geosphere burying organisms
hydrosphere respiration of marine life
biosphere photosynthesis atmosphere burning things

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the question is asking to match each activity with the sphere to which it adds carbon or CO2.

ANSWERS:

Geosphere = burying organisms

hydrosphere = respiration of marine life

biosphere = photosynthesis atmosphere = burning things

Explanation:

This question describes the types of spheres we have. The respective activities that occur in each sphere that adds CO2 or carbon are as follows:

- Geosphere: This refers to the solid part of the Earth. Dead organisms are buried in the geosphere (soil) where their carbon remains can be deposited.

- Hydrosphere: This constitutes all of the water bodies (sea, river, stream, ocean) on the Earth. When marine organisms respire in water, carbon dioxide (CO2) is released.

- Biosphere: A sphere consisting of all living things (plant, animal, microbes etc.) on Earth. Plants as a living organisms photosynthesize and make use of carbon dioxide to produce glucose, which stores in the plant.

Atmosphere: The gaseous component of the Earth. Burning substances release carbon based gases into the atmosphere.

State whether the following statements are true or False. Hormones in plants travel by the vascular bundle.​

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In plants, hormones travel large throughout the body via the vascular tissue (xylem and phloem) and cell-to-cell via plasmodesmata. In contrast, many animal hormones are produced only in specific glands. Plants do not have specialized hormone-producing glands.

On a plant, stomates are small openings that regulate the passage of air and water vapor to and from the plant. Generally, the stomates open during sunlight and exchange gases with the atmosphere. The stomates of a few specialized desert plants can open only at night. The best explanation for the pattern of stomate opening and closing is that the desert plants are adapted to protect against
(1) harmful insects
(2) dust particles
(3) destructive plant disease
(4) excess water loss
(5) total energy loss

Please help me somebody answer this.

Answers

Answer:

4

Explanation:

this is because when the stomata opens during the day it would lose much water to the atmosphere so it tends to open during the night and close during the day

the answer is 4 because The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the leaf (as well as the loss of water vapor in transpiration) occurs through pores called stomata (singular = stoma). Normally stomata open when the light strikes the leaf in the morning and close during the night.

Importance of antimicrobial emulsion​

Answers

Answer:

Citral is a typical essential oil used in the food, cosmetic, and drug industries and has shown antimicrobial activity against microorganisms. Citral is unstable and hydrophobic under normal storage conditions, so it can easily lose its bactericide activity. Nanoemulsion technology is an excellent way to hydrophilize, microencapsulate, and protect this compound. In our studies, we used a mixed surfactant to form citral-in-water nanoemulsions, and attempted to optimize the formula for preparing nanoemulsions. Citral-in-water nanoemulsions formed at So 0.4 to 0.6 and ultrasonic power of 18 W for 120 seconds resulted in a droplet size of < 100 nm for nanoemulsions. The observed antimicrobial activities were significantly affected by the formulation of the nanoemulsions. The observed relationship between the formulation and activity can lead to the rational design of nanoemulsion-based delivery systems for essential oils, based on the desired function of antimicrobials in the food, cosmetics, and agrochemical industries.

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed to screen a novel compound. The MIC was found to be 10ng/mL. Use the following data to determine the percent recovery for each treatment group. What is the MBC and would you describe the antimicrobial tested as static or cidal?

Novel compound concentration CFU/mL Present Recovery
0ng mL 3.4 x 10^5
10ng/mL 2.4 x 10^5
20ng/mL 6.4 x 10^4
40ng/mL 1.4 x 10^4
80n mL 4.4 x 10^3
160n mL 0

Answers

Answer:

a) Percent recovery

100%, 70.58%, 4.11%, 1.29% , 0%

b) MBC = 160 ng mL

c) Static

Explanation:

A) Calculate the percent recovery for each group

i) for 0ng mL

( 3.4*10^5 / 3.4*10^5 ) * 100 = 100%

ii) for 10ng mL

( (2.4 * 10^5) / (3.4 * 10^5) ) * 100 = 70.58%

iii) for 20ng mL

( ( 6.4 * 10^5 ) / ( 3.4 * 10^5 ) ) * 100 = Nil

iv) for 40 ng mL

( ( 1.4 * 10^4 ) / ( 3.4 * 10^5 ) ) * 100 = 4.11 %

v) for 80 ng mL

( ( 4.4 * 10^3 ) / ( 3.4 * 10^5 ) ) * 100 = 1.29%

vi) for 160 n mL

percentage recovery = 0%

B) what is the MBC

The value of MBC = 160 n mL because at this concentration CFU/mL = 0

c) determine if the antimicrobial tested is static or cidal

condition : If, the ratio of MBC : MIC  is  ≤4 then novel compound is Cidal

MBC / MIC =  160ng / 10ng = 16 : 1

hence we can conclude that the antimicrobial tested is STATIC
