The correct answer is : Light energy is captured by plants; light energy is converted to chemical energy.

In the process of photosynthesis, special pigment molecule called chlorophyll can capture the energy of the light, more specifically the photon. When a particle of light (a photon) with a specific energy reaches this pigment in the leaves of plants, the energy is transferred from the particle to the molecule, and the molecule becomes excited. This is the phase where the energy of the light is captured and transformed into chemical energy that can later be used to make sugars.

All of the later chemical processes that transfer the energy from the excited chlorophyll to the sugar molecules are not dependent on the light and can happen during the night as well.

28. What specific adaptation has the sub-type of CAM plants derived to reduce the amount of water lost in dry environments?

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: a. Stomata open at Night

Explanation:

As a tactic to minimize photorespiration in warm regions, many water-storing plants such as cacti and pineapples modified its method of carbon fixation. This process is called Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM), following the plant family Crassulaceae, in which it was first identified. In these plants, the stomata (singular, stoma), specialized openings in the leaves of all plants through which CO2 enters and water vapor is lost, open during the night and close during the day. This model of stomatal opening and closing is the opposite of that in most plants.

How many protons are in the nucleus of a carbon atom

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

i'm pretty sure its 6 protons.

Explanation:

Carbon-14 is an isotope of the element carbon. All carbon atoms have 6 protons in their nucleus. Most carbon atoms also have 6 neutrons, giving them an atomic mass of 12.// = 6 protons + 6 neutrons\\. Carbon-14 atoms have two extra neutrons, which is a total of 8 neutrons.

In the fall, a tree's will change color and fall off. Later in the winter, the tree will not have any leaves and will be dormant. Soon the seasons change again. In the spring, leaves will start to grow back, and flowers will bloom. In the summer, leaves will stay full and green.
