Answer:
Photosynthetic reaction center differ from the chlorophyll molecules in the antenna complex by the presence and absence of core pigment and accessory pigment.
Explanation:
Photosynthetic reaction center contain core pigment known as chlorophyll A which can aborb wavelength of sunlight not more than 700 nm in case of Photosystem 1 and the core chlorophyll pigment of Photosystem 2 absorb light having wavelength of 680nm or less than that.
Antenna complex or light harvesting complex such as chlorophyll b ,Carotenoid,Xanthophyll absorb light energy from sunlight and transfer that light energy to photosynthetic reaction center by resonance energy transfer so that the photosynthetic reaction center uses the same(light energy) in form of chemical energy to out the further reactions of photosynthesis.
Answer:
- Oak trees: primary producers
- Caterpillars: primary consumers
- Blue Jays: secondary consumers
- Hawks: tertiary consumers
Explanation:
A trophic pyramid, also known as ecological pyramid or energy pyramid, is a graphic representation that shows the relationships between different types of organisms (i.e., producers and consumers) at the trophic levels of an ecosystem. The primary producers are autotrophic organisms that obtain energy from sunlight and chemical compounds from nonliving sources (e.g., photosynthetic plants, algae, etc). The primary consumers are organisms that eat primary producers (e.g., herbivores), while secondary consumers are organisms that eat primary consumers (e.g., omnivores). Moreover, tertiary consumers are predators and/or omnivores that eat secondary consumers (e.g., hawks). Finally, decomposers (e.g., bacteria) are organisms that obtain nutrients and energy by breaking down dead organic material (i.e., dead organisms) at all trophic levels into nutrients.

Answer: C. Oil from the oil spill could enter aquatic organisms, like fish, which could make people sick.
Explanation:
Oil spill in water body can be caused by the industrial oil discharge, emission of vehicle oil in water body.
The oil may contain toxic chemicals which could be consumed by the fishes or other aquatic organisms. The fishes and other edible aquatic organisms if consumed by human beings can make people unhealthy or sick.
