Biology
1 answer:
faltersainse [42]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

  • Responds to stimuli
  • Movement
  • Ability to grow and change
  • Maintains homeostasis
  • Obtain and use energy

Explanation:

All the characteristics of life are often remembered using the acronym MRS C GREN, which stands for:

M - Movement (They move)

R - Respiration (They respire - energy)

S - Sense (They respond to the world round them)

C - Made of cells

G - Growth (They grow)

R - Reproduction (They can make more of themselves)

E - Excretion (They excrete waste)

N - Nutrition (E.g. they require 'food' from some source)

So according to the characteristics of life, the ones that apply are:

  • Responds to stimuli (Sense)
  • Movement (M)
  • Ability to grow and change (Growth)
  • Maintains homeostasis (Comes under Sense)
  • Obtain and use energy (Nutrition)

Breathing is not a characteristic of life as there are other ways living organisms can respire and not all respiration requires breathing.

Breathing is the physical movement of pulling in and pushing out air.

Respiration refers to the energy-making process that takes place in a cell.

Hope this helped!

Which of the following factors is needed during light-dependent reactions to create ATP and NADPH energy molecules?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: The correct answer is- Solar energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Light dependent reactions comprise the first phase of photosynthesis (formation of food by green plants and algae in presence of sunlight) process.

This phase occurs in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplast.

During this phase, a green pigment chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight (in the presence of carbon dioxide and water) and convert it into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.

This energy is further utilized in the formation of food (glucose) in the next phase, which is a light independent phase of photosynthesis.

In photosynthesis, oxygen is produced by splitting of water molecule and it is released in the atmosphere.

Thus, solar energy, carbon dioxide, and water is the right answer.
