<span>AUTOTROPH 1. an organism that can make its own food
Plants like algae are autotrophs. They produce their own food with the use of light, carbon dioxide, water, and other chemicals that are vital in their food producing activity. Aside from plants, there are autotroph organisms. An example of this is phytoplanktons.
CALVIN CYCLE 2. the dark reaction process of photosynthesis that uses carbon dioxide for the synthesis of carbohydrates
The Calvin Cycle has three phases. These are 1) carbon fixation, 2) reduction reactions, and 3) RuBP regeneration.
This cycle occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast and it converts carbon dioxide and other chemical compounds into glucose.
CAROTENOID PIGMENT 3. a pigment ranging in color from yellow to red; helpful in capturing the Sun's light energy for use in photosynthesis
Carotenoid is a plant pigment. It produces yellow, orange, and red colors of many fruits and vegetables. Carotenoid pigment is identified as a class of phytonutrients that benefits human health. People who consumes carotenoid rich fruits and vegetables enjoys the antioxidant property of the food as well as the Vitamin A that some carotenoid convert into.
CHLOROPHYLL 4. a green pigment in plants that serves to trap the Sun's energy for photosynthesis
Chlorophyll is the combination of two Greek words "chloros" and "phyllon" which means green and leaf respectively. This pigment also contributes to human wellness as consumption of plants rich in chlorophyll are proven to be very healthy. These health benefits are 1) helps fight cancer, 2) improves liver detoxification, 3) speeds up the healing of wounds, 4) improves digestion and helps control weight, and 5) protects skin from skin virus like cold sores.
CHLOROPLAST 5. the tiny body that contains chlorophyll; part of the cell in which photosynthesis takes place
Chloroplast is a type of plastid that can be distinguished from other plastids due to its green color. Chloroplast is the only plastid that contains chlorophylls a and b, thus its green color.
PHOTOSYNTHESIS 6. a process that involves the use of carbon dioxide and water in the production of glucose and oxygen using the Sun's energy
RADIATION 7. transfer of heat or energy through rays of various wavelengths
</span><span>Radiation is defined as energy travelling through space. Sunshine or sunlight is an example of radiation. Its ultra violet rays radiates heat on the earths' surface which in turn helps our autotrophs undergo photosynthesis.

Answer:
swell
Explanation:
the cell will swell and become turgid as more water will be absorbed into said cell. this process is called osmosis, where water passes through a partially permeable membrane.
Answer:
Skeletal muscles fibre are classified base on how the produce energy.
Explanation:
Skeletal muscles fibres consist of bundles of cells that form muscles which contain myobrills.
Skeletal muscles are classified based on how the produce energy;
Type 1 or slow pitch muscle fibres are more efficient and last for a long period of time. They are use for postural maintenance or endurance. It use aerobic respiration to produce energy or ATP.
Type 11 or fast twitch muscle fibres use anaerobic respiration and are for short speed and fatigue more easily than type 1.
Answer:
Answer b) The result of the experiment identifies that the color of the egg donor branch (parent) prevailed and assigned the color of the offspring.
-The female parental branches that were pure green or pure white had children of pure green or pure white, respectively.
- The female parental branches that were variegated allow to obtain the three types of offspring.
It is evident that the chloroplast shows maternal inheritance.
The branch that is pure green will produce eggs with green chloroplasts that will give rise to a pure green offspring. Thus, a pure white branch will have offspring with ovules with an exclusive content of white chloroplasts and will give rise to a pure white offspring.
If a branch is variegated, it is combined, some with only functional chloroplasts, some with only non-functional chloroplasts, and some with a mixture of chloroplasts. All three types of cells can give rise to ovules, leading to green offspring, white offspring, and variegated offspring.
The larger the organism is the more cells and the bigger the organism is it will <span>allow it to do more things.
