Answer:

The light reactions of many algae differ from those of land plants because some of them use different pigments to harvest light. Chlorophylls absorb primarily blue and red light, whereas carotenoids absorb primarily blue and green light, and phycobiliproteins absorb primarily blue or red light. Since the amount of light absorbed depends upon the pigment composition and concentration found in the alga, some algae absorb more light at a given wavelength, and therefore, potentially, those algae can convert more light energy of that wavelength to chemical energy via photosynthesis. All algae use chlorophyll a to collect photosynthetically active light. Green algae and euglenophytes also use chlorophyll b. In addition to chlorophyll a, the remaining algae also use various combinations of other chlorophylls, chlorophyllides, carotenoids, and phycobiliproteins to collect additional light from wavelengths of the spectrum not absorbed by chlorophyll a or b. The chromophyte algae, dinoflagellates, cryptomonads (class Cryptophyceae), and the class Micromonadophyceae, for example, also use chlorophyllides. (Chlorophyllides, often incorrectly called chlorophylls, differ from true chlorophylls in that they lack the long, fat-soluble phytol tail that is characteristic of chlorophylls.) Some green algae use carotenoids for harvesting photosynthetically active light, but the Dinophyceae and chromophyte algae almost always use carotenoids. Phycobiliproteins, which appear either blue (phycocyanins) or red (phycoerythrins), are found in red algae and cryptomonads.

Through the digestion system, water is mainly absorbed in the A. gallbladder. B. stomach. C. large intestine. D. small intestine
bogdanovich [222]
I would say D. small intestine

If you want an explanation, here it is

After leaving the stomach, water is absorbed mostly in the early segments of the
small intestine, the duodenum, and the jejunum. A small portion of all water absorption occurs in the stomach and the colon: the small intestine absorbs 6.5L/day, whereas the colon absorbs 1.3L/day.

Leona drew a diagram to compare ginkgoes and conifers. Which characteristic belongs in the area marked X? are deciduous produce
Citrus2011 [14]

The study of plants is called botany. There are different types of plants in the living being and these are algae, bryophytes, pteridophytes, gymnosperm, and angiosperm.

The correct answer is mentioned as follows:-

<h3>GYMNOSPERM</h3>
  • The less developed plant which does not bear flowers and has covered less seed is called gymnosperm.

According to the question, the diagram is not mentioned in the question hence we can not able to tell the characteristics of the area marked as X. The plants do not look like palm trees.

Hence, provide it with the diagram for better assessment.

For more information about the Gymnosperm, refer to the link:-

Which division of the diencephalon acts as an information filter for sensory information that is forwarded to the cerebrum?
muminat
<h2>The Thalamus.</h2>

Explanation:

Dencephalon is the part of the forebrain and includes three parts- epithalamus,thalamus and the hypothalamus.

Epithalamus is a non-nervous part , it remains fused with pia mater and forms the anterior choroid plexus.

The thalamus  is located between the midbrain and the cerebral cortex. It filters sensory information and directs them to appropriate parts of cerebrum.

Hypothalamus is located beneath the thalamus. It is an integrating center for many important homeostatic functions.
