Answer:

Photosynthesis-The Sun is the ultimate source of all energy in the universe. Plants being the main primary producers or autotrophs, use solar energy to make their own food through photosynthesis, thus converting energy into organic matter that can be consumed by all organisms. They form the basis of almost all food chains from where consumers derive their food.

Photosynthesis is the process by which the plants make their food with the help of sunlight. This food helps the plant to live and grow. The by-products created by photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen. The glucose is used by the plants for growth and oxygen is released in the air.

The one component in photosynthesis that can't be recycled but must be constantly available is energy.

Light energy, mostly from sunlight, is the main requirement for photosynthesis to occur. 

Photosynthesis is a process wherein light energy is converted into chemical energy.

Would strontium-90 be useful for determining the age of fossils

netineya [11]

False. Strontium 90 has a half life of only 30 years, and as millions of years pass, about the time fossils have been around, most if not all of any strontium would have decayed.

When roots take up mineral ions, they are built up against their concentration gradient. both anion and cation transport utilize

attashe74 [19]

I believe the answer is B, primary active transport. Root hair cells in plant use active transport to absorb mineral ions such as nitrates from the soil. The concentrations of minerals in the soil are lower in the soil than in within the root hair cell, therefore the transport will be against the concentration gradient which does not favor diffusion, therefore the pant has to use active transport.

How would you identify a floodplain that has not been immersed for a long time?

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Floodplains are identified as zones on FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs). Flood zones are defined by type, depth, and frequency of flooding. But the shape and nature of a floodplain may also change over time as the main channel of a river naturally migrates through erosion and accretion, impacting how and where excess water may first over top the banks of the river during a flood event. Geologically ancient floodplains are often represented in the landscape by fluvial terraces. These are old floodplains that remain relatively high above the present floodplain and indicate former courses of a stream. I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU :)

ASAP IMAGE IS ATTACHED THIS IS NOT DIFFICULT

True [87]

Answer:

The mRNA code for each type of amino acid is a sequence of three nucleotides, called a codon.
mRNA codon that codes for the amino acid Phe es UUU.

Explanation:

The messenger RNA (mRNA) has in its structure sequences of 4 nucleotides adenine, uracil, guanine and cytosine. The possible combinations of these nucleotides to group into triplets is 64 codons to form 20 amino acids, from which it can be concluded:

An amino acid can be encoded by more than one codon.
From these combinations the three STOP codons are obtained.

A mRNA codon is a sequence of three nucleotides that serves to encode an amino acid.

Phenylalanine (Phe), according to the image, is formed with the UUU codon.
