Answer: The wavelength of light increases.

Explanation:

As we proceed outward from the innermost band of the rainbow the wavelength of light increases.

when light travels through a prism, the wavelengths separate into different colors (which are colors of the rainbow). These colors are Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. Each color has a different wavelength. Violet has the shortest wavelength of about 380 nanometers and red has the longest of about 700 nanometers. When you look at a rainbow, the innermost portion has a violet coloration while the outer most is red, hence the wavelength of light increases from the innermost band to the outermost. That is, from about 380 nanometers to about 700 nanometers.

The plasma membrane of the enveloped alga cell serves as the source of the apicoplast's second outermost membrane.

<h3>Where did all chloroplasts come from?</h3>

Chloroplasts were first established in eukaryotes through an endosymbiotic relationship with a cyanobacterium; they later spread through the evolution of eukaryotic hosts and the subsequent engulfment of eukaryotic algae by formerly nonphotosynthetic eukaryotes.

<h3>How did eukaryotic cells develop mitochondria and chloroplasts?</h3>

Chloroplasts and mitochondria most likely developed from engulfed bacteria that once existed as autonomous organisms. An aerobic bacterium was eventually swallowed by a eukaryotic cell, which later established an endosymbiotic bond with the host eukaryote and gradually transformed into a mitochondrion.

What are the advantages of live birth compared to ovulation?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer

Just think critically about why (if you were an egg laying species), having a fetus/baby develop inside of you would be advantageous.

For one, eggs are much less protected from outside factors such as predators, temperature, etc than live birthed creatures. Live birth provides protection inside the mothers body from things such as heat, cold, moisture, predatory animals, etc. An egg laying animal must keep its eggs at a perfect temperature and check to make sure no other animal has eaten them.

If the part of our skin we can see is made of dead cells,<br> why is it painful to get a tattoo?
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Well, it’s because tattoos have to get that ink deep enough that it won’t get washed away but not too deep so it remains visible — the ideal location ends up being right next to your skin’s pain receptors.
