As one moves across a period, from left to right, both the number of protons and electrons of a neutral atom increase. The enhancing number of electrons and protons results in a greater attraction between the electrons and the nucleus. This uplifted attraction pulls the electrons nearer to the nucleus, therefore, reducing the size of the atom.
On the other hand, while moving down a group, there is an increase in the number of energy levels. The enhanced number of energy levels increases the size of the atom in spite of the elevation in the number of protons. In the outermost energy levels, the protons get attracted towards the nucleus, however, the attraction is less due to an increase in the distance from the nucleus.
Answer:
The correct answer is - (Choice A) A Photosynthetic plants can move carbon from the atmosphere into an ecosystem’s food web.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is the process performed by photosynthetic or green plants in presence of light atmospheric carbon dioxide and water converted into glucose (6 carbon compound) and oxygen.
This glucose or sugar is utilized by the plants that are producers in the ecosystem food web. These producers are fed by consumers and carbon molecules transfer from all the trophic levels in the food chain or food web in the process.
Explanation:
Potential energy is the the relationship between work done height mass and acceleration due to gravity, because of this some objects also experience kinetic energy due to the factors mentioned above
