Animals take up oxygen and complex oxidizable compounds made by plants, release largely as combustion products carbonic acid and water, partly as simpler reduced compounds, thus using a certain amount of chemical potential energy to produce heat and mechanical forces. Since the latter represent a ...
When discussing energy, absorb might refer to how materials like insulation capture heat from the environment to prevent energy loss. Conversely, reabsorb can be used in scenarios where heat or energy is recaptured and reused within a system, as seen in certain renewable energy technologies. 11 ...
Spray experiment of soil main purpose is to detect in case of rain or irrigation, water-absorbent resin can certain depth of soil to form a layer of insulation to prevent soil loss; ability can absorb a large amount of water saved for use by drought. ...
Explain why the amount of energy used in photosynthesis is so much less than the amount of solar energy that reaches Earth. What is the function of chlorophyll a? Why are the "Dark Reactions" of photosynthesis referred to as "Dark"? a. They do not require light...
Fossil fuel is also said to contain a large amount of nitrogen and scientists believe that nitrogen is responsible for the warming of the earth caused by the earth’s core. Although nitrogen has many important uses it is difficult to extract from certain types of foods, and this means that ...
Evaporation of waterfrom the upper parts of trees especially leaves but also stems, flowers and roots can add to a tree's water loss. Certain tree species are more efficient in managing their rate of water loss and are normally found naturally on drier sites. ...
Absorb:1.To take something in, as through the skin or the intestine. 2.To react withradiationand reduce it in intensity, as with a dose of radiation or transmitted light. See also: Absorbed dose; Absorption;Malabsorption; Reabsorption.
