Coal
Coal is a combustible black rock that is formed from prehistoric plant remains. Coal is formed from the anaerobic decomposition of dead plant matter such as trees, ferns, mosses and other marsh plants that grew on the earth surface over millions of years ago. Coal is composed largely of carbon and is usually burned as a fuel.
Answer:
<em>(I) Lamarckism or Theory of Inheritance of Acquired characters.</em>
This theory is based on the comparison between the contemporary species of Jean Baptiste de Lamarck's time to fossil records.
<em>(II) Darwinism or Theory of Natural Selection.</em>
Charles Darwin made an extensive study of nature for over 20 years, especially in 1831-1836 when he went on a voyage on the famous ship “H.M.S. Beagle” and explored South America, the Galapagos Islands and other islands.
<em>(III) Mutation theory of De Vries.</em>
The mutation theory of evolution was proposed by a Dutch botanist, Hugo de Vries (1848-1935 A.D.) in 1901 A.D. in his book entitled “Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation”. He worked on evening primrose (Oenothera lamarckiana).
<em>(IV) Neo-Darwinism or Modern concept or Synthetic theory of evolution.</em>
The detailed studies of Lamarckism, Darwinism and Mutation theory of evolution showed that no single theory is fully satisfactory. Neo-Darwinism is a modified version of theory of Natural Selection and is a sort of reconciliation between Darwin’s and de Vries theories.
Answer: d. None of the above is false.
Explanation: The reasons are:
Intermolecular forces should be reduced when molecules need to be vaporized, otherwise they will not be converted into vapours.
When the temperature increases, forces of attraction decreases which allows molecules to evaporate because energy will be increased which allows molecule to break bonding between them. Hence increasing temperature has effect on vaporization.
Dispersion forces is the weakest force between molecules and hydrogen bond is strong so molecule having only dispersion force will evaporate at the higher rate.
Answer:
Plants capturing light energy to form simple sugars using water and carbon dioxide is called
photosynthesis
