photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.
Answer:All living things are made of cells, use energy, respond to stimuli, grow and reproduce, and maintain homeostasis. All living things consist of one or more cells. ... All life processes require energy, so all living things need energy. All living things can sense and respond to stimuli in their environment.
Explanation:
Semiconservative replication would produce two copies that each contained one of the original strands and one new strand. Conservative replication would leave the two original template DNA strands together in a double helix and would produce a copy composed of two new strands containing all of the new DNA base pairs.
Answer:
Pros-
Geothermal energy is generally considered environmentally friendly and does not cause significant amounts of pollution.
Geothermal reservoirs are naturally replenished and therefore renewable (it is not possible to exhaust the resources).
Massive potential – upper estimates show a worldwide potential of 2 terawatts (TW).
Excellent for meeting the base load energy demand (as opposed to other renewables such as wind and solar).
Great for heating and cooling – even small households can benefit.
Harnessing geothermal energy does not involve any fuels, which means less cost fluctuations and stable electricity prices.
Small footprint on land – can be built partially underground.
Geothermal energy is available everywhere, although only some resources are profitably exploitable.
Recent technological advancements (e.g. enhanced geothermal systems) have made more resources exploitable and lowered costs.
Cons
- There are some minor environmental issues associated with geothermal power.
Geothermal power plants can in extreme cases cause earthquakes.
There are heavy upfront costs associated with both geothermal power plants and geothermal heating/cooling systems.
Very location specific (most resources are simply not cost-competitive).
Geothermal power is only sustainable (renewable) if the reservoirs are properly managed.
