Answer:

c)Photosynthesis

Explanation:

In bacteria, plants, and other eukaryotic species, photosynthesis is a biochemical process that is important for energy production; here, chemical energy is produced in the form of glucose molecules from:

Water
Carbon dioxide
Light energy

During photosynthesis, inorganic carbon is fixed by plants into high-energy carbohydrates and oxygen as a waste product...

6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6 O2

Carbon Dioxide + Water + Light Glucose + Oxygen

During the process of protein synthesis, each tRNA carries one

Verizon [17]

Question options:

A) amino acid

B) nucleotide

C) fatty acid

D) nucleic acis

Answer:

A) amino acid

Explanation:

During protein synthesis process, each tRNA carries one amino acid for protein synthesis to the ribosomes. The overall role of tRNA in protein synthesis is to decode a specific codon of mRNA, using its anticodon, in order to transfer a specific amino acid to the end of a chain in the ribosome. Many tRNAs together build upon the amino acid chain, eventually creating a protein for the original mRNA strand.

Why is meiosis important for organisms

musickatia [10]

Meiosis is important because it ensures that all organisms produced via sexual reproduction contain the correct number of chromosomes. Meiosis also produces genetic variation by way of the process of recombination. Meiosis is important because it produces gametes, female or male germ cells.

Which statement correctly compares nucleic acids and carbohydrates?

givi [52]

Answer:

The correct answer is They both contain carbon ,but only nucleic acid contain phosphorous

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are also called polyhydroxyaldehydes or polyhydroxyketones.Carbohydrates contain carbon,hydrogen and oxygen.For example glucose(C6H12O6).

On the other hand nucleic are composed of nucleotides that contain nitrogen base,ribose sugar and phosphate group.

The presence of phosphate group in the nucleic acid make it different from carbohydrate.

Almost 50 percent of water withdrawn in the US, is used up by thermoelectric power plants. The table below shows the amount of w

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The number of thermal power plants increased between 1950 and 1975.

Explanation:

Here, the table that shows the amount of water withdrawn in billion gallons per year, between 1950 and 2005,

Year 1950 1965 1975 1990 2005

Amount 180 340 420 410 410

Since, 420 > 180,

Also, 50 percent of water withdrawn is used up by thermometric power plants.

Thus, thermal power plants in 1975 > thermal power plant in 1950

Therefore, the number of thermal power plants increased between 1950 and 1975.

Second option is correct.

Note : first option is incorrect.

Since, by the above table,

The least amount of water used by power plant is 180 billion gallons per year,

Thus, third option is incorrect,

Now, the table does not represents energy produced,

Fourth option can not be said correct.
