What happens when chlorophyll and other pigments absorb light?

1 answer:

3 0

<span> In the process of photosynthesis, chlorophyll goes into a peculiar excited state which can survive for an unusually long time. Furthermore, the excitation energy can hope from chlorophyll molecule to chlorophyll molecule. In this way a large collection of chlorphyll molecules function as an "antenna" that collects many photons and funnels their energy down to a reaction center, where one particular chlorophyll will lose an electron.</span>

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Letter C

Explanation:

Salmon have a physiological adaptation that allows osmoregulation to occur in two different environments (seawater and freshwater). There are specific molecules in the salmon gills that "pump" and "remove" Na and Cl ions. When at sea these molecules pump the ions out of the salmon's body and into freshwater, the same molecules remove Na and Cl from the water bringing it into the animal's blood.
