PLS ANSWER I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
mezya [45]

Answer:

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities. This chemical energy is stored in carbohydrate molecules, such as sugars, which are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water, "light", and sunthesis, "putting together". In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants, most algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis is largely responsible for producing and maintaining the oxygen content of the Earth's atmosphere, and supplies most of the energy necessary for life on Earth.

Although photosynthesis is performed differently by different species, the process always begins when energy from light is absorbed by proteins called reaction centres that contain green chlorophyll pigments. In plants, these proteins are held inside organelles called chloroplasts, which are most abundant in leaf cells, while in bacteria they are embedded in the plasma membrane. In these light-dependent reactions, some energy is used to strip electrons from suitable substances, such as water, producing oxygen gas. The hydrogen freed by the splitting of water is used in the creation of two further compounds that serve as short-term stores of energy, enabling its transfer to drive other reactions: these compounds are reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Which of the following does not promote biodiversity
bonufazy [111]
The correct option is INTRODUCTION OF EXOTIC SPECIES;
Exotic species refers to an introduced specie of an animal which is alien to the ecosystem in which it found itself and which has been transported to that ecosystem either intentionally or by accident. Exotic species normally have varieties of effects on the ecosystem to which they are introduced, sometimes the effect will be good and sometimes the effects could be devastating depending on the particular situation. 
Factors which promote diversity include: larger size of the ecosystem, longer growing seasons and climatic stability.<span />

Heterozygote advantage refers to the tendency for heterozygous individuals to have better fitness than homozygous individuals. T
ddd [48]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Genetic variation is the difference in the sequence of DNA in the individuals of a population and a heterozygote has more genetic variation that homozygote person because heterozygote has two different alleles of a gene while homozygous individual have two same alleles.

Heterozygotes have advantage over homozygotes because it protects the individual from many genetical diseases and increase the genetic variation by increasing the gene pool in the population. So higher fitness results in more genetic variation in the population therefore the statement is false.
