Answer:
The correct answer is option D. Light and some other factors are necessary for chlorophyll production
Explanation:
By this experiment, it is clear that light is the major factor that helps in the production of chlorophyll in seedlings or plants. In this study, placing the seeds in the light turns 75 seedlings green which is possible by the production of the green pigment, chlorophyll only. So, it is proved that light is a key factor in the production of chlorophyll.
Besides light, there must be some other factors (mineral nutrition and chemical metabolites) that also play role in the production of chlorophyll or increase or decrease of the chlorophyll production as few seedlings did not turn green in the study.
C from the sun to bird to worm
The correct answer is option B. shown that the tidal forces needed to move continents would stop Earth’s rotation.
The Wegener’s idea that tidal forces might cause continental drift suggested that the tidal force and the centrifugal forces on the earth was the cause of the movement of the plates.
But, he was unable to propose the mechanism of such movement. Also, if the centrifugal force of the earth would move the plates apart, then the earth below it should remain stationary, but the earth is in continuous rotation, so, this idea was not acceptable, as it is would stop rotation of earth.
