Take this example. If a population is sole comprised of one species of one type, and a disease comes along that wipes out this population, then everyone dies. However, if there is some variation, or resistance to this disease, then the resistant population will survive. This means that the species lives on!

The chlorophyll's donated electrons need to be replaced, and these electrons come from the splitting of water. In a process called photolysis ('light' and 'split'), light energy and catalyst s interact to drive the splitting of water molecules into protons (H+), electrons, and oxygen gas.

Plants, algae, and certain microbes harness what kind of energy to produce their own nutrients using photosynthesis?

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Light energy from the sun.

Explanation:

Algae, plants and some bacteria such as cyanobacteria uses light energy from the sun, carbon dioxide and water to make organic molecules (sugars) to produce energy for growth. The by-product of this process in plants is oxygen and water vapour, released using the stomata (tiny openings in leaves).

You perform an experiment in which you take 16 pots of strawberry plants and give half of them 1 gm of ammonium nitrate per lite

svetlana [45]

Answer:

homeostasis.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the process whereby living systems maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in environmental conditions. Plants, like every other living organisms also perform this process to keep their internal environment in a stable state.

According to the question, some plants were exposed to ammonium nitrate, which serves as a nutrient, and 16 hours of sunlight needed for photosynthesis to take place. The plants exposed to ammonium nitrate and 16 hours sunlight grew taller because they had access to nutrients needed to bring about the process of photosynthesis, which provides the plant with energy source (Glucose).

The uptake of nutrients like ammonium nitrate by the plants is done in order to maintain a homeostatic internal environment. Without nutrients, which is the purpose of the ammonium nitrate, plants cannot grow. Hence, the plants exposed to ammonium nitrate, take it in to keep their internal environment functioning.
