Explain where photosynthesis takes place? What is the function of this organelle?
Damm [24]

Answer:

Chloroplast

its function is to create chemical energy using light energy

Explanation:

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts which can be compared to mitochondria because they both produce energy for the organism. The Chloroplast contains within it a pigment, chlorophyll which captures the sun's energy and turns into energy which is used to create other parts of photosynthesis. Chloroplasts capture light energy from the sun to produce the free energy stored in ATP and NADPH through a process called photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are one of the many organelles found in the body, and are generally considered to have originated as endosymbiotic cyanobacteria. In this aspect, they are similar to mitochondria but are found only in plants and protist.

How could the movement of tectonic plates create another supercontinent like Pangaea
Margaret [11]
<span>When the landmasses are again collected together in a specific area

The Pangea theory supports the theory of plate tectonics because it is based on the idea that all the present continents were one super-continent. For reasons still unknown, the super-continent got separated and created separate smaller continents. This theory also supports the fact that this movement will continue until the day arrives when all the smaller continents will again merge in a different configuration to create another super-continent. </span>
