Photosynthesis is the chemical process used in plants to convert energy in the form of sunlight into chemical energy in the form of sugar or other carbohydrates.

<span><span>General equation:<span><span>carbon dioxide + electron donor + light energy ==> carbohydrate + oxidized electron donor + water</span><span>CO2 + 2H2A + photons ==> [CH2O] + 2A + H2O

</span></span></span><span>Net equation: Because glucose, a six carbon sugar, is often an intermediate product of photosynthesis, the net equation is frequently written as:</span></span>carbon dioxide + water + light energy ==> glucose + oxygen + water<span>6CO2 + 12H2O + Light Energy ==> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O</span><span>Balanced equation: The net equation above can be simplified as:<span><span>6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy </span>==><span> C6H12O6 + 6O<span>2</span></span></span></span>

The key to the evolution of altruism is that a. recipients have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than nonrecipie
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. actors have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than non actors.

Explanation:

Altruism is the behavior by an organism that benefits other organisms by costing its own fitness. The actor is the individual who is doing altruism and the recipient is the individual who is getting benefited by the actor's altruism.

An example of altruistic behavior can be seen in animal kingdom easily. Vampire bats give blood to those members of the community who were not able to go for search for blood show altruistic behavior.

Actors have altruistic genes that suggest them to behave altruistically. Non-actors may not contain alleles of altruism but the recipient might have altruistic alleles.

Hamilton's rule says that natural selection will favor the altruistic allele when rb > c.

where r = coefficient of relatedness between donor and recipient

          b = benefit received by recipient and

          c = cost paid by altruist.

Therefore, the correct answer is b.

Plants, such as sunflowers, contain specialized receptor cells that respond to light and grow in the direction of a light source
loris [4]
Photoreceptor proteins are light-sensitive proteins involved in the sensing and response to light in a variety of organisms. Some examples are rhodopsin in the photoreceptor cells of the vertebrate retina,phytochrome in plants, and bacteriorhodopsin<span> and bacteriophytochromes in some bacteria.
