<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

Psychology is a discipline that studies the mental processes and states. It studies what affects the mind in different situations and problems.

<h3><u>Sub-fields of psychology:</u></h3>

There are many sub-fields of psychology.

Some of these include social psychology, cultural psychology, educational psychology, health psychology, environmental psychology, forensic psychology, developmental psychology and cognitive psychology etc.

<h3><u>The impact of culture on psychology:</u></h3>

Culture influences psychological processes. The culture, beliefs, thoughts and actions all have an impact on how the mind works and processes different situations.

Cultural norms impact the thoughts of an individual and thereby the psychology of an individual.

Consider this animal cell.<br> Which organelles are labeled G?

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

In the animal cell the organelles that is labelled G is mitochondria.

Explanation:

Mitochondria are the membrane bound organelles with inner membranes folded inside which can form finger like structures called cristae. There numbers are more in the cell. They are basically responsible for the production of the energy, hence called as the power house of the cell. They also perform the cellular respiration, which means it takes the nutrients from the cell breaks it and makes energy from it. This energy is used by the cell to carry out various life processes.

True or false: The energy contained in the food we eat directly powers all of our cellular activities. If false, please make it

Gwar [14]

Answer:

False

"The energy contained in the food we eat is used to synthesize the energy that directly powers all of our cellular activities".

Explanation:

The food we eat undoubtedly contains energy. This energy is stored in the bonds of the molecules that make up the food. However, the food undergoes the process of digestion to yield glucose (a sugar). This glucose sugar is used in the process of CELLULAR RESPIRATION to synthesize a form of chemical energy usable by cells called ATP.

ATP or Adenosine triphosphate is a molecule that stores chemical energy in living cells. It is the molecule that directly powers all of our cellular activities. Hence, the statement in this question is FALSE. The correct statement should be "The energy contained in the food we eat is used to synthesize the energy that directly powers all of our cellular activities".

Theodor W. Engelmann illuminated a filament of algae with light that passed through a prism, thus exposing different segments of

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The correct answer is C and Engelmann conducted this experiment to prove relationship between algae and the rate of photosynthesis.

Explanation: First we must talk about 3 facts:

1) Prism scatters the white light into different wavelengths.

2) Photosynthesis, 6 carbon dioxide and 6 water molecules are consumed and 6 oxygen and 1 sugar molecule is synthesized using light energy.

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

3) Aerobic bacteria breaks down sugar while using oxygen and produces water and carbon dioxide in simplified terms.

So with this experimental setup a researcher can understand the rate of the photosynthesis by increased accumulation of aerobic bacteria near algae in certain wavelengths since they uses oxygen and tend to move close to the oxygen source (<u>see figure</u>). In this experiment there are no ways to measure heat (B), there is no known relation between wavelength of light and aerobic respiration since it can happen even in the dark (A) and finally there are no ways to measure carbon dioxide (D).
