<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.

<span>d. sporangia.
is a structure that can be found in unicellular and multicellular organisms that encloses spores. Organisms that form sporangia in their life cycles are plants, fungi and algae among others.</span>
Answer:
C) They are compressed during inhalation.
Explanation:
Birds breathe through rigid lungs that are located in the animal's thoracic region. The trachea of birds divides into bronchi that branch inside the lungs into very thin tubes called parabronchials or parabroncholes, which are irrigated by blood capillaries that allow gas exchange.
In birds there are no pulmonary alveoli (as in mammals), but air capillaries that depart from the parabroncholes. Oxygen gas passes from these capillaries to the blood capillaries, thus causing gas exchange.
In the lower portion of the bird's trachea, before branching the bronchi, we can find the syringe, a bag-like structure that has vocal cords responsible for the birds' scream and song. Most of the time, the sound emitted by birds serves to attract the mate, mark territory and prevent birds of the same species against some predator or other danger.
This statement about matter is true: MATTER IS MADE UP OF ATOMS AND HAS MASS.
Matter is defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. The mass of an object is the measure of the extent to which the object can resist a change in its direction when a force is applied to it. A matter is usually made up of atoms, which is defined as the smallest component of any matter. Therefore matter is made up of atoms and it has mass.
