Photosynthesis starts when a photon- a tiny packet of light is absorbing a molecule of chlorophyll.
<span>Anton van Leeuwenhoek learned to grind lenses ( 1668) and develop simple microscopes.

Leeuwenhoek heated the middle of a small soda glass rod , over a flame. On pulling apart the two ends, the glass rod elongated into thin whiskers .
Heating the end of this whisker resulted in a tiny high quality glass sphere. These glass spheres then became the lens of his microscope, with the smallest sphere providing the greatest magnification.
Leeuwenhoek's designs were very basic. The body of the microscope was a single lens mounted in a tiny hole on a brass plate. The specimen was then mounted on a sharp point that sticks up in front of the lens. It's position and focus could be adjusted by turning the two screws.
The entire instrument was about 3 to 4 inches long and had to be held up close to the eye, requiring good lighting and great patience to use.
Option D – amphibians may use their skin for gas exchange is the characteristic feature of amphibians that differs from reptiles.
Explanation:
The amphibian skin is moist, thin and marbled and supplied by blood vessels running on its surface. The moisture present in the skin dissolves the oxygen present in its surrounding which is absorbed by the blood vessels. Special glands help the amphibians to keep the skin moist.
The very thick and tough scales present on the reptiles prevent them to absorb oxygen through their skin. Hence, they breathe and respire through their lungs.
Amphibians have three-chambered heart. They do not develop amniotic eggs. Adult amphibians although spend much time on land, they breed only in water due to the absence of amniotic sac
.
Well it helped the animals and humans grow the population.
A hammer is a lever, one of the six types of simple machines.
