During photosynthesis, plants convert radiant energy into chemical energy. The amount of chemical energy produced is less than t

he amount of energy absorbed by the plant in the form of light. Which best explains what happens to the remaining light energy?

Answer:

.It is lost as heat due to energy transformation.

Explanation:

When plants make sugar they convert light energy into chemical energy. The heat energy released is equivalent to the light energy which a plant requires to make sugar out of carbondioxide and water. During photosynthesis, energy of light is absorbed by chlorophyll and is lost as heat due to energy transformation. Oxygen is released as by products and diffuses out of the plant into the atmosphere.

Ability to roll the tongue is caused by a dominant allele. A woman is a "roller," but one of her parents is not. Reference: Ref
matrenka [14]

Answer:

1/2.

Explanation:

The autosomal dominant trait may en defined as the trait that can express itself even in the heterozygous condition and in the homozygous dominant condition as well.

Let the B allele is responisble for the roll tongue and b is recessive allele. The woman can roll the tongue and she must have the genotype Bb because her one parents is normal. The woman married with a man with non roller ( bb). The Bb × bb cross results in the following progeny Dd, Dd ( roller), dd and dd ( non roller). The probability of the child being a roller is 1/2,

Thus, the answer is 1/2.

After a dye diffuses uniformly throughout a glass of water, the dye molecules are no longer moving. True or false?
Anton [14]
The answer is false, liquid molecules continue to move even after the concentration is uniform.

Diffusion happens because there’s a concentration gradient between the dye and the water, therefore dye molecules moves to the water area. But note that this is only the net movement of the molecules, which means, even if more molecules are moving towards water, there are still some dye molecules that are moving in the opposite direction.

So, after the concentration is equal, the motion of the dye molecules does not stop, they still move in random directions, but there’s no net movement instead, as there’s no concentration gradient. Remember molecules are always moving in all directions , it just depends on whether there’s a net movement or not. If there’s no net movement, the amount of molecules moving to each and every direction is always equal.

The illustration shows one of the ways resources are removed from the deep sea. Describe what type of resources these are, inclu
just olya [345]

Answer:

Marine mining is a process that can be done by dredging the seabed and is used for the extraction of mineral resources from the seabed, which are non-renewable, with a negative impact on marine ecosystems.

Explanation:

The illustration shows a process of marine mining by dredging, where the resource extracted is of a mineral nature, like copper, zinc, silver and gold. Gravel used for construction can also be extracted from the sea. Mineral resources extracted from the sea are not renewable.

The process of marine mining can be harmful to the ecosystems there, so it must be a process that requires control and management from the ecological point of view.

Two possible consequences of not regulating marine mining are:

  1. <u><em>Destruction of the habitat of life forms present on the sea floor</em></u><em>, which endangers many species and even forces migration to more stable areas, with consequences on the food chains. </em>
  2. <em><u>Extinction of marine species that inhabit the seabed</u></em><em>. The flora and fauna of the sea floor usually have slow reproductive cycles and, in the case of fish, spawning takes place on the bottom of the sea. Mining endangers the reproductive cycles of the species, leading to induced extinction.</em>

Responsible and controlled mining activity can be useful for humans, while avoiding negative consequences on the ecosystems that exist at the seabed.
