The pea aphid, a type of insect, contains light-capturing pigments in its exoskeleton. Pea aphids gained the ability to synthesi

ze these pigments from genes transferred from fungi. While pea aphids do not have chloroplasts or fix carbon, researchers have found that pea aphids with more pigments have higher levels of ATP than those with fewer pigments. Pea aphids also have been shown to increase production of ATP when exposed to sunlight. Based on this information, is the pea aphid an autotroph? A. Yes, because the pea aphid does not need to use energy from food. B. No, because the pea aphid depends on genes from fungii to utilize energy from sunlight. C. Yes, because the pea aphid can store energy from the sun in ATP molecules. D. No, because the pea aphid is unable to use the energy from sunlight. I NEED HELP

Answer: An autotroph is an organism that can generate it's own nutrients. In the example, you see a relationship which allows the pea aphid to gain more energy, but not produce it.

And heterotroph is an organisms that can't generate it's own nutrients, and therefore needs to feed on something, which is the case of pea aphids.

What is the difference between a lake and a pond? a. A pond is smaller in size and does not have a temperature gradient. b. A po
Ksju [112]

Answer:

I think the answer is A.

Explanation:

Ponds and lakes are both inland bodies of freshwater that contain living creatures. Lakes are normally much deeper than ponds and have a larger surface area. ... All the water in a pond is in the photic zone, meaning ponds are shallow enough to allow sunlight to reach the bottom.

  The yearly process known as thermal stratification. A pond that is thermally stratified simply means that there is a noticeable temperature gradient as the water gets deeper. You may have noticed this in summer while swimming.

How does the process of natural selection work?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

If I am correct it is when the weaker individuals or mutated individuals are killed of by other predators or by nature. Because they cannot survive this is natural selection because they are killed of by nature. Then if they are weak their species will go extinct, thus they are naturally selected to die and only the strong species remain.

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Between silver and aluminum wires of same thickness and length, silver will offer lesser resistance.

Explanation:

Aluminum will offer higher resistance than silver (both having same thickness and length).

Silver has lesser resistivity than aluminum.

Resistivity is directly proportional to resistance.

Thus, between to wires of distinct materials, one with higher resistivity will offer greater resistance.
