Answer:
Explanation:
An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals. Because autotrophs produce their own food, they are sometimes called producers.
Answer:
Over 95% of incoming ultraviolet radiation is absorbed in :
A. The Stratosphere.
Explanation:
- Stratosphere is the second layer of the earth's atmosphere that lies next to the troposphere.
- This layer experiences very little turbulence of air and is very significant because of the presence of Ozone layer in it.
- The UV rays entering the Earth's atmosphere, photo dissociates ozone into O₂ and O. But these molecules quickly recombine to form ozone.Thus, stabilizing the concentration of ozone in the atmosphere.
- During this photo dissociation UV radiations loses much of its energy. Thus, 95% of incoming Ultraviolet radiation gets absorbed in the Stratosphere.
- Absorption of ozone UV radiation increases exponentially with the thickness of ozone layer.
Determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids.)
the sequence of amino acids in an protein is determined by the nucleotides in the DNA encoding it
Answer:
A. more oxygen to enter the atmosphere
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is a metabolic process unique to the cells of autotrophic organisms, due to the possession of the CHLOROPHYLL pigments used in trapping light energy from the sun. Photosynthesis is the process of combining carbondioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) using energy of sunlight to produce glucose and release oxygen gas.
Based on the understanding of the photosynthetic process which is similar in all photosynthetic organisms including photosynthetic prokaryotes e.g. cyanobacteria, the presence of the photosynthetic PROKARYOTE will allow more oxygen in the atmosphere.
Note that, oxygen is released during photosynthesis.
