Answer:
The size of the crystals in granite will be different from the size of the crystals in basalt depending on how they are formed and how they are cooled which determines the nature of the crystals they produce. Granite takes a much longer time to form than basalt because granite takes a very long time to cool down since it is intrusive giving minerals to be well-formed and producing a bigger size of crystals with individual mineral grains that are can be seen without the need for bigger magnification. While basalt crystals are much smaller as the crystals form very quickly because the magma comes out of the earth and cools quickly giving rise to fine-grained minerals.
Explanation:
Granite and basalt are both igneous rocks.
Granite takes a longer time to cool as it hardens under the earth's surface causing the delay in cooling while basalt takes a shorter time to cool as it hardens above the earth's surface.
Answer:
A-Band
Explanation:
Sarcomere is the basic unit of skeletal muscle and shows various striations under the microscope.
Anisotropic band or A-Band is the portion of sarcomere that contains both the thick and thin filaments . A-Band appaers dark under the microscope. Thick filaments are consist of actin and thin filaments consists of myosin.
I-Band contains only thin filaments of myosin. H- zone contains only thick filaments and no thin filament. Sarcomere is the unit of a skeletal muscle. Synapse is the junction between two neurons.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
Answer:
Asexual reproduction does not involve the fusion of gametes or change in the number of chromosomes. Sexual reproduction involves combining genetic information from two individuals of different sexes. Asexual reproduction results in offspring that are genetically identical or mostly identical.

1. Energy from the Sun ejects electrons from chlorophyll and splits water molecules to yield hydrogen ions.
Pigments inside the photosystems absorb light energy. Energy is transferred to reaction center, where electron is boosted at higher level. Electron is then passed to an acceptor molecule, replaced with an electron from H2O. and O2 is released.
2. Electrons move down the electron transport chain, releasing energy that pumps hydrogen ions into the thylakoid space
Electron releases energy because it goes from a higher to a lower energy level.
3. The concentration of hydrogen ions in the thylakoid space increase
Released energy of electrons drives pumping of hydrogen ions from the stroma into the thylakoid interior, building a proton gradient.
4. Hydrogen ions diffuse across the thylakoid membrane into the stroma through ATP synthase.
The only way for hydrogen ions to move down the gradient is through ATP synthase.
5. ATP synthase uses the energy released as hydrogen ions move from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration to make ATP.
ATP synthase is an enzyme that use proton gradient to make ATP from ADP and Pi.
