Explain how proteins in the leaves change into nitrates
leaves decay then ammonia forms nitrifying bacteria converting into ammonia nitrate
2 of 9
explain one way animals bodies are adapted to reduce heat loss
thick fur insulates by trapping air particles
3 of 9
Write about biochemical adaptations to very cold climates.
contain enzymes with lower optimum temperatures but cells do not freeze as freezing would damage cells
4 of 9
Why do scientists publish their results?
so other scientists can gather further evidence or further their own work. so they can gain credit for their work or so work can be checked
5 of 9
how do plant fertilisers increase crop yield?
fertilisers replace essential elements used by previous crop / provide extra essential elements + used to build plant amino acids
