Answer:
compound
Explanation:
Sheets can be grouped into two basic groups: single sheets and composite sheets. The simple leaves are those in which the limb is not divided. The composite leaves, in turn, have the limbus divided into small portions called leaflets. Each leaflet may also have a small petiole, which in this case is called a petiole.
Composite leaves can be further classified into two types: pinnacles and spankings. Pinnacles are those in which leaflets start from the rake (petiole extension) as a feather. The spanking, in turn, has its leaflets starting at the very end of the petiole.
Answer:
Option A, accumulate sulfur as intracellular granules.
Explanation:
Purple sulfur bacteria belong to the group of Proteobacteria. These probacterias are anaerobic in nature and yet are able to photosynthesise. They are usually found in water environments such as hot springs, stagnant water etc. They use sulphur (either in the form of sulfide, or thiosulfate) as an electron donor in their photosynthetic activity to oxidise sulfur thereby producing granules of elemental sulfur.
while filamentous sulfur oxidizers use nitrate instead of oxygen to oxidize sulfide thereby producing granules.
Hence, option A is correct.
Answer: Sunlight
Explanation: Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.

Answer:
Regulatory gene
Explanation:
Transcription is one of the major processes that occurs during gene expression. It is the transfer of the genetic instructions in DNA to mRNA. A strand of mRNA is made using complementary base pairs.
However, there is need for gene expression to be regulated.
Gene regulation refers to the mechanism that acts to induce or repress the expression of a gene. These include structural & chemical changes to the genetic material, binding of proteins to specific DNA elements to regulate transcription. These proteins that influences transcription by binding to specific nucleotide sequences (DNA segments/gene) are referred to as REGULATORY PROTEINS and those involved in regulating transcription of genes are called TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS.
Regulatory proteins controls the rate and manner of gene expression by binding to specific genes, thus, making it easy or hard for RNA polymerase (enzyme that attaches to DNA to synthesize mRNA molecule) to bind to the promoter of that gene.
Transcription factors (regulatory proteins) that promote gene transcription are called ACTIVATORS while those that decrease are called REPRESSORS.
