Answer:

Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. They are only found in plant cells and some protists. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Every green plant you see is working to convert the energy of the sun into sugars. Plants are the basis of all life on Earth. They create sugars, and the byproduct of that process is the oxygen that we breathe. That process happens in the chloroplast. Mitochondria work in the opposite direction and break down the sugars and nutrients that the cell receives.

Answer:

Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells. The entire process is called photosynthesis and it all depends on the little green chlorophyll molecules in each chloroplast. Plants are the basis of all life on Earth. They are classified as the producers of the world.

Many species of gulls feed their chicks by regurgitating food. When parents return from foraging, the gull chicks peck at a red

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

fixed action pattern, key stimulus; key stimulus, fixed action pattern

Explanation:

An innate behavior which specific to a species and is highly stereotyped is termed as a fixed action pattern.
This behavior occurs due to a neuronal network that is hard-wired in the species and the response is said to be generated following a key stimulus.
A key stimulus is the one that generates a fixed action pattern and this is also called a releaser.
A key stimulus can be in the form of shape, sound, color, or a combination of these.
In this case, the red spot is a stimulus for the chicks which causes them to peck at their parent's bill, and hence, the red spot is a key stimulus, and pecking of the chicks is a fixed action pattern.
The parents regurgitate the food only when the chicks peck at their bills, so pecking is a key stimulus for the parents which causes them to regurgitate the food which is a fixed action pattern.

Julie wrote down the list below of the reasons why she thinks that humans should stop relying on fossil fuels.

forsale [732]

Julie listed out fossil fuels are a non-renewable source of energy and Fossil fuels are becoming more expensive.

Option C

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Fossil fuels are defined as the type of non renewable energy which is formed as a result of dead and decaying organic matter over thousands of years under pressure and temperature of Earth’s core.

This type of fuels are formed due to the dumping of dead prehistoric organisms like dinosaur and others under the soil under a tremendous pressure and very high temperature, where they are acted upon by bacteria and other chemicals to reduce them into petroleum and coal. These are totally non renewable and they are getting expensive over days due to shortage of availability.
