They r talking abt Beach, u dey talk swimming pool. Well, Beach water isnt chlorinated.
STORM2:
I guess it depends on the injury...swimming can be therapeutic when it comes to knee pain...as in swimming can help with knee pains.

Hmmm swimming pools have chlorine in them some even have silver compounds that attack viruses for real oh....I feel infection isn't likely....but then again na naija we dey

Electron transport
chains are the cellular
mechanisms used for
extracting energy from
sunlight in
photosynthesis and also
from redox reactions,
such as the oxidation of
sugars ( respiration).

In chloroplasts, light
drives the conversion of
water to oxygen and
NADP+ to NADPH with
transfer of H+ ions
across chloroplast
membranes.

In
mitochondria, it is the
conversion of oxygen to
water, NADH to NAD+ and
succinate to fumarate
that are required to
generate the proton
gradient.

Electron
transport chains are
major sites of premature
electron leakage to
oxygen, generating
superoxide and
potentially resulting in
increased oxidative
stress smiley

Gliding joint...hmmm carpels, meta carpels(bones in wrist and ankles), bones of the verterbral coloumn....(Cervical, lumbar etc) na wa o....wait oh shey gliding joint na sliding joint? undecided
These questions too tough oh.....
Old age in man? Jisoxx shocked
Hmmm old age is when u start to see a decline (or deterioration) in the biological functions ( difficulty urinating etc) and physical structure (weakened bones) of a man in relation to his age a decline in mental acuity usually follows(memory loss etc). Strangely this is brought abt by the corrosive nature of O2 to our cells (thank God for nitrogen in air oh)
Something abt radicles etc abeg una questions hard joo *packing load* shooo angry
lol.. Pls don't go o.. Fire us whth u questions too wink

well ocean water contains salt, and salt helps in healing because it inhibits bacteria growth.. Therefor the injury will heal rapidly

1) Biomass is the amount
of living matter in a
given habitat,
expressed either as the
weight of organisms
per unit area or as the
volume of organisms
per unit volume of
habitat while
Biogas is any gas fuel
derived from the decay
of organic matter

2)u can gain electricity by converting it to biofuel. I.e burning, combustion e.t.c

Wrong. The reason isn't far fetched, beach water is salty so the water is hypertonic to the RBCs on the Injury, therefore, the RBCs Shrink or become Crenated and Crenation Kills Bacteria.

Okay...when u say wrong I need to be sure which part is wrong so I can learn...smiley
And mehn...beach water has bacteria oh... there are bacteria that are halophytes (I'm trying to say some bacteria survive in salt water so pls forgive my spelling)
So in the end if our mystery injured dude is unfortunate, he'll just complicate things...
U mentioned RBC's....u're saying the water will mix with red blood cells and....kill the bacteria? I don't quite get that....or has the wound already sealed? (Clotted) I'm not sure that the water being salty will help this dude oh....
I'm sorry at first I tot the water was from a swimming pool...

Yes oh! I can confidently confess that I haven't the slightest clue how u can use biomass to generate electricity grin

I know that u can get gas from some insects (termites produce methane).....but how that can be translated into electricity? Nah...no clue

When you say "In a Specialised structure" , you're Limiting it to just One. And Plants store starch in Various Organs Like the seed, the root, stems or fruits. So I don't think there's actually One Particular Organ set aside for the storage of starch. You can prove me wrong tho'
