Answer:
The part labelled Y is the chloroplast and its main function is to produce food for the plant in the reactions of photosynthesis.
Explanation:
Plants are autotrophic organisms in that they are able to manufacture their own food. Plants are able to manufacture their own food due to the presence of the cell organelle known as the chloroplast. The plant chloroplast has its own DNA and can reproduce independently, from the rest of the cell. They can as well produce amino acids and lipids required for the chloroplast membrane.
Chloroplasts are green-colored membrane-bound organelles found within the plant cell. Their green color is due to the presence of the pigment, chlorophyll. Chlorophyll in the chloroplasts are responsible for absorbing light energy from sunlight and using this absorbed energy to make simple sugars (carbohydrates) from carbon (iv) oxide and water. This is the main function of the chloroplasts in plant cells.
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts in two reaction steps:
1. The light reaction - involves the splitting of e=water molecules using the energy of sunlight
2. The dark reactions - carbon (iv) oxide from the air is used to produce sugars.
Do you have the picture of the data?
Explanation:
4. limestone heat lime + carbon dioxide
The reactants in this expression above is limestone
The products of the reaction is carbon dioxide and lime
Reactant is the species that gives the product and it is usually found on the left hand side of the expression.
The product is the substance on the right hand side of the expression that forms through the experiment.
Heat is used to facilitate the reaction.
5. An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is given off.
An endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is absorbed in the process.
An exothermic reaction is always warmer after the reaction whereas an endothermic reaction is colder at the end of the reaction.
