Answer:
In cellular respiration it is a positive term, a process vital to life. But photorespiration is an entirely negative term because it represents a severe loss to the process of using light energy in photosynthetic organisms to fix carbon for subsequent carbohydrate synthesis.

Answer:
Secondary succession
Explanation:
Ecological succession is the term used to describe any series of change in the composition of an ecosystem over a particular period of time. Ecological succession is made up of two types viz: primary succession and secondary succession.
Primary succession involves the formation of a brand new ecosystem by the colonization of a barren area of land e.g bare rock, where no life existed. Secondary succession, on the other hand, is the recolonization of an area by a new set of organisms because the previously existing organisms have been wiped out by certain disasters e.g fire outbreak, hurricanes etc. In secondary succession, there is soil, which makes it possible for new organisms to sprout quickly after the calamity.
Example of secondary succession is when a fire outbreak burns the organisms in a community, allowing the root of grasses to sprout after.
D. Phytoplankton are most efficient

A. Liver B. Stomach
Explanation:
Liver detoxifies chemicals and metabolize drugs, stomach mixes the food and grind it
Answer: The genotype for the parent organism whose genotype is unknown is Ff.
Explanation: Let (F) represent the allele for purple which is dominant over (f) and (f) represent the allele for white.
The parent organism whose genotype is unknown is heterozygous for purple colour (Ff).
A cross between Ff and ff will produce four offsprings: two of which are Ff (heterozygous for purple colour) and two are ff (white).
Ff x ff = Ff, Ff, ff and ff.
Since (F) is dominant over (f), (Ff) will manifest as purple while (ff) will manifest as white. Therefore, half of the offsprings are purple while the other half are white.
