Hey there!

Your answer is a. white poster board.

The color an object appears as depends on what colors of light are reflected vs absorbed.

If an object appears as black, that means it doesn't reflect light, but it absorbs the light.

If an object appears as white, that means it doesn't absorb light, but it reflects the light.

White light is all colors of light mixed together.

So, the white poster board is the object reflecting almost all the light that strikes it.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

White poster board  

Explanation:

White light consists of all the colours in the rainbow. A white poster board reflects almost of the white light that hits it, so it appears white to our eyes.

B is wrong. Clear window gas is transparent. Almost all the light that hits it passes straight through

C. is wrong. A bright overhead light is a light source. It is generating its own light.

D is wrong. Black construction paper absorbs almost all the light that hits it. It reflects no light to our eyes, so it appears black.

<h3>Oxidative Phosphorylation</h3>

Explanation:

The process by which ATP is generated by utilizing the large amount of energy released during the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH₂ to the O₂  through a series of electron carrier present in the mitochondrial membrane is called oxidative phosphorylation.

The process of electron transfer is accompanied by the pumping of protons across inner membrane of mitochondria, from the  mitochondrial matrix to intermembrane space establishing electrochemical proton gradient.

The ATP synthase complex present in the mitochondrial membrane allows the protons to move down the proton gradient  as a result enough energy is released to add a phosphate group to ADP and form ATP inside the mitochondrial matrix.

How do you think the Law of Universal Gravitation State connects why apples fall down and planets circle in orbit?
Leviafan [203]
Apples are drawn to a massive object, like the earth, and fall down under a gravitational constant. On the other hand, planets revolve around a more massive object under the same premise. It’s the same idea, just one follows a linear path, and the other has a uniform circular motion path because other forces are acting on it. In other words, the planets ARE still falling, but the sun is also pulled by them so they just keep dancing.
