Answer:
A. a lamp being turned on
B. a toaster being used to toast bread
D. a car horn honking
Explanation:
Energy transformation is the conversion of one form of energy to another form in accordance with the law of conservation of energy. According to this question, Phil is observing a flashlight, which turns chemical energy (batteries) into light energy.
From the examples given in this question, the following are examples of scenarios that involve energy transformation:
- A lamp being turned on: This converts chemical energy to light energy.
- A toaster being used to toast bread: This converts electrical energy to heat energy.
- A car horn honking: This converts electrical energy to sound energy.
Note that, melting of a chocolate does not transform any form of energy.
Prokaryotes are single celled organism that lacks a membrane bound nucleus, mitochondria, or any other membrane bound organelle. Examples of prokaryotes include all single-celled organisms, most of which are bacteria. The principle ecological role of prokaryotes is to break down organic matter.
Answer:
The correct answer is option c. "formation of protocells that use DNA to direct the polymerization of amino acids".
Explanation:
The polymerization of amino acids is a complex biological function that involves multiple proteins and cofactors working together at different locations in the cell. Even though there are some scientific advances in the production of synthetic protocells (cell like structures made from synthetic particles), the formation of protocells able to synthesize amino acids from DNA directly has not been accomplished.
