Answer:
The correct option is <em>3. they break down rock into soil in which plants can grow</em>
Explanation:
When a disaster is such huge that even the soil and organic matter get removed from the place, then the succession that will occur in such kind of place will be termed as primary succession. For example, a volcanic eruption or an earthquake.
On the other hand, if after a disaster some of the organic matter remains on the land, then the succession that will occur will be termed as secondary succession. E.g a succession after fire
In primary succession, the pioneer species will be plants that require less soil such as the lichens. The lichens will break down the rocks into the soil and eventually new species of plants will start to grow on the land.
B. Increased exposure to UV light increases the risk of mutation occurring.
Answer:
<u>-blue and red light</u>
Explanation:
Plants produce sugars or carbohydrates during the process of photosynthesis. They absorb light energy from the electromagnetic spectrum with pigments within the thylakoid membrane, like chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b.
Chlorophylls are made of ringed molecules chlorine, a hydrogenated form of porphyrin with a magnesium ion bonded to four atoms of nitrogen. Chlorophyll a shows the most absorption of red light (642 nm) and blue light (372 nm); while chlorophyll b shows the most absorption at 626 nm and 392 nm.
Different types of chlorophyll sidechains change the molecules' absorption ranges; A's methyl group is bound at carbon 7, B's aldehyde (CHO) ring is bound at carbon 7. Both absorb light from orange-red and violet-blue wavelengths. As such, the best light wavelengths for photosynthesis are within the blue and red wavelengths (425–450 nm) and (600–700 nm).
