Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The amount of light available to Chlorella culture might affect the growth dynamics of the alga <u>because the light is an important factor necessary for the synthesis of carbohydrates and other important molecules in the body of the organism.</u>

The process of synthesizing carbohydrates is termed photosynthesis and during this process, the energy of light is used to excite the photosystem of the chlorophyll of the organism, leading to the release of electrons whose energy is used to synthesize an energy molecule that is utilized in the latter part of the photosynthetic process. The entire process of photosynthesis can be summarised as an equation below:

$6CO_2 + 6H_2O + light --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2$

<em>The manufactured carbohydrates act as food for the organism and are broken down during respiration to release energy necessary to drive metabolic processes that bring about growth and development.</em>

Hence, the amount of light is an important factor that might affect the growth dynamics of all green plants, including the Chlorella.

I was supposed to describe my personality, talents, and passions

OLga [1]

You sound unsure of yourself and you list negatives (not super negative but they’re not great) attributes about yourself. try listing more positive things about yourself besides you being “bored”, “annoying”, or “lazy”. Maybe you have a hobby like drawing or playing games, add things like that

Lymphocytes produce special proteins against foreign invaders called _____.

LiRa [457]

Through my research I found matching questions with similar answers:

A) macrophages
B) antigens
C) antibodies
D) lymph

The best answer to fill in the blank would be the third option C) Antibodies which in the name anti means against, so since the word anti is the same as against, its a battle between antibodies and invaders, so that's why its C).

Facilitated diffusion occurs

Alex777 [14]

Facilitated diffusion occurs in the cell body. It is the process of transporting particles into and out of a cell membrane. Energy is not required because the particles move along the concentration gradient. Permeable means that particles, ions, or water can cross the membrane. Hope I’ve helped ;)
