The right answer is to perform photosynthesis (more precisely to convert ADP to ATP by ATP synthase).
Light comes to us in the form of photons. These photons have a different energy potential depending on their wavelength.
When a pigment picks up a photon corresponding to its absorption capacity, one of its electrons goes into the excited state. This energy can be transmitted in 3 ways: either by spreading it in the form of photon or heat; both ways lose energy. The third is to transmit resonance energy and there is almost no loss of energy.
A photosystem consists of a reaction center and a collector antenna to optimize the absorption of photons triggering photochemical reactions in order to operate the ATP synthase to produce ATP in the presence of a hydrogen gradient.
Answer:
(a) 1/2; (b) no
Explanation:
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD) is an X-linked recessive disorder and the woman's father was diseased so it means that woman is a carrier of the allele but has normal phenotype. It means that she will have XXᵇ genotype.
In contrast to this, her husband is diseased so his genotype will be XᵇY.
The Punnett square diagram related to the cross is attached.
(a) Proportion of their sons expected to be G6PD is 1/2:
They both may give birth to 4 progeny with genotypes XXᵇ, XᵇXᵇ, XY and XᵇY. It means they both may have 2 sons out of which one with genotype XᵇY will be diseased while the one with genotype XY will be healthy. So the proportion of their sons having G6PD is 1/2 or 50%.
(b) If the husband were G6PD deficient, the answer will not change.
The reason behind this is that this disease is caused by an allele located in X chromosome. But father contributes only Y chromosome to his son not X chromosome. The X chromosome will affect the genotype of his daughter not son that is why answer will not change. It means they will still have 1/2 of their sons diseased.
Answer: A
Explanation: Diffusion is important to cells because it allows them to gain the useful substances they require to obtain energy and grow, and lets them get rid of waste products. This table shows examples of substances required by cell and associated waste products.

Explanation:
Answer: The temperature of the rainforest does not experience a drastic fall as in the case of the desert.
Explanation:
In the desert the average daytime temperature remains 100°F and that of the rainforest is 85°F. But average monthly temperatures are lower in the case of desert as compared to the rainforest although the vegetation cover is higher in rainforest as compared to desert so humidity is also more. During night in desert temperature drops to an average of 25°F whereas in rainforest during night temperature level does not drop much it drops to only 71°F. Therefore, the average monthly temperature on desert is lower than rainforest.
