STEP ONE: Harvesting Radiant Energy

The first step of photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells. Light photons are absorbed by a pigment called chlorophyll, which is abundant in the thylakoid membrane of each chloroplast. Chlorophyll appears green to the eye because it does not absorb green waves on the light spectrum. It reflects them instead, so that’s the color you see.

STAGE 2: Converting Radiant Energy

After radiant energy from sunlight is absorbed, the plant converts light energy into a usable form of chemical energy to fuel the plant’s cells

STAGE 3: Storing Radiant Energy

The last stage of the photosynthesis process is known as the Calvin-Benson cycle, in which the plant uses atmospheric carbon dioxide and water from soil to convert ATP and NADPH. The chemical reactions that make up the Calvin-Benson cycle occur in the stroma of the chloroplast.

If there's a higher concentration of solutes outside of the cell what will happen

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

If there's a higher concentration of solutes outside of the cell (the solution is known as hypotonic solution) then the cell will swell up as the solutes will flow into the water through the process of osmosis. The cell may also swell up & burst (if it's an animal cell).

The forelimb structure seen in both bat wings and human arms is very similar to that of an extinct land animal called eusthenopt

Mumz [18]

The fact that both the humans and the bats have very similar forelimb structure, the humans in the arms, the bats in their wings, which in turn is very similar to those of an ancient sarcopterygian called eusthenopteron, suggest that both species probably share a common distant ancestor.

The eusthenopteron was an ancient species first thought to be living on land, though the latest research shows that it was only living in water, however, this animal is a distant ancestor of both species. This animal can be seen as ancestor to the humans and the bats because it is part of group that created the first animals on land, which in turn gave rise to the mammals later on, and both humans and bats are mammals, thus there's a connection and common ancestor of the both.

What is any characteristics that help an animal survive

Kitty [74]

A characteristic that helps an animal survive is called an adaptation.

Let's take a frog, for example.

It has strong leg muscles to be able to jump out of the water, snatch prey, and return quickly. It has cameoflague to hide itself from predators and sometimes even poison. It has a see-through eyelid of sorts that acts like goggles to let it see underwater and still keep debris out of its eye...et cetera.
