Well, since I am in 8th grade I can help, try gthis...

<span>The process by which a plant absorbs energy from the sun is, as you know, photosynthesis.

Remember the Law of Conservation of Energy - when energy is transferred, it is neither created nor destroyed but rather takes a new form.

In this case, the plant takes energy in from the sun (through sunlight, which transfers through radiation) and "leaves" the plant after the process has occurred in a form of potential energy - the oxygen produced in this process has potential energy.</span>

Answer:

Some of the energy is stored in the plant's tissues and the rest is released as heat energy.

Explanation:

Plants absorb the energy of Sun and store it in the form of chemical energy of organic compounds such as glucose. The part of glucose is stored in tissues of plants in the form of starch. Rest of the energy is used by plants to perform vital functions such as respiration. Once used, the energy is converted into unusable form and is lost in the form of heat to the surroundings.  

When consumers feed on plants, the energy stored in chemical bonds of starch serves as an energy source for them.

nlexa [21]
The correct answer is "wildlife sanctuary"

These sanctuaries are places that emulate conditions met in natural habitats that are long gone and thus the animals that live in them have a place to live freely and survive.

Which of the following statements about carotenoids is NOT true? Carotenoids include red, orange, and yellow pigments. Carotenoi
kvv77 [185]

       The right answer to this question is option D. Carotenoids are categorized into two major divisions: carotenes and beta carotenes

       First, let's check option A, it says that the carotenoids include red, orange and yellow pigments, that's true, we can check that on lab for example, a vegetable that can be mentioned here are carrots, it has lots of this and it's very healthy too, and remember, there isn't a single animal that can produce carotenoids, so they need to grab it from nature.

       The second option, B. says that sometimes carotenoids are sometimes called as acessory pigments, that's true too, some studies consider them acessory pigments, so, they're not alone there, there are different kinds of pigments that can be on that plant, and they're also very important for the animals. Option C refers to beta carotene as the most abundant carotene in plants, that's true too, we can also find other kinds of carotenoids on plants, but this one as it's seen in lab, is the most common one. The last one, D, isn't true, the two major divisions are: Xanthophylls and Carotenoids, beta carotenoids are a type of carotenoids, not a different group.

1. Define fitness as it used to describe adaptation
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

In terms of adaptation, fitness refers to the ability of an organism to survive and reproduce in a constantly changing environment.

Adaptive traits are very much important in a constantly changing environment as they increase the chances of survival of a population in the environment.

For example, Darwin's finches adapted to develop different types of beaks in order to get nutrition in different environments. Long necks of giraffes are also considered as a result of adaptation which helps them get the food located high on trees.
