Hello,
<span>Winds are caused by air moving around in the atmosphere. Wind turbines harness the mechanical energy in wind and convert it into electricity. Solar energy is the source of the mechanical energy in wind.

Answer: The sequence of events of avocado seed germination includes:
Water absorption --> enzyme activation --> radicle emerges --> lengthening of the hypocotyl --> growth of epicotyl and plumule development --> shrinking of the cotyledons.
Explanation:
Germination is defined as all the changes that occurs when a seed embryo resumes it's growth and development to become an independent seedling. Seeds usually germinate in two ways:
--> EPIGEAL germination: in this type of germination, the hypocotyl grows rapidly and elongates, carrying the cotyledon above the soil.The AVOCADO seed is a typical example of a dicotyledonous plant.
The sequence of events of avocado seed germination starts by imbibition which is the rapid in take or absorption of water by the seed through osmosis. Hydration of the embryo activates the enzymes in it which converts insoluble stored food materials into soluble forms. The testa splits and the radicle emerges first. It grows downwards as the primary root from which root hairs and branch roots arise( to form a tap root system). Next, the hypocotyl lengthens, pushes its way up through the soil carrying with it the cotyledons and the plumule. The cotyledons turn green on exposure to sunlight and start to photosynthesize. The epicotyl then grows and the plumule develops into a green shoot. By the time the first foliage leaves grow and begin to photosynthesize, the cotyledons shrink and drop off.
Answer: The correct answer is-
C) Genes.
Traits are the particular characteristics of an individual ( such as eye color, skin color, hair color) that are depicted by genes ( segment of DNA that corresponds to particular protein, which determines specific trait of an individual).
Genes carry genetic information ( in the form of DNA sequence) that is passed from one generation to the next.
Gregor Mendel studied different genes ( corresponding to traits of pea plant) and their pattern of inheritance.
Thus, scientist used his data to conclude that traits are passed from parents to offspring through genes.
Large mammals only have one offspring at a time.
