Answer from: paige1616

The correct option is C. Glucose and oxygen

Explanation:

Photosynthesis can be described as a process in which glucose and oxygen are produced from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of light energy. The overall reaction for photosynthesis is:

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

This reaction serves as the main driving energy force for plants and animals. The oxygen produced by plants is released in the atmosphere. This oxygen is taken up by animals for respiration. The glucose produced by the plants serves as the food for animals.

Answer from: Quest

im gonna compare the cells to jobs in factory. give brainliest

job in the factory // cell organelle //

shipping/receiving

department plasma membrane

chief executive officer// nucleus

factory floor // cytoplasm

assembly line// endoplasmic reticulum

workers in the assembly line //ribosomes

finishing/packaging department //golgi apparatus

maintenance crew //lysosomes

support beams (walls, ceilings, floors) //cytoskeleton

power plant //mitochondria/chloroplasts

here's what each part of the cell does:

plasma membrane :

regulates what enters and leaves the cell; where cell makes contact with the external environment

nucleus :

controls all cell activity; determines what proteins will be made

cytoplasm :

contains the organelles; site of most cell activity

endoplasmic reticulum:

where ribosomes do their work

ribosomes :

build the proteins

golgi apparatus :

prepares proteins for use or export

lysosomes :

responsible for breaking down and absorbing materials taken in by the cell

cytoskeleton :

maintains cell shape

mitochondria/chloroplasts :

transforms one form of energy into another

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
