Answer:
B- Photosynthesis
Explanation:
Chloroplasts are <em>chlorophyll-containing, eukaryotic cell structures</em> that function in photosynthesis by absorbing energy from sunlight, combining this energy with water and CO2 to convert them to sugars . This cell structure is known as a plastid. The sugars produced, are important for the survival of the plant.
Chloroplasts reproduce on their own, independent of the whole cell because they contain their own DNA. Plant chloroplasts are located in guard cells in plant leaves. Closely linked to these guard cells are tiny pores called stomata, which allow gas exchange required for photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis occurs in two stages:
- The light reaction stage
- The dark reaction stage
The Light reaction stage takes place in the presence of light. Clorophyll converts light into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. Both molecules produced, are used in the dark stage to produce sugar.
In the dark reaction stage, the stroma, containing enzymes, facilitates reactions leading to the production of sugars from ATP and NADPH. This process is also called the carbon fixation stage. The sugar produced can be stored in the form of starch for other processes such as respiration.
Answer:
Option D, Gastric Juices
Explanation:
The second line of defense is a non specific defense mechanism in which no specific individual is targeted but all invaders are killed in general way. Some common mode of second line of defense are - Phagocytic cells (white blood cells), inflammatory responses, macrophage system etc. The second line of defense comes into action when the invader has surpassed the first line of defense which include either physical barrier like skin, mucous membrane, hair, cilia etc. or chemical barriers like gastric juices, saliva, Hyaluronic acid etc.
Hence, gastric juice does not belong to second line of defense.
Thus, option D is correct.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Animals can be categorized into 3 based on body symmetry
- <em>Those without any body symmetry (asymmetrical)</em>
- <em>Those with bilateral body symmetry (bilateria)</em>
- <em>Those with radial body symmetry (Radiata)</em>
Animals can be categorized into 2 based on number of embryonic germ layer;
- <em>Those with two layers - endoderm and ectoderm (diplobastic)</em>
- <em>Those with three layers - mesoderm in addition to ectoderm and endoderm (triploblastic)</em>
Animals can be categorized based on presence/absence of body cavity or coelom;
- <em>No body cavity - acoelomates</em>
- <em>False body cavity - pseudocoelomates</em>
- <em>True body cavity - coelomates</em>
Animals can be categorized into 2 based on characteristics of embryonic development;
- <em>Deuterostomes</em>
- <em>Protosomes</em>
Answer:
Earth is fairly quicker than all the others, as they are so much larger.
Explanation:
Earth, our home planet of Earth speeds around the sun at a rate of 29.78 km/s. This means that we are traveling at 66,615 miles per hour. Mars, with an orbital speed of 24.077 km/s, or 53,858 miles per hour, travels considerably faster than the prior planets.
