STEP ONE: Harvesting Radiant Energy
The first step of photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells. Light photons are absorbed by a pigment called chlorophyll, which is abundant in the thylakoid membrane of each chloroplast. Chlorophyll appears green to the eye because it does not absorb green waves on the light spectrum. It reflects them instead, so that’s the color you see.
STAGE 2: Converting Radiant Energy
After radiant energy from sunlight is absorbed, the plant converts light energy into a usable form of chemical energy to fuel the plant’s cells
STAGE 3: Storing Radiant Energy
The last stage of the photosynthesis process is known as the Calvin-Benson cycle, in which the plant uses atmospheric carbon dioxide and water from soil to convert ATP and NADPH. The chemical reactions that make up the Calvin-Benson cycle occur in the stroma of the chloroplast.
The biconcave cells in blood that lack nuclei when they are mature are the red blood corpuscles.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The blood contains a combination of cells especially the Red blood corpuscles, white blood corpuscles and the blood platelets. The major function of the Red blood corpuscles is to carry oxygen and supply to all the parts of the body from the lungs and similarly carry carbon dioxide and supply to all parts of the body . To facilitate this it does not have a nuclei.
As the air inside a balloon decreases, its volume (amount of space occupied by the object) decreases, meaning the balloon gets smaller.
During photosynthesis, chlorophyll absorb light energy that is used to convert carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil into glucose. Oxygen is released as a by-product. Some glucose is used for respiration, while some is converted into insoluble starch.
Answer: The correct answer is option (B).
Explanation:
Birth rate in Hungary in 2014 = 12 (per 1000 people)
Death rate in Hungary in 2014= 8 (per 1000 people)
Growth rate = Birth rate - Death rate :
12(per 1000 people) - 4 (per 1000 people)= +4(per 1000 people)
Positive sign indicates that there will be a increase in growth rate by the magnitude of 4 per 1000 people in 2014.
Hence, the correct answer is option (B).
