The correct  matching are as follows:
1. AUTOTROPH: An organism that can make its own food.
There are different mode of feeding for living organisms, these include autotrophic, heterotrophic, saprophytic, filter feeding, etc. Of all living organisms, it is only green plants that can produce their own food and all other living organisms depend on plants for food. 
2. CALVING CYCLE: is the dark reaction process which carbon dioxide for the synthesis of carbohydrate.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their food using energy from the sun. The photosynthetic process is divided into light and dark reaction, the dark reaction is also called calving cycle. The light reaction of photosynthesis occur during the day when there is light while the dark reaction occurs in the night.
3. CAROTENOID PIGMENT: A pigment ranging in colour from yellow to red, helpful in capturing sun's light energy for use in photosynthesis.
Carotenoids are organic pigments which are produced by plants, they can also be produced by other forms of living organisms such as bacteria. Carotenoids are responsible for the different colours that are found in plants, they also perform important functions during photosynthesis.
4. CHLOROPHYLL: A green pigment in plants that serves to trap the sun's energy for photosynthesis.
Green plants are able to produce their own food using the energy from the sun majorly because they possess a chemical compound known as chlorophyll which is capable of trapping energy from the sun. Without chlorophyll, a plant can not manufacture its own food.
5. CHLOROPLAST: The tiny body that contains chlorophyll, part of the cell in which photosynthesis takes place.
Chloroplast refers to the plastid which is found in green plants' cells and in which the chlorophyll is enclosed. Photosynthesis usually takes place inside this structure, it is refers to as the site of photosynthesis.
6. PHOTOSYNTHESIS: A process that involves the use of carbon dioxide and water in the production of glucose and oxygen using the sun's energy.
Photosynthesis is the process by which glucose is produced in plants by as a result of chemical reaction which occur between carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sun's energy. This is the major process by which food is produced for all living organisms on earth.
7. RADIATION: Transfer of heat or energy through rays of various wavelengths.
There are three major ways by which heat can be transferred from one substance to another, these are conduction, convection and radiation. Radiation is the process by which heat is transferred through space by means of rays of various wavelengths.

<span>AUTOTROPH 1. an organism that can make its own food

Plants like algae are autotrophs. They produce their own food with the use of light, carbon dioxide, water, and other chemicals that are vital in their food producing activity. Aside from plants, there are autotroph organisms. An example of this is phytoplanktons. 

CALVIN CYCLE 2. the dark reaction process of photosynthesis that uses carbon dioxide for the synthesis of carbohydrates

The Calvin Cycle has three phases. These are 1) carbon fixation, 2) reduction reactions, and 3) RuBP regeneration. 
This cycle occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast and it converts carbon dioxide and other chemical compounds into glucose.

CAROTENOID PIGMENT 3. a pigment ranging in color from yellow to red; helpful in capturing the Sun's light energy for use in photosynthesis

Carotenoid is a plant pigment. It produces yellow, orange, and red colors of many fruits and vegetables. Carotenoid pigment is identified as a class of phytonutrients that benefits human health. People who consumes carotenoid rich fruits and vegetables enjoys the antioxidant property of the food as well as the Vitamin A that some carotenoid convert into. 

CHLOROPHYLL 4. a green pigment in plants that serves to trap the Sun's energy for photosynthesis

Chlorophyll is the combination of two Greek words "chloros" and "phyllon" which means green and leaf respectively. This pigment also contributes to human wellness as consumption of plants rich in chlorophyll are proven to be very healthy. These health benefits are 1) helps fight cancer, 2) improves liver detoxification, 3) speeds up the healing of wounds, 4) improves digestion and helps control weight, and 5) protects skin from skin virus like cold sores.

CHLOROPLAST 5. the tiny body that contains chlorophyll; part of the cell in which photosynthesis takes place

Chloroplast is a type of plastid that can be distinguished from other plastids due to its green color. Chloroplast is the only plastid that contains chlorophylls a and b, thus its green color. 

PHOTOSYNTHESIS 6. a process that involves the use of carbon dioxide and water in the production of glucose and oxygen using the Sun's energy

RADIATION 7. transfer of heat or energy through rays of various wavelengths

</span><span>Radiation is defined as energy travelling through space. Sunshine or sunlight is an example of radiation. Its ultra violet rays radiates heat on the earths' surface which in turn helps our autotrophs undergo photosynthesis.

lys-0071 [83]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

  • going to a tailor and having a suit made to fit you
  • selecting a lottery prize-winner by means of a random drawing
  • going to a shoe store and trying on shoes until you find a pair that fits
  • ordering the lunch special at a restaurant without looking at the menu
  • picking out a video that you haven't seen yet

Answer:

Going to a shoe store and trying on shoes until you find a pair that fits

Explanation:

Antibodies are the immunoglobulin molecules secreted by the B cells which help the body providing the immunity as they interact with the antigen and help immune system to produce a response.

The variety of the B cells are produced by the body in response to different antigens which produce different type of antibodies. This interaction of antigen and antibodies is known as the complementation and just appear like if you are going to a shop to buys a pair of shoes and tries different shoes  to find the best shoe of best size.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

zhannawk [14.2K]
After hundreds or even thousands of generations both alleles for sickle cell anemia are still common in those of African ancestry. This is supported by two mechanisms: heterozygote advantage and gene flow.

Heterozygote advantage
When an allele is said to be heterozygous, it is carrying one copy of a gene. For example if one carries a copy of sickle cell allele, it will stay in the population even after many generations — natural selection will not be able to remove it and it will be passed on through generations. So, having one copy of that allele is advantageous but not deleterious.

Gene flow
With humans migrating throughout the different parts of the world, sickle cell allele is passed from one person to another or in different populations. It is actually advantageous to have one copy of this allele especially if there’s malaria in the area, which the allele is resistant.
