The four soil samples have not been provided. They have been attached.

Answer:

Soil #1

Explanation:

Good soil for cultivation has sufficient organic matter because it provides nutrients for the growing plant. It also binds the soil particles together, increasing its water retention capacity.

The soil should also have more quantity of silt and less quantity of sand or pebbles because silt improves aeration and water retention in soil. Clay has extremely small particles. Sand particles and pebbles are too big. Silt does not have extreme sized particles like them and hence is ideal.

Out of the given options only soil #1 has organic matter, sand, clay and silt together. Hence, it is the best soil for growing a tomato plant.

The answer is:  " 32,768 " .
___________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________________________
 →  2ⁿ  = ? ;  {that is: "2" , raised to the "n th" power, equals {<u>what value</u>} ?
___________________________________________
 → Note that "n" is the haploid number, which is: 
                           "15" (value given within this very question).
__________________________________________________
→ So we plug in "15" for "n" ; to obtain the "final value" —
                                                          which is the answer.
__________________________________________________
           →  As such:  " 2¹⁵ = 32,768 " .  (using scientific calculator online).

Select the most accurate statement describing the basic function of the light reactions of photosynthesis. Select the most accur
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The basic function of the light reactions of photosynthesis is the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy.

Explanation:

In photosynthesis, the light energy is captured by chlorophyll pigment which is present in the thylakoid membrane. Then this light energy is used split water which releases the electron that enters the electron transport chain. Then electrons move through several electron carriers and helps to generates NADPH and ATP.  

These NADPH and ATP are used in the Calvin cycle to fix the carbon into carbohydrates like glucose. Glucose molecules is then used by the plant to get energy source and to make structural components like cell wall. Therefore during photosynthesis solar energy is converted into chemical energy like glucose.
