Answer:
B- Photosynthesis
Explanation:
Chloroplasts are <em>chlorophyll-containing, eukaryotic cell structures</em> that function in photosynthesis by absorbing energy from sunlight, combining this energy with water and CO2 to convert them to sugars . This cell structure is known as a plastid. The sugars produced, are important for the survival of the plant.
Chloroplasts reproduce on their own, independent of the whole cell because they contain their own DNA. Plant chloroplasts are located in guard cells in plant leaves. Closely linked to these guard cells are tiny pores called stomata, which allow gas exchange required for photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis occurs in two stages:
- The light reaction stage
- The dark reaction stage
The Light reaction stage takes place in the presence of light. Clorophyll converts light into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. Both molecules produced, are used in the dark stage to produce sugar.
In the dark reaction stage, the stroma, containing enzymes, facilitates reactions leading to the production of sugars from ATP and NADPH. This process is also called the carbon fixation stage. The sugar produced can be stored in the form of starch for other processes such as respiration.
In an energy absorbing reaction, the energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants. In an energy releasing reaction, the energy of the reactants is greater than the energy of the products.
The neurons conduct impulses over relatively long distance in the body. This is facilitated by their long cytoplasmic extensions
Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. This process is required to produce egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction. During reproduction, when the sperm and egg unit to form single cell for sexual reproduction. During reproduction, when the sperm and egg unit to form a single cell, the number of chromosome is restored in the offspring.
Meiosis begins with a parent cell that is diploid, meaning it has two copies of each chromosome. The parent cell undergoes one round of DNA replication followed by two separate cycles of nuclear division. The process results in four daughter cells that are haploid, which means they contain half the number of chromosomes of the diploid parent cell.
Due to the linneaus system of classification scientist were able to identify organism name , group via standardized system . They have found similarities in the organism like DNA / RNA ( genetic composition), embryonic development etc . so that they can study a organism completely . With the help of this system of classification scientist were able to give a particular name to a organism which is standardrized in the whole universe. It makes easier to all to identify an organism , otherwise different places have different name for a particular species.
