10. When the leaves of deciduous trees turn different colors in the fall, it is because:
(a) photosynthesis slows down and the other pigments within the leaves can now be seen
(b) photosynthesis speeds up and the other pigments within the leaves can now be seen
(c) None of the above
(d) we like looking at it

Answer 1

• We would all be dead if the sun and plants are present in our surrounding environment.
• If Plants are not present we would all be dead because it provides food as well as oxygen for living.
• Energy Flow and Chemical Cycling in the Biosphere can best be described that producers do photosynthesis in order to prepare their own food and then consumers carrying out cellular respiration.
• Cellular Respiration that results in the lion’s share of ATP occurs in the  Mitochondria.
• C6H12O6 + 6 O2 ———-> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + approx. 32 ATP + Heat

The above chemical reaction describes cellular Respiration in Consumers.

• If you are drowning, you are not getting enough oxygen to your body and it is unable to perform cellular respiration and you will generally die in under 10 minutes.

• Photosynthesis can be described as solar panels being able to use light to make glucose.

• 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Light energy C6H12O6 + 6 O2

This chemical reaction best describes the process of photosynthesis.

• When the leaves of deciduous trees turn different colors in the fall, it is because photosynthesis slows down and the other pigments within the leaves can now be seen.
