens in our body during cell respiration?

During cell respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce energy in the form of ATP. This process occurs in the mitochondria of the cell. Carbon dioxide and water are byproducts of cell respiration, which are then eliminated from the body.

The term nitrogen fixation refers to the?

biological process where certain microorganisms convert atmospheric nitrogen into forms that plants can use for growth, such as ammonia or nitrate. This process is essential for maintaining soil fertility and the overall nitrogen cycle in ecosystems.


How is petroleum converted into usuable energy?

Petroleum is refined into various products like gasoline and diesel through a process called refining. These products are then used in combustion engines to generate energy, which is converted into mechanical work or electricity. The energy stored in petroleum is released through combustion, where the hydrocarbons in the fuel react with oxygen to produce heat, which is then used to power engines and generate electricity.
