The right answer is D. none of above.

Light can be defined as a wave and also as packets of energy: particles called photons. The energy increases when the frequency increases that is to say that one goes towards the ultraviolet (UV).

The sun emits its maximum wavelengths between 0.3μm and 25μm.

The atmosphere, the oceans and the surface of the continents absorb solar radiation (short wavelengths: 0.2 to 4 micrometers). This has the effect of increasing their temperature. But any body brought to a certain temperature emits radiations in turn. The wavelength of these radiations depends on the temperature of the emitting surface. Thus, the Earth emits infrared radiation to space; it represents a loss of energy for the Earth.

On earth 70-85% of the radiation is absorbed, 15-30% is reflected. and the energy that has been absorbed is emitted as infrared rays.

Dandelions can produce seeds by both asexual and sexual
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

only appear in veg plants

Explanation:

Unlike other forms of asexual reproduction in plants such as vegetative plant propagation via cuttings, apomixis is asexual reproduction via seeds. In the case of most dandelions (i.e., Taraxacum officinale), the embryo in the seed forms without meiosis, thus the offsping are genetically identical to the parent.

What is osmosis? Please help me
KIM [24]
First off, we need to understand that osmosis is typically used with the example of water---
To understand that, osmosis is taking water from a high concentration to a low concentration to make the membrane equal to one another .
Imagine you have a pea, and the pea is about to explode of water. And you have another pea that's shriveled up. You would take some of the exploding water's pea into the shriveled one, therefore making it equal. (Thats my example I like to use!)
I hope this helped!

If you could repeat the lab and make it better, what would you do differently and why?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The advise I will offer the next scientist about how the laboratorycan beimproved include the following 

Calibration of instruments: Instruments which are used in the laboratory should be calibrated so as to reduce errors and inaccuracy during experiments.

Proper labeling of Samples : This helps to give the scientists an idea of where to find samples and to prevent making mistakes in picking the wrong one. This helps to save time and resources in the lab.

Adequate cleaning and waste disposal: Cleaning of the lab and disposal of the wastes helps to eliminate contamination of samples.
