In fermentation, what replaces oxygen in anaerobic respiration?
lactic acid or alcohol |
|
ascorbic acid or peptides |
|
starches |
|
water |
If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.

During the water cycle, water enters the atmosphere as a gas through which process?
evaporation |
|
transpiration |
|
precipitation |
|
both evaporation and transpiration |
The water (hydrologic) cycle describes the movement of water from Earth through the atmosphere and back to Earth. The cycle starts when water evaporates into a gas from bodies of water like rivers, lakes and oceans or transpirates from the leaves of plants.
When light travels between two substances it bends. This is called:
refraction |
|
conduction |
|
reflection |
|
convection |
Because different materials have different refractive indices, light changes speed when passing from one material to another. This causes the light to bend (refraction) at an angle that depends on the change in refractive index between the materials. The greater the difference, the higher the angle of refraction.
