A substance that is produced by a plant that affects how it grows and develops is called a HORMONE
Fractional distillation is the process in which the alkanes in petroleum can be partly separated. This is due to the petroleum having different boiling points. The process starts off with the heating of crude oil for it to vaporize. The vaporized crude oil is then fed into the bottom of the distillation tower. The resulting vapor rises through a vertical column. As the gases rises through the distillation tower, its temperature decreases. Thus, certain hydrocarbons begin to condense and run off at varying levels. Each level-specific condensed fraction contains hydrocarbon molecules that has a similar number of carbon atoms. These "cuts" of boiling point allow numerous hydrocarbons to be separated out in a single process. The cooling of the tower height allows for the separation. Subsequent to the refinement, individual fuels may undergo more refinement to remove existing contaminants or substances so as to improve the quality of the fuel through cracking.
Answer: creating an ozone layer to shield life from UV rays
Cynobacteria or blue green algae is the strain of bacteria, which was able to produce oxygen in the primitive earth as a result of photosynthesis. The abundance of oxygen in the atmosphere formed the ozone layer in the upper atmospheric layers, these layers are protective enough to provide a shield against the harmful UV radiations incident on earth coming from the sun.
