Genes code for proteins. That way they determine biological structures and functions. Besides genes, the environment has the great impact on the structure of an organism. Alleles and genes will give a trait, but the environment can affect it. For example, alleles that are responsible for height will give a person some average height. But if the person begins to train basketball at the early age (during growth), the person will overcome the average height. This is the effect of the environment and not genes. The other example is that if a person lives in a sunny region, the person will be tan.
Seeds divide by meiosis because mitosis is a continuous process of division in animal multicellular organisms where as meiosis occurs in plants to produce gametophytes.
The correct answer is : Light energy is captured by plants; light energy is converted to chemical energy.
In the process of photosynthesis, special pigment molecule called chlorophyll can capture the energy of the light, more specifically the photon. When a particle of light (a photon) with a specific energy reaches this pigment in the leaves of plants, the energy is transferred from the particle to the molecule, and the molecule becomes excited. This is the phase where the energy of the light is captured and transformed into chemical energy that can later be used to make sugars.
All of the later chemical processes that transfer the energy from the excited chlorophyll to the sugar molecules are not dependent on the light and can happen during the night as well.
