Light is one of the fastest growing pollutants for the natural environment which is created by humans. The impact of light on animals is negative which are active during day, crepuscular or nocturnal species also have influence in their general behavior. The DNA of the living organisms is encoded according to the Earth’s natural rhythm of day and night. Scientific evidences have shown negative as well as deadly effect on plants, insects, birds, mammals etc.  The plant and animal physiology is negatively impacted by the artificial light and specially the nocturnal species by altering the predator-prey relationship, migratory pattern of birds and animals is affected and the humans also have serious health effects. Light pollution basically interferes with natural biological activities of plants and animals according to the biological clock.

1. Enzyme is the molecule that serves to make reactions work. Enzymes are biochemical catalysts that catalyses chemical reactions in a cell by acting on substrates and convert them to products. Their rate of action increases with increase in substrate concentration, reaching optimum when all active sites of the enzyme are engaged.

2. Plastid are the tiny sacs in the cell that may contain starch. Plastid are major cell organelles found in the cells of plants and algae. Plastids are site for the manufacture and storage of important  chemical compounds used by the cell. They often contain pigments used in photosynthesis, and the types of pigments present can change or determine cells color.

3. Lysosome are packets within the cell that contain digestive enzymes. Lysosomes are one of many organelles found in animal cells. they are tiny like sacs filled with enzymes that enables the cell to process nutrients. They contain digestive enzymes which helps in the digestion of worn out organelles, food particles and engulfed viruses or bacteria.

4. Mitochondrion is a structure within a cell that is responsible for production of energy. Energy in a cell is produced through a process of cellular respiration which involves use of nutrients with oxygen gas to yield energy inform of ATP, water and carbon dioxide. The process takes place in the mitochondrion where oxygen acts as proton acceptor in the electron transport chain coupled by production of energy.

5. An Organelle is a small structure that serves specialized functions. A cell is made up of various organelles that help it perform its functions. Each organelle is specialized to perform as specific function different from other organelles, for example ribosomes is an organelle involved in the manufacture of proteins.

6. Golgi apparatus are group of flattened sacs that package and export materials out of the cell. Golgi apparatus also called golgi complex or golgi body, is a membrane bound organelle in eukaryotic cells that is made up by a series of flattened, stacked pouches called cisternae. They are responsible for transporting, modifying, and packaging proteins and lipids into vesicles.

7. Vesicles are tiny sacs connected to the Endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. Vesicles are small structures within a cell, or extracellular, consisting of fluid enclosed by a lipid bi-layer. they form naturally during the process of secretion (exocytosis), uptake (endocytosis) and transport of materials within the cytoplasm.

marissa [1.9K]
D. because White paper reflects all of the light that hits it. Whatever color that light is, the paper appears to be that color, since paper of that color would reflect only that color if white light was shone on it. That is, blue paper reflects the same color when white light is shone on it as white paper does when blue is shone on it.

Airida [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option Complex neuroendocrine response.

Explanation:

Hypothalamus is the thermostat of the body as it regulates and maintains body temperature by responding to external signals or stimuli and adjusts the body temperature in a close one to two degree of 98.6 degree.

The regulation involves a different type of endocrine hormones and thyroid gland and receptors that help in signaling the increase or decrease of body temperature it involves neurons and hormones.

Due to the response of thermoreceptors and hormones is known as the neuroendocrine response. Hypothalamus Involves two or more hormones and several steps it known as a complex response.

Thus, the correct answer is a Complex neuroendocrine response.
