23
Q

Cellular respiration

A

A set of metabolic reactions and processes that place in the cell of an organism to convert chemical energy from oxygen molecules or nutrition into power

24
Q

Formula for aerobic cellular respiration

A

Fuel+oxygen = co2 + h20

C6h12o6 + 6o2 = 6co2 + 6h2o + energy(atp)

25
Formula for an Anerobic respiration
Fuel = lactic acid+ energy
26
Glucosesis
Is the metabolic or mathematical pathway that converts glucose into prior to a sequence of 10 enzymes catalyse reactions
27
Herbivore
Only eat plants
28
Carnivores
Only eat meat
29
What is a motorcycle
Plants (consumer) = herbivor(1st level consumer) = carnivore(2nd consumer) = decomposer
30
What is biomagnification
Biomagnification is a process where the concentration of a toxin increases as it moves through a food web
31
Example of biomagnification
Plaktin(1ppm) = anemone(2ppm) = lobster(8ppm) = human(50ppm)
32
What is an energy pyramid
energy is passed along the food chain from trophic level to trophic level only 10% of its energy is passed along
33
And example of an energy pyramid
Plants(100 units) = herbivor(10 units) = carnivore(1 unit)
34
What is biomass
The weight of all living things
35
What is an edge to spaces
And introduced species is one that has been released into an exit ecosystem where it does not naturally occur at food web is delicately as delicate especially with new spaces
36
What is carrying capacity
Maximum population in an ecosystem
37
What is exponential growth
Population quickly rising at an increasing rate
38
What is a biosphere
The strip around the earth that supports life
39
What is a food web
I web of consumers and a graphical representation of what it’s white and ecological
40
What is the food chain
A food chain is a lane network of links in a food web starting from reduce produce organise an ending and X prejudice basis
41
Formula for photosynthesis
6co2 + 12h2o = c6h12o6 +oxygen + water
42
Atmosphere what is it
A blanket of gases that surround the earth to the height of approximately 445 km mostly nitrogen/oxygen which supports life on earth
43
What is the crust
What is the crustThe crust includes landforms rocks and soil mostly solid rock rigid and strong it varies in thickness
44
What is a hydrosphere
Water on or at the surface of the earth including ocean lakes/rivers/rain/mist
45
What is the mantle
The mantle is mostly solid rock temperature between 500°C and 2000°C is about 9000 2900 km thick
46
What is the outer core
Molten iron and eat and nickel temperature is between 4000°C and 6000°C about 2300 thick
47
What is the inner core
Mostly I am sold solid to the extreme pressure temperature about 7000°C and 1200 km thick
48
What’s the theory of plate tectonic’s
The theory states that the earths solid outer crust the lesser lithosphere is separated into plates that move over earth
49
What is continental drift
Continental drift is the gradual movement of the continents across the earth surface through geological time
50
Divergent
Divide
51
Convergent
Collide
52
Transform
Slide
53
What can happen happen at convergent plate boundaries
Subduction or collision
54
What can happen at divergent plate boundaries
Divide
