Biodiversity

The overall purpose of the Calvin cycle is to convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into glucose, a form of energy storage used by plants. This process occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells and is essential for the growth and development of plants.

Biodiversity is short for biological diversity, which refers to the variety and variability of plant and animal life in a particular habitat or ecosystem. It encompasses differences in species, genetic diversity within species, and variation in ecosystems.

The Latin meaning of biodiversity is the complete existence of species and genes in the ecosystem. All the organisms depend on each other for survival.

A basic food chain starts with a primary producer and has a chain of primary, secondary, and tertiary predators. This would start with algae as the primary producer, minnows as the primary predator, sunfish as the secondary predator and pike as the tertiary predator.

The Kingdom Protista comprises eukaryotic organisms that do not fit into other major kingdoms like plants, animals, or fungi. This kingdom includes a diverse group of organisms such as algae, protozoa, and slime molds. Members of the Kingdom Protista can be unicellular, colonial, or multicellular.

Biophilia is the innate human instinct or affinity towards nature and other living organisms. It suggests that humans have a natural instinct to seek connections with nature and other forms of life for physical and mental well-being. This concept is often used in architecture and design to create spaces that promote human health and well-being.

Chondroblasts are responsible for producing cartilage matrix components such as collagen and proteoglycans. They play a crucial role in the growth and maintenance of cartilage tissue. Additionally, chondroblasts can differentiate into chondrocytes, which are mature cartilage cells responsible for maintaining the cartilage matrix.

Simple. All of the millions of different life forms (the diversity of life) have come about by natural selection, whereby random mutations in the genes have either succeeded or failed. But all life can be traced back to a common single-celled origin. Thus we have the unity of life where we (possibly) share more than 50 % of our DNA with a crocodile.eg:analogous organs,homologous organs

The tree of life would show unity due to the fact that all modern life probably originated from common ancestors (the further back you go, the more closely related we are), while the diversity is shown by the fact that while we are all related, life has branched off in very radical ways over the millenia.

marine biome

f*ck the person who put marine biome because that's b*llshit

The most diverse biome is actually the wetlands but many still assert that it is the tropcial rain forest.

Some of the places where biodiversity is most abundant include tropical rainforests, coral reefs, and estuaries. These areas support a wide variety of plant and animal species due to their complex and interconnected ecosystems.

Threats to biodiversity include habitat destruction, pollution, climate change, invasive species, and overexploitation of natural resources. These factors can lead to loss of species, disruption of ecosystems, and ultimately impact the overall health and balance of the environment.

Abiotic factors in an aquatic ecosystem include sunlight, temperature, water flow, dissolved oxygen levels, pH, salinity, and nutrient availability. These factors play a crucial role in shaping the characteristics and functions of the ecosystem and influencing the distribution and abundance of aquatic organisms.

Major source of energy is stored Fat in body. About 10 to 15 kg in average adult man of 70 kg weight. It gives 9 kilo calories (Calories.)/ gram of weight. For immediate release of energy, you have Glycogen stored in liver and muscles. About 150 grams each. Then about 1 gram/kg/day is broken down from body. Also other amine acids than 20 amine acids required by body are broken down to give you enegry. ( There are over 300 amine acids are found in nature.) Both give 4 kilocalories/ gram of weight. Glucose enters after Glycolysis and others enter in TCA cycle via Acetyl co A, to give enery to you in biological oxidation.

There are three parts. A pentose sugar,phosphate group and a nitrogenous base.

Biodiversity is believed to be the result of evolution through natural selection, which drives the process of species adaptation to their environment. This diversity is further influenced by ecological interactions and environmental factors, leading to the wide array of species and ecosystems we observe on Earth.

BIODIVERSITY By Daniel Olsen Biodiversity interacts with our life majorly. We would not survive without it. By the large grow in greenhouse gasses by the past several years it has effected our Earths biodiversity at large.If our Earths biodiversity gets too damaged we could lose our fresh water causing larger water restrictions ,our reefs and our Alpine Areas.There would be more bushfires and effect our lives,home and property.It would spread Tropical diseases and parisites.There will be a large spread of weeds ,pests and bugs. It will damage or destroy our coastal areas and beaches.There will be a loss of Rainforests and jungles causing more deserts.

Buttress roots, also called stilt roots or prop root, are large roots on all sides of a shallowly rooted tree that prevent the tree from falling over. They are usually found in nutrient-poor rainforest soils and do not penetrate to deeper layers. Most mangroves trees have these type of roots.

Species are finite categories in which individual fauna fall into. They are typically characterized by an inability to interbreed with other species and create viable offspring. While a horse and a donkey can create a mule, the mule is in almost all cases sterile and thereby not a viable offspring. Biodiversity is created by having many different species. Speciation (the process in which new species come to exist) is responsible for creating biodiversity.

Eels can vary in size depending on the species, but they generally range from a few inches to several feet in length. The largest species, the giant moray eel, can grow up to 10 feet long.

The largest group of the Kingdom Protista is the algae. Algae are photosynthetic organisms that can range from single-celled to multicellular forms. They play a vital role in the ecosystem by producing a significant amount of oxygen and serving as the base of the food chain in aquatic environments.

Consequentialist is an/a individual/group that put human happiness first before anything else. These group also is an objective base thinker. Their actions are based on "goal" determined.

So, we do need the consequentialist spirit in order to gain our goal. They also important as they will keep reminding the rest of the world the importance of human comfort, conservation and happiness to the world.

My conclusion would be, as a whole for the community to function, the consequentialist are much importance as the other two(virtue & deontological).

The End.

Medical researchers are concerned when biodiversity decreases because it can lead to an increase in disease transmission. Biodiverse ecosystems provide a natural balance that helps regulate disease-carrying organisms. With reduced biodiversity, there is a higher risk of diseases spilling over from animals to humans.

One main difference between organisms in the domain Archaea and domain Eukarya is the presence of a nucleus. Eukaryotes have a membrane-bound nucleus, while archaea do not. Additionally, eukaryotes typically have membrane-bound organelles, such as mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum, which are absent in archaea.
