1 answer:
Tasya [4]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. absorbs energy from the Sun

Explanation:

This is what Chlorophyll does. Chlorophyl's main job is to collect the energy from the sun, and then, it can help the plant make the glucose (plant food).

Look at picture for more explanation. (with picture explanation coming below Extra info)

Extra info:

I learned in my class, that Chlorophyll is on the top most layers under the epidermis and dermis of the leave's skin. There is first the Epidermis, then there are lots and ltos of chloroplast cells, then there are chlorophyll cells in it.

With Picture explanation:

1st image:

The first image shows the leaf's structure. First, you can see the epidermis (on the top), then you can see all those light green round-edged-boxes, those are all the chloroplast cells, then, inside them, are darker green cells, they are the chlorophyl cells.

2nd image:

The second image shows the structure of a chloroplast cell.

The giant light green part on the outside is the chloroplast, then inside that, there are green things, which are the chloroplast, (here they are called thylakoid, because that's the scientific word for it). And then, the other things shown are just extra info.

Match the gastric phase on the left (1-3) with the correct description on the right (4-6):
dem82 [27]

Answer:

1 and 5,

2 and 6,

3 and 4

Explanation:

Intestinal phase: stomach empties and decreases secretions

The intestinal phase is the phase where stomach empties its contents(chyme) and decreases secretion. In this stage the duodenum responds to arriving chyme and moderates gastric activity through hormones and nervous reflexes.

The Chyme is the semi-fluid mass of partly digested food that is expelled by the stomach, through the pyloric valve, into the duodenum.

Gastric phase: stomach secretes juice and mixes food into chyme

The gastric phase is a period in which swallowed food and semi-digested protein ( peptides and amino acids ) activate gastric activity  which secretes juice and mixes food into chyme. About two-thirds of gastric secretion occurs during this phase.

Cephalic phase: prepares stomach for arrival of food

The cephalic phase of digestion is the gastric secretion that occurs prior to when food enters the oral cavity. Cephalic phase result from the ignition of  visual, olfactory, and auditory inputs to the brain and also induce anticipatory responses i.e  prepare the gastrointestinal tract for the meal.

Taste receptors on the tongue are not related to smell receptors of the nose.
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

<u>b. False</u>

Explanation:

  • As human has about 350 olfactory receptors and subtypes work in various conditions allowing us to sense about 10,000 doors. All senses of smell and tastes merge at the back of the throat.  
  • As you taste something before smelling it the smell lingers on inside in the nose which makes you smell it. As both the smell and taste are chemoreceptors which means both have chemically same sensing environments.
  • In addition, the division of taste receptors within the nose coordinate with activities, although humans can distinguish between the tastes from the smells of the objects.
  • Working together to create a perception of flavor through the nasal passage.

What do scientists use to mark boundaries in the geologic time scale?
tekilochka [14]

Era is used to mark the boundaries of geological time scale by using radio carbon dating technique.

Explanation:

Geological time starts with Precambrian time.

Geologically, time is divided between the Precambrian era and present time into era.

The three eras are Paleozoic era, Triassic period and Cenozoic era.

Era is further divided into periods.

Scientists use radio carbon dating to study fossils and rock formation. With this study they were able to divide them in exact geological scale.

Geologic scale is the record of events in earth's history and evolution.
