Answer: A) The rate of photosynthesis would decrease and less glucose would be produced.

Explanation: Photosynthesis is a phenomenon in which green plants containing chlorophyll use sunlight as a source of energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to form glucose and oxygen.

Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to convert energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy in the form of glucose which is used a s a source of energy by many organisms.

6CO_2+6H_2O\overset{sunlight}\rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2

Thus decreasing the amount of sunlight would decrease the rate of photosynthesis and less glucose will be produced.

Lostsunrise [7]
<span>Meiosis in simple terms is the process by which gametes (sperm and egg) fuse together to produce a fertilised egg. Haploid is a word that refers to how many chromosomes a certain cell has. In this case the gametes have a haploid number of chromosomes, which is half the number a normal cell has. A normal cell has a diploid number of chromosomes. So in meiosis the two gametes come together with their hapoid number of chromosomes each to create an egg that has a diploid (standard) number of chromosomes.</span>

The angle of Earth's tilt has changed throughout Earth's history and is still changing today. If Earth's tilt were to decrease
olganol [36]

Answer:

The world climate would drastically change.

Explanation:

  • First off, both poles would have rapid expansion, with the freezing of more water near the poles.
  • Many species of trees and plants would die out in certain areas, since they tend to be in their ideal locations, so the change in climate will make the northern parts of many habitats destroyed.
  • Deserts would expand and the average temperature would rise.
  • Also, many animals would also die out, because of the change in their environments.
  • Conifers would shift southward, causing many forests / parts of forests to turn into wastelands, causing the earth's oxygen production to decrease.

In humans, the quadriceps muscle is a skeletal leg muscle under voluntary control. As such, it contracts in response to signals
Masja [62]

Answer:

The correct answer is - operation of reflex arc.

Explanation:

The reflex arc is a unique and special type of neural pathway that starts with a sensory neuron and ends with a motor neuron. In this operation sensory neuron acts as the receptor and motor neuron is effector. This type of neural circuit helps in faster response.

Voluntary muscles like quadriceps muscle are normally in control voluntarily however, such muscle may contract involuntary due to reflex arc. This type of contraction takes place before the signal has even reached the brain.

In this response the sensory neuron takes the signal to the spinal cord and then motor neuron to the effector muscle for faster response.

Thus, the correct answer is - operation of reflex arc.
