Imagine I planted a seed in the ground and a tree grew. Explain where all that matter came from?
Answer:
The mass (increasingly bigger size) of a tree comes from the soil. Which makes sense, right? After all, we are taught that plants need soil (enhanced “dirt”) to grow. According to Michigan State University Extension, problems typically arise when asked to explain why there isn’t a big hole around a tree. If the tree is using soil, then there must be less soil around it. But studies show virtually no difference in the amount of soil in a pot when a seed is planted from the amount of soil in the same pot when the plant from that seed is harvested. So where does the mass come from?
The mass of a tree is primarily carbon. The carbon comes from carbon dioxide used during photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants convert the sun’s energy into chemical energy which is captured within the bonds of carbon molecules built from atmospheric carbon dioxide and water. Yes, the carbon from carbon dioxide in the air we breathe out ends up in “food” molecules (called glucose) each of which contains 6 carbon atoms (and 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms).
Explanation:
So the mass comes from the soil but its primarily carbon. HOPED THIS HELPED YOU!

B.) The exact age of a fossil
C.) An organism’s vestigial structure
D.) An organism’s homologous structures
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Answer:
The answer would be B.

This is because absolute dating methods determine how much time has passed since rocks formed by measuring the radioactive decay of isotopes or the effects of radiation on the crystal structure of minerals.
How are flowers and fruits connected?
When a grain of pollen reaches the stigma, it creates a pollen tube for the sperm to journey down the style and fertilize the ovule; fertilized ovules become seeds. Fertilization is the death of the flower, as the petals drop or wither at this point and the ovary starts to enlarge and ripen into what we know as fruit

On the basis of Thomson’s model of an atom, explain how the atom is neutral as a
whole.
Answer:
As per Thomson’s model of an atom, the number of electrons (negatively charged) are
equal to the number of protons (positively charged) in an atom. Hence the +ve and –ve
charges are neutralized by each other that makes atom neutral as a whole.
Explanation:
Hope it's answer you plz mark as Brainlist
Answer:
Explanation:
Accorrding to Thomson's model of the atom, an atom consists of both negatively and positively charged particles. The negatively charged particles are embedded in the positively charged sphere.. Thus, by counterbalancing each other's effect, they make an atom neutral.

A teacher prepared a dihybrid cross Punnett square and a key to dominant and recessive traits.
According to the information shown above, what is the appearance of offspring X?
0 Tall, round
Short, wrinkled
O Short, round
O Tall, wrinkled
Answer and Explanation:
There are four phenotypes: tall, short, round, wrinkled
Let us say that for the high trait, tall dominates over short. For the shape trait, round dominates over wrinkled. This is:
T allele determines tall plantst allele determines short plantsR allele determines rounded seedsr allele determines wrinkled seeds.The fact that parental are dihybrid, tells us that their genotypes were TtRr
Cross:
Parental) TtRr x TtRr
