The correct answer is : Light energy is captured by plants; light energy is converted to chemical energy.
In the process of photosynthesis, special pigment molecule called chlorophyll can capture the energy of the light, more specifically the photon. When a particle of light (a photon) with a specific energy reaches this pigment in the leaves of plants, the energy is transferred from the particle to the molecule, and the molecule becomes excited. This is the phase where the energy of the light is captured and transformed into chemical energy that can later be used to make sugars.
All of the later chemical processes that transfer the energy from the excited chlorophyll to the sugar molecules are not dependent on the light and can happen during the night as well.
Answer:
Mitosis is the division of somatic cells in which the genetic content or number of chromosomes remain intact in daughter cells.
So the correct option is ' Eighteen'.
Explanation:
Answer:
The immune system protects the host from pathogenic organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites). To deal with this array of threats, the immune system has evolved to include a myriad of specialised cell types, communicating molecules and functional responses.
Explanation:
Measure the amount of chemical used, measure the mass before and after
Out of the following given choices; a. reticular formation
b. cerebral cortex * c. limbic system d. hypothalamus
The answer is B. This region of the brain is responsible for cognition, consciousness, thought, and memory. It is these qualities, especially self-awareness
and cognition, that distinguishes humans from other animals. It enables humans to reason, plan and have great social intelligence.
