Answer:
A)100mL B)50mL C)The second option D)Hypoosmotic Environment
Explanation:
The average Na concentration in the seas and oceans of the world is around 3,5% which mean that in 100 ml of sea water, there is around 3,5 grams of Na.
The weight of one mol of NaCl is 58,44 grams. For 3,5 grams of NaCl, we get 3,5/58,44 = 0,060 mol of NaCl which is 0,060x1000 = 60 mmol/100ml. According to this and the information given in the question about the secretion of the salt glands', if the average sodium concentration is 600mmol/L, we have 60*10 = 600mmol/L so it would take 100 mililiters of water to excrete.
If the average Na concentration of the salt gland's secretion were 300 mmol/L, only 50 mililiters of water would be needed to excrete the same sodium load.
The second option of secretion is hyperosmotic to seawater because the concentration is higher.
Osmoregulation is the process of balancing the amount of water and salt between the body of the organism and its surrounding environment. For salt glands to be advantageous for osmoregulation, they need to be in a hypoosmotic environment.

Answer:
The correct answer is chemical energy from broken bonds is transformed into mechanical energy.
Explanation:
Muscle contraction need energy in form of ATP.ATP contain 2 high energized phosphoanhydride bonds.
The hydrolysis of phosphoanhydride bonds releases chemical energy which is transformed into mechanical energy for helping the muscles to move.
A life expectancy of 2 to 5 years less than peers.
Answer: The hydrogen bonds holding the base pairs together in a DNA molecule are relatively weak compared to other chemical bonds. ... The new nucleotides join together to form the sugar-phosphate backbone of a new strand of DNA. The result is two DNA molecules identical to the original.

Answer:
Carbon moves from the atmosphere to plants. In the atmosphere, carbon is attached to oxygen in a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2). Through the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is pulled from the air to produce food made from carbon for plant growth. Carbon moves from plants to animals.
