a. the evolution of cellular respiration, which used oxygen to harvest energy from organic molecules
b. the persistence of some animal groups in anaerobic habitats
c. the evolution of photosynthetic pigments that protected early algae from the corrosive effects of oxygen

The negative impacts of nonnative species generally outweigh the positive impacts

This is a typical grassland food web. it is also a small picture of an important cycle on earth: the carbon cycle. describe how the carbon gets into this food web. a) bacteria and fungi, the decomposers, recycle carbon from dead organisms. b) carbon is found in the grass and is passed from one level to the next in this food web. eliminate c) all living things give off carbon dioxide as a by-product of respiration and it is released into the atmosphere. d) plants use carbon dioxide as a reactant in photosynthesis, to make usable chemical energy in the form of a sugar.
