Answer: 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H1206 + 6O2
Explanation: This is a balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, six molecules of carbon dioxide react with six molecules of water in the presence of sunlight to form one molecule of glucose and six molecules of oxygen. Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants manufacture their own food using sunlight. Plants cells have an organelle known as chloroplast which contains chlorophyll a green pigment that traps energy from the sun. The energy trapped by the chlorophyll is used by plants in the presence of carbon dioxide and water to drive the synthesis of glucose with the release of oxygen as the by-products.
Answer:
__ It implies that prokaryotes existed before eukaryotes, and
__ It implies that eukaryotes evolved from prokaryotes.
Explanation:
The prefix pro- can mean "before". By using the term prokaryote one can tend to think that procaryotes preceded eukaryotes.
Preceed as existed before them, or as an evolutionary point of view.

Answer:
They act to regulate the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive)
Explanation:
Testosterone is a reproductive hormone in male humans. Testosterone as well as its closely related hormones e.g dihydrotestosterone, all belong to a class of hormones called "Androgens".
Androgens operate by entering into a cell and binds with specific androgen-receptor proteins (AR proteins). This contact activates the AR proteins, forming an androgen-receptor complex.
This complex then translocates into the nucleus of specific cells to bind to the DNA. Once it binds, it either inhibits or promotes the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive). Hence, AR proteins are transcription factors because they play a significant role in regulating transcription of specific genes i.e. turning 'on' or 'off' of specific genes.
This process helps to direct the development of male sexual characteristics.
