<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.

Answer: (D) Only cell B forms a cell plate during cytokinesis.

Explanation: The “cell cycle” describes the process that cells go through, from their “birth” as new daughter cells, until they themselves are ready to split and become “parent cells” to two new daughter cells. The formation of the cell plate takes place during the mitotic phase.

What causes hotspot volcanism?
Andreas93 [3]
A hot spot is an area in the mantle of the earth where heat increases during the convection phase. This heat makes it easier for rock to melt. The melted lava, known as magma, drives volcanoes into cracks in the crust. There was a mistake. It does happen instead in abnormally hot centers called mantle feathers.

Answer:

The population of predators will decrease as well because without their prey they won't have anything to feast on for nutrition. So they will decrease without prey.

What is the difference between a species and a population?What is the difference between a species and a population?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

A population is a group of organisms of the same species, in the same place

A species is a group of organisms that are genetically similar

Explanation:

I like to remember it with humans.

Humans (homo sapiens) are a species. We are all genetically similar and can share genetic material by reproduction.

In a city, a lot of humans are together and that is a population of humans

As a species however, we are all over the place
