<span><span>There are choices for this question namely:

A. Its photons have the shortest wavelength in the visual spectrum
B. Its photons have the highest energy in the visual spectrum
C. Its photons have the longest wavelength in the visual spectrum
D. It is not considered a part of the visual spectrum

The correct answer is that </span>its photons have the longest wavelength in the visual spectrum<span>. Chlorophyll, being green in color (around 495 to 590 nm wavelength), reflects this wavelength; not absorbed. Mostly, the chlorophyll absorbs longer wavelengths of light such as red (around 680 nm wavelength) and blue to violet (around 400 to 480 nm wavelnegth). </span></span>

Answer:

Explanation:

The characteristics of red light suitable for photosynthesis are as follows :

a) It has the longest wavelength

b) It has the least energy  but sufficient enough to excite the photons.  Energy levels other than red light do not raise an orbital electron to an excited, or quantum, state

c) The adsorption rate by the chlorophyll is high  

d) It has high electrical efficiency which allows the excitation of photons and release of electrons.

bezimeni [28]

If p = frequency of A and q = frequency of a, then assuming H-W equilibrium we have

p + q = 1   ⇒   q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.55 = 0.45

Then the expected frequency of the heterozygous genotype Aa is 2pq = 2 • 0.55 • 0.45 = 0.495.

Answer:

Explanation:

Vertebrates are members of the kingdom Animalia and the phylum Chordata ((Figure)). Recall that animals that possess bilateral symmetry can be divided into two groups—protostomes and deuterostomes—based on their patterns of embryonic development. The deuterostomes, whose name translates as “second mouth,” consist of two major phyla: Echinodermata and Chordata. Echinoderms are invertebrate marine animals that have pentaradial symmetry and a spiny body covering, a group that includes sea stars, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers. The most conspicuous and familiar members of Chordata are vertebrates, but this phylum also includes two groups of invertebrate chordates.

Deuterostome phylogeny. All chordates are deuterostomes possessing a notochord at some stage of their life

Goryan [66]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The stinger should be scrapped away from the skin. The stinger of honey which is located in the abdomen of the bee produces venom via the venom sac. A sting from a bee introduces this stinger and the whole abdomen into the skin. This causes allergy and must be removed
