Photosynthesis is a process in which green plants and few organisms use sunlight to synthesize their food from carbon di- oxide and water. In plants, during photosynthesis, green pigment known as chlorophyll is involved and oxygen is generated at a by product.

All the sunlight falling on plant is not absorbed. Only half of the falling light which lies in the right frequency to power photosynthesis is absorbed. Out of this falling light, only 8 % to 11% is absorbed by the plant and only 3 % to 6 % is actually used to form chemical energy.

Hey there! I was wondering if someone could explain what the integumentary muscles do in the body!
Crazy boy [7]
It consists of skin, hair, nails, and glands. The skin protects the body from the environment on the outside. It also functions to retain body fluids, protect against disease, eliminate waste products, and regulate body temperature. It also helps store fat and water.

an organism had 8 chromosomes in its body cells. how many chromosomes will be in the body cells of the offspring?
larisa [96]

Answer:

8

Explanation:

I am assuming that this organism reproduces sexually. The body cell of the offspring will be the same as the parent. The reproductive cell of the organism will have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cell.

So if the parent has 8 chromosomes in its body cells then the offspring will have 8 chromosomes in its body cells.
