Photophosphorylation is a process that occurs during photosynthesis in plants. It is the conversion of ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate) into ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) using light energy. ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the energy currency of life of all living organisms. Without ATP, cells will not be able to perform their proper functions.

Through the process of phosphorylation, light energy is used to create electron donors and electron acceptors that move spontaneously through the process of electron transport chains. </span>
Answer: All of the finches share common ancestors
Explanation:
The medulla oblongata is a primary respiratory control center. It’s main function is to send signals to the muscle that controls respiration to cause breathing to occur. There are two regions in the medulla that control respiration the ventral respiratory group stimulates expiratory movement.
Answer:
Polyphyletic relationships .
Explanation:
The primary goal of modern systematics is construct 'family trees' that exhibit polyphyletic relationships because systemics deals with grouping or organising living organisms into groups base on biological meanings of function and polyphyletic relationships which is organising or grouping of organisms that don't have common ancestors Into different groups or unrelated organisms.
<h3><u>Comparison between Galapagos penguin and cold adapted Emperor penguin of Antarctica:</u></h3>
<u>Galapagos penguin:</u>
- Galapagos penguins are the only species of penguins that live north of the Equator.
- The Galapagos penguins breed all-round the year.
- The Galapagos penguins are smaller compared to the cold-adapted emperor penguins of Antarctica.
- The breeding and nesting place of the Galapagos penguins lie on the shoreline.
<u>Emperor penguin:</u>
- The emperor penguins live and adapt to the cold Antarctic environment.
- The Emperor penguins breed only during the Antarctic winters.
- The nesting of emperor penguins is on ice cliffs and icebergs where the eggs are protected from the strong and cold Antarctic winds.
- However, both of these species of penguins are at risk of extinction due to the rise in temperature and shortage of foods.
