Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A) Light-capturing pigment molecules in green plants absorb red, blue and violet light but reflect green light.
B) The energy of a photon of light is proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength
C) As light energy is converted to chemical energy by metabolic processes, some of the energy is lost as heat
D) Captured energy is stored in the molecular bonds of organic molecules, including simple sugars and starch
The answer is:
As light energy is converted to chemical energy by metabolic processes, some of the energy is lost as heat.
Explanation:
Green plants are capable of synthesizing their own food via a process called photosynthesis. The photosynthetic process uses light energy from the sun to form organic chemicals necessary for the growth and repair of plant tissues.
Plants are able to capture light energy from the sun using their chlorophyll pigment. Out of this captured energy, only a portion of the light energy captured by green plants is available for growth and repair. This is because as light energy is converted to chemical energy (stored in chemical bonds) by metabolic processes, some of the energy is lost as heat.
Answer:
The correct answer is b) When a plant cell is placed in concentrated salt water, water moves out of the cell.
Explanation:
Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules from an area of less concentration of solute to high concentration of solute to equalize the concentration of both the side of the cell.
So water will move outside the cell when any cell will be placed in a concentrated salt water because the concentration of solute is high in salt water and low inside the cell.
Therefore when a plant cell is placed in salt water the osmosis of water takes place from inside to outside the cell. So the right answer is b.
Answer: Shivering
Explanation:
Homeostasis is the body ability to maintain the internal conditions stable and constant with respect to the changes occurring in the external environment. Shivering is a response shown by the body with respect to external cold environment. It is a tendency of the body to maintain it's internal temperature constant. It is the way by which the body produces heat to survive in cold weather conditions.
