A plant is a living organism that uses chlorophyll in the chloroplasts to perform photosynthesis. The chemical equation of photosynthesis is
Sunlight(Photons)+ CO2+2H2O ----->C6H12O6+H2O+O2.(Not balanced) The reactants are carbon dioxide and water. The products are water and glucose with oxygen as a waste product.Photosynthesis can make a plant form a closed cycle as plants need to respire with oxygen which is a waste product of one of their reactions.

Answer:

Photosynthesis is coined from two words "photo" and "synthesis"

photo=light

synthesis=use something

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is coined from two words "photo" and "synthesis"

photo=light

synthesis=use something

photosynthesis is the process by which green plant manufacture their food(glucose) with the reaction between CO2 and Water in the presence of sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen. Photosynthesis takes place in the cell of green plant. specifically in the chloroplast

6CO2 + 6H2O ------> C6H12O6 + 6O2

                 Sunlight energy

Where: CO2 = carbon dioxide

H2O = water

Light energy is supplied  from the sun

C6H12O6 = glucose

O2 = oxygen

The oxygen exhaled by the plants is what humans breathe in during respiration and breathe out carbon dioxide

Re-order each list in the table below, if necessary, so that the atoms or ions in it are listed in order of decreasing size.
Serjik [45]

Answer: Na, S, Cl

Explanation:

Atomic size decreases as one moves from left to right on the periodic table with elements in the same period. This is as a result of the electrons increasing in the outer circle and thus being drawn to the protons in the nucleus which will lead to the outer shell area decreasing.

Sodium (Na) comes before Sulfur (S) which comes before Chlorine (S) so this is the decreasing order as they are all in the same period.

The radioisotope that has the longest half-life is the best to use in powering planet and space exploration vehicles because the
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

U-238

Explanation:

For a given radioisotope, half life can be defined as the time taken for the isotope to decay into one-half of its original amount. Mathematically, this is expressed as:

t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{k}

where k = rate constant for the radioactive decay process

Greater the t1/2 longer will be its stability.

Based on the given data, U-238 has the largest half life and therefore will be best suited for applications mentioned.

When standing in sunlight, what vitamin does your body synthesize ?
loris [4]

Answer:

There's good reason why vitamin D is called “the sunshine vitamin.” When your skin is exposed to sunlight, it makes vitamin D from cholesterol. The sun's ultraviolet B (UVB) rays hit cholesterol in the skin cells, providing the energy for vitamin D synthesis to occur.
