How many valence electrons does carbon have? Is this atom satisfied? Explain.
Answer:
4 valence electrons
Explanation:
Because of the relative stability, these atoms often form covalent bonds rather than ionic bonds that need a charge. One example is Carbon. It has 4 valence electrons, so it can make a 4+ or a 4- charge.
Answer:
Carbon has 4 valence electrons. It is not satisfied. To be satisfied, it needs to covalently bond with 4 electrons to achieve octet (8 valence electrons).

Which of the following is not a reason that nonnative species are reared outside their native ecosystems?
a. They are commercially important.
b. They are used to replace native species.
C. They are used for restocking programs.
d. None of the above
Answer:
D
Explanation:
All of the given reasons are reasons that nonnative species are reared outside their native ecosystems. The correct option is D.
What are nonnative species?Non-native species are animals, plants, and other organisms that do not develop natively in a region but are instead introduced through intentional or unintentional human activity.
Non-native species, unlike invasive species, do not necessarily threaten or threaten the existence of other species within the ecosystem.
Native plants and animals may go extinct as a result of invasive species, which can also decrease biodiversity, compete with native species for scarce resources, and disrupt habitats.
Ecosystems along the coast and in the Great Lakes may be severely disrupted, with significant negative economic effects.
They are employed in restocking efforts, to replace native species, and for commercial purposes.
Thus, the correct option is D.

Two students completed an experiment to determine if pesticide use at local farms was causing fish kills in a local pond. The steps of the experiment are listed below. Select one location to collect water samples in the pond. Collect a 5-mL water sample at 8 am for two days. Measure the amount of pesticide present in each sample using the same measurement tools. After analyzing their data, the students conclude that pesticide runoff from farms is not causing the fish to die in the pond. Which of these statements best describes why their conclusion is not reliable? The pesticide measurements were the dependent variable. The samples were collected at different times. The samples were only collected for two days. The time of sample collection was not an independent variable.
Answer:
The pesticide measurements were the dependent variable
Explanation:
According to this question, an experiment to determine if pesticide used at local farms was causing fish kills in a local pond was conducted by two students. They followed the following steps:
- Select one location to collect water samples in the pond.
- Collect a 5-mL water sample at 8 am for two days.
- Measure the amount of pesticide present in each sample using the same measurement tools
However, after analyzing the data, they concluded that "runoff from farms is not causing the fish to die in the pond". The students' conclusion is not reliable because THE PESTICIDE MEASUREMENTS WERE THE DEPENDENT VARIABLE.
Note that, the dependent variable in an experiment is the measured variable while the independent variable is the manipulated variable. In this case, the students ought to measure the death RATE OF FISH KILLS as the dependent variable instead. The PESTICIDE is the independent variable of the experiment not dependent variable. This was the reason for the unreliability of the conclusion.

A radioactive substance has a half-life of 1.25 million years. What is the age of a rock in which 6.25% of the original radioactive atoms remain? 5 million years old 6.25 million years old 3.75 million years old6 2.5 million years old 1.25 million years old 625 thousand years old
Answer:
The age of the rock is 5 million years
Explanation:
Fraction of radioactive substance remaining = 6.25% = 625/10000 = 1/16
Number of half-lives undergone by the substance to leave behind 1/16 of the original sample
1/16 = (1/2) * (1/2) * (1/2) *(1/2)
Therefore, the substance have decayed 4 times
One half=life = 1.25 million years
Four half-lives = 4 * 1.25 million years = 5 million years
Therefore, the age of the rock is 5 million years

You need to find out why the GBR water is inhibiting (stopping) photosynthesis in the algae. The three major parts of photosynthesis are PSI, PSII and the Calvin cycle. The database has provided 3 things that could be inhibiting photosynthesis: high sea temperatures, paraquat, and diuron.
Answer:
Explanation:
The question is not complete below is the remaining part of the question
Justify your choice by writing a hypothesis to explain how it has stopped the algae from making ATP, NADPH and sugars. You will be able to revise your hypothesis as you do more experiments
Explanation:
The hypothesis will be
High sea temperature inhibit Algae growth
Herbicides reduces algae photosynthesis rate
Algae respond to temperature differently some thrive at a low temperature, some at a moderate temperature but when the temperature is very high the rate of photosynthesis will reduce because they can not undergo the normal body physiological function as a result of harsh environment. In green plant at a very high temperature stomata closes to regulate water loss this prevent Carbon dioxide from coming in and photosynthesis rate reduces
Paraquat and Diuron are herbicide that prevent the growth of plants, when they are sprayed Algae is affected they die from immediate action of this chemical and their colour changes since chloroplast the green pigment is where light hit for photosynthesis to occur when the color changes the active site is affected photosynthesis can no longer occur.
Answer:
Diuron
Explanation:
Increasing the temperature only decreases the sugar, not the ATP and NADPH. I predict that Diuron will be inhibiting photosynthesis because photosynthesis as a whole should not work if Photosystem II is interfered with. Also, because Paraquat only lowers NADPH and sugar and not ATP, Diuron is the only choice left.

Primary productivity
B
Gross primary productivity
С
Net primary productivity
D
Cellular respiration
Answer:
C. Net Primary productivity
Explanation:
In an the food chain of an ecosystem, energy is constantly being gained and most. Producers are the set of organisms that start the energy cycle via the process of photosynthesis. The gross primary productivity (GPP) is the amount of energy that the producer is able to capture from sunlight during photosynthesis.
The rate at which that captured energy is used to produce chemical organic compounds, which served as food, is called the primary productivity of the producer. However, the NET PRIMARY PRODUCTIVITY (NPP) is the energy available to consumers, which is determined by subtracting the energy used by plants via metabolism, from the total energy transformed by the process of photosynthesis. Hence, mathematically, NPP = GPP - R
Where, R = energy lost via respiration.

Two differences between hormones and the nervous system
Answer:
Hormones can be proteins, lipids or cholesterol-based molecules. Neurotransmitters are protein. The main difference between hormones and neurotransmitters is that Hormones are produced in the endocrine glands and released into the bloodstream where they find their movement targets at a distance from their origin. In contrast, Neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic space by a terminal of an excited presynaptic nerve cell and transmit a nerve signal to the neighboring postsynaptic nerve cell.
Explanation:
Answer:
the nervous system and endocrine system (hormones) is that the nervous system uses electrical impulses to send messages through neurons while endocrine glands use hormones to send messages to the target cells through the bloodstream.

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis ____________ .
Glycogen storage space in the liver and muscles is limited. When glycogen stores are full, use of glucose for energy ____________ and oxidation of fat for energy ____________ .
Overall, when carbohydrate intake is excessive, lipogenesis ____________
Increase or decrease
Answer:
When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis decreases.
The process of conversation of stored glycogen in the liver and muscles to glucose is Glycogenesis. It takes place when the blood glucose drops,below certain levels and the body cells need glucose for biochemical activities.Therefore, when there are excess CHO consumption,more glucose would be in the blood,and thus no need for glycogenesis.(breakdown of glycogen)
Glycogen storage space in the liver and muscles is limited. When glycogen stores are full, use of glucose for energy __Increases__________ and oxidation of fat for energy ___decreases_________ .
Definitely, this is a simple logic.As the storage for glycogen is limited,excess glucose move into the blood, since they can not be converted to glycogen.The glucose is expended through cellular reduce the amount in the blood. Therefore, Gluconeogenesis, the production of glucose from non-CHO substances drops. Hence beta- oxidation drops.
Overall, when carbohydrate intake is excessive, lipogenesis increases.The process of converting excess CHO to fatty acids.Biochemically it is the process of converting the Carbon precursor of acetyl co -A to fatty acids.Therefore this increases to synthesized more fatty acids from CHO
