Answer:

Photosynthesis is the synthesis of glucose from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll with oxygen as a by-product it occurs in green plants,photosynthetic bacteria and some algae it is an anabolic(building) process and nearly all life depends on it it comprises many coordinated biochemical reactions that are necessary for the survival of the species it is divided into two phases 1 light reaction(Z-scheme) 2 dark reactions(Calvin cycle)

Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process through which autotrophs are bale to produce their own food. The Process is named so because photo means sun's light and synthesis means creating. It involves the Plants or other autotrophs absorbing the sun's light and also carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere by respiration. As a result of Photosynthesis, we obtain what is known as oxygen. This is, in fact, the biproduct of the process. Mainly, Photosynthesis occurs due to the presence of Chlorophyll which give leaves their green colour.

Key:

Autotrophs: Those who have the ability to produce their own food.

Biproduct: The extra result of a scientific equation.

Chlorophyll: a green pigment, present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, etc.

Hope this helps

All of these species are herbivores and share the same habitat. Coexistence, however, can occur when animals partition their nic

Alona [7]

Answer:

Eating different vegetables.
Eating at different times.
Eating in different places in the same region.

Explanation:

It is common for herbivorous animals of different species to share the ecological niche and the same habitat without establishing competition for resources. In this case, these animals manage to maintain a balance between their populations and the resources available for both species to survive. Three ways of doing this are:

Feeding on different vegetables: Even though they are herbivores, some animals prefer a specific type of vegetable, or just feed on these vegetables. We can use as an example animals that eat only fruits and animals that eat only herbs.
Eating at different times: Some animals have nocturnal habits, while others have diurnal habits. This is very efficient so that these animals are not competitors and are able to feed at different times
Eating in different places in the same region: We can use as an example two species of turtles, where one lives on the south side of the region and feeds on the vegetables found there, while the other species lives on the north side of the region and feeds on vegetables found there.

We live in the Cenozoic era, and scientists know more about this era and the epochs it's divided into than any other time period

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

D. We know more about the Cenozoic era because this the most recent time period in the history of the Earth, and we have more information available to study.

Explanation:

The Cenozoic era is the era that is by far the best studied and known by the scientists. The main reason for this is that this era is the most recent one, and it is actually the era we live in. Because it is the most recent era, the Cenozoic is abundant with lot of evidence of what has happened in it. The fossil records are very rich as the fossils didn't had that much time to totally decompose. The rock layers are much younger, so they contain much more detailed evidence of the plant life, climate, changes in the environment. The oceanic crust is also in abundance, which is not the case with the other eras as the oceanic crust is constantly suducted.
