Question: Which of the following are appropriate units for power?
A) newton·meter
B) watt
C) H.P./sec
D) joule/sec
Answer:
Watt and Joule/sec are the appropriate units for power.
Explanation:
As per the question, the physical quantity given is power.
The power is defined as the rate of consumption of energy or the rate of doing work.
Let us consider W is the amount of work done by a body in time t .
Mathematically the power of that body is written as -
power 
The unit of work is joule and the unit of time is second.
Hence, the unit of power is joule/sec.
we know that one joule/sec. = one watt.
Hence, watt is also another unit of power. Newton-metre can not be a unit of power . It may be considered as a unit of work.
Similarly H.P/sec is also not a unit of power. Here H.P stands for horse power which is another unit of power . Hence, joule/sec. and watt are the appropriate units of power.
Answer:
Net photosynthesis- 3mm/20min- 1.5mm/10min
Cellular respiration- 1mm/15min- 0.66mm/10min
Gross photosynthesis = Net photosynthesis + Cellular respiration = 1.5+0.66 = 2.16 (mm/10min)
Rate of photosynthesis = (gross photosynthesis)6 = 2.16 *6 = 12.96 mm/hr
As we are measuring rate of photosynthesis in hr ,we should multiply gross photosynthesis with 6 (as we measured gross photosynthesis for 10 min).

Answer:
1- Option A) describes an index fossil. Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations.
2- Option B) Continents were once joined and have since drifted apart.
Explanation:
1) Fossils are animal and vegetable rests found in different strata of sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary layers deposit chronologically, so they are used to reflect history. They keep in each layer some of the forms of life that inhabited that area in the past. These fossils turn to be very useful while dating ages. The term Index fossils refer to those fossils that only existed in a given era or geological period during evolution.
Index fossils must:
• Be easily recognizable and distinguishable from all the other fossils
• Have lived in a relatively short geological period
• Present a wide geographic distribution
• Have lived in different sedimentary basins
• Appear in different types of rocks
• Be abundant
<em>A) Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations. </em>The species accomplish the requirements. It is easily recognizable, had a wide geographic distribution, was abundant, and lived for a short time.
2) The tectonic plates theory states that there is a continual movement of the crust. It explains the movement of the different plates and their directions and interactions. The continental drift theory explains how these movements have been taking place since millions of years ago. When continents were together in a unique continent, many species used to inhabit it. When plates started to separate, they took some of these species that got apart by the ocean. Some species were already dead and fossilized, while some other organisms died during continental drift and got fossilized after the divergence. <em>The existence of the same fossils, placed in the same layers and of the same age, suggests that they used to inhabit the same area and died during the same time, meaning that continents were together when they got fossilized. </em>
Answer: A. In the electron transport chain, a series of reactions move electrons through carriers.
B. The products of the electron transport chain are H2O and either NAD or FAD.
E. The electron transport chain is a series of oxidation-reduction reactions that occur in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
Explanation:
the best suitable statement is it transfers energy stepwise from one compound to another, The electron transport chain is a series of proteins and organic molecules found in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Electrons are transferred from one member of the transport chain to another in a series of redox reactions.
