2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami<span>The 2011 earthquake off the Pacific coast of Tōhoku was a magnitude 9.0–9.1 undersea megathrust earthquake off the coast of Japan that occurred at 14:46 JST on Friday 11 March 2011, with the epicentre approximately 70 kilometres east of the Oshika Peninsula of Tōhoku and the hypocenter at an underwater depth of approximately 29 km. The earthquake is also often referred to in Japan as the Great East Japan earthquake and also known as the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake, and the 3.11 earthquake. It was the most powerful earthquake ever recorded to have hit Japan, and the fourth most powerful earthquake in the world since modern record-keeping began in 1900. The earthquake triggered powerful tsunami waves that reached heights of up to 40.5 meters. got from Wikipedia, need anything else let me know</span>
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.
Answer:
The observable traits expressed by an organism are referred to
EXPLANATION:
An organism's underlying genetic makeup, consisting of both physically visible and non-expressed alleles, is called its genotype. Mendel's hybridization experiments demonstrate the difference between phenotype and genotype.
Answer:
Biological evolution
Explanation:
<em>Biological evolution is defined as the formation of complex organisms from single ancestral type over a large time period. Evolution believes that all living organisms descended from a common ancestor but not without modification.</em>
There are several evidence to support the theory of evolution including morphological evidence, paleontological evidence, biochemical evidence, among others.
The similarity in the structure and components of DNA of all living organisms is one of the evidence pointing to the fact that living organisms might truly have been from a common ancestor. In addition, all living organisms tend to use ATP largely as their source of energy, giving further credence to evolution theory.
I believe it is called lipogenesis.
