denis-greek [22]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A) Chloroplasts transform light energy into chemical energy.

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are plastids, cellular organelles inherent in plant cells, which contain a green pigment, chlorophyll, by which they perform photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is a process in which, with the help of chlorophyll, solar energy is converted into chemical energy in order to use that chemical energy (ATP) for the synthesis of organic matter from inorganic matter (CO2 and H2O).

Mitosis and meiosis are similar processes, but they have some very important differences. Explain how mitosis and meiosis are al
solmaris [256]
Similarities: Mitosis and meiosis both involve cell replication. They both involve prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Differences: Meiosis creates gametes while mitosis creates somatic cells. Mitosis creates two daughter cells, while meiosis creates four sperm cells in men and one egg cell and three polar bodies in women. Mitosis involves one round of cell division, while meiosis involves two. Mitosis creates cells that have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell, while meiosis creates cells that have half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.
Hope that helped you. 
P.S. There are more similarities and differences, challenge yourself and see if you can find them! Good luck.

What are the cells in animals that are used to destroy bacteria and viruses after combining with lysosomes
AVprozaik [17]

T killer cell or Cytotoxic T cells  are the cells in animals that are used to destroy bacteria and viruses after combining with lysosomes.

<u>Explanation</u>:        

The T cells kills the bacteria and virus. The T cells can easily identify the pathogen when combined with the lysosomes. The activated T cells releases a material called perforin. This substance gets into the walls of the affected cell and punctures its walls. Due to hole in the walls, there happens discharge of fluid and electrolytes, which leads to the death of the cell.  The substance secreted is the cytolytic proteins from the lysosome which helps in destruction of the infected cells.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Coevolution

Explanation:

Ehrlich and Raven observed butterfly species and their host plants. Plant species had adopted a series of defence mechanisms against butterflies. In response the butterflies also evolved new traits to avoid these defence mechanisms.

In this way both butterflies and plants influenced each other's traits and they co evolved. The coevolution can lead to accumulation of lot of different characteristics which can lead to formation of new species and species diversification. Formation of new species will be observed both in plants and butterflies.
