Answer:

Any preserved remains, trace, or impression of any once-thriving living thing from the past geological age is known as a fossil. This comprises exoskeletons, bones, stone imprints of animals or microbes, shells, hair, petrified wood, objects preserved in amber, DNA remnants, coal, and oil. The fossil record is the term used for the totality of fossils.  

The scientists use the prevailing fossils to show what the intermediary forms between the organisms may appear like. It is hard for the scientists to locate the fossils of the transitional forms as the formation of the fossils of the transitional forms may have never taken place because of the environmental conditions. In case if they did have formed, then the natural procedures like erosion may have demolished them.

Using a microscope, Quinlin notices a small green organelle inside a cell. Which of the following is most likely to occur first
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

D.The light-dependent reactions absorb sunlight and transfer the energy to electrons.

Explanation:

Firstly, the organelle that was described as small green organelle inside a cell as noticed by Quinlin is the CHLOROPLAST. Chloroplast is an organelle present in the cells of green plants, in fact, it makes plants green. Chloroplast is the organelle where the unique process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS occurs in plant cells.

However, the photosynthetic process is divided into stages namely: light-dependent and light-independent stages. The light dependent stage, which involves the production of ATP (energy carrier) and NADPH (electron carrier), must PRECEDE the light independent stage or Calvin cycle. Chloroplast contains a pigment called CHLOROPHYLL, which absorbs light energy from the SUN in order to power the light dependent stage of photosynthesis.

Hence, the light-dependent reactions, which absorb sunlight and transfer the energy to electrons must occur first in the organelle.

Bacteria reproduce through binary fission. Binary fission is a simpler process than mitosis in plants and animals because bacter
Lilit [14]
This is because bacteria are single-celled organisms.As opposed to animals and plants, which are multicellular organisms, bacteria are not - they consist of one cell only. This is what makes the entire process of binary fission much simpler than mitosis in plants and animals - because of the number of cells these organisms contain.
