I think the answer is the first one, "conversion of radiant energy into chemical energy"

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Plants produce glucose by the help of carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere and water from soil that helps in the formation of a chemical compound known as glucose.

This is done by the conversion of radiant energy into chemical energy. This chemical energy is converted in the form of adenosine triphosphate and helps in carrying out various metabolic processes.

Answer:

diverse proteins embedded in a phospholipid bilayer

Explanation:

According to fluid mosaic model the cell membrane is made of bilayer of phospholipid. Many proteins are embedded in this bi layer. Carbohydrate and cholesterol are also found in different forms. Carbohydrate can either be attached to the embedded protein in which case it is called as glycoprotein or it can be connected to the lipid molecule in layer and called as glycolipid.

Proteins can be found in two forms too. They can either be embedded in the layer i.e. they can penetrate single or both layers. These proteins are called as integral proteins. They can also be present on one side of the membrane and not penetrate the lipid bilayer in which case they are called as peripheral proteins.

Can anybody say what phase each letter goes with? I am having a very hard time

ioda

Answer:

A is called Prophase

B is called Anaphase

C is called Metaphase

D is called Telophase

Explanation:

These can get confusing but I'll explain it for you.

The first stage of mitosis is Prophase.

In this stage the chromosomes become visible and the centrioles separate and move to opposite poles of the cell.

The second stage of mitosis is Metaphase.

In this stage the chromosomes line up across the center of the cell and become connected to the spindle fiber at their centromere.

The third stage of mitosis is Anaphase.

In this stage the sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes and are pulled apart.

The fourth and last stage of mitosis is Telophase.

During this stage the chromosomes gather at opposite ends of the cell and lose their distinct rod-like shapes. Two new nuclear membranes then form around each of the two regions of DNA and the spindle fibers disappear.

The process that follows the last stage of mitosis is called Cytokinesis.

With two complete copies of the DNA now in two different regions of one cell, the cell membrane will pinch and divide the cytoplasm in half. The result is two individual cells that are identical to the original cell. Each of the two new cells have a complete copy of the DNA and contain all of the organelles that the original cell had.

Hopefully, this eases the problem for you and you understand it better.

How does genetic variation affect the type of traits or the adaptations in the individuals of a species?

Gnesinka [82]

Genetic variation describes the genetic differences among individuals of the same species that are naturally occurring. Each genotype within a population usually has different degrees of fitness to an environment. Mating between same species with favored genes guarantees survival of the population in their chosen environment. As the environment changes, the mating behavior between species may again change resulting to a different gene pool to guarantee survival.
