The larynx is an nicknamed the "voice box" because it holds the vocal cords inside. It helps change the pitch and volume of our voices as we speak. It is the only part of the body capable of doing this job, so we don't ever want it removed. Our voices would be much more monotone sounding. The larynx connects the pharynx to the trachea in the neck. It is also capable of allowing air through for us to breathe, but does not let anything (food or drink) block the airway. This is obviously a daily function since we eat and drink numerous times daily and usually have no problems breathing while eating and drinking. This is thanks to the larynx.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
The correct answer is: (A).
Explanation:
- In the question, it is mentioned that the algae can grow under the conditions of "enough sunlight" and "enough nutrients".
- Sunlight reaches the algae, by first falling on the surface made up of ice and snow and then refracting from there into the top layer of the ice where the algae grows.
- However, the capability of both snow and ice to reflect sunlight is far more than that of refracting sunlight.
- Therefore, the amount of light received by the algae is similar in absence or presence of the layer of snow on the top layer of ice.
- However, on deposition of snow on the layer of the ice, the weight of the ice increases and it sinks below into sea water.
- This allows more nutrient rich sea water to percolate into the ice and reach the algae.
- The algae receive more nutrients from the sea water and hence is capable undergoing better metabolism and growth.
- Hence, more algae are produced under such a situation.
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that, through cellular respiration, can later be released to fuel the organism's metabolic activities

Research studies suggest that a high-fiber diet protects against colon cancer. This is because high fibrous food increases the bulk in the digestive tract to pass easily through the intestinal tract to shorten the time of passage. This short time of passage of food reduces the interaction of carcinogens present in the food with the intestinal tract. The fibers are broken down in butyrate by the bacteria present in the lower intestine. This butyrate inhibits the growth of tumors of colon and rectum,
