The correct answer is - phototrophs.
Some of the autotrophs are able to convert the electromagnetic energy from the sunlight into chemical energy in the form of reduced carbon (C). The autotrophs that are able to perform this are called phototrophs. The green plants and the algae are the most prominent members of the phototroph autotrophs.
In essence, the autotrophs are producers, meaning that they are able to produce their own food. The phototrophs are the part of the autotrophs that are able to use the sunlight to produce small amounts of ATP as well as the energy carrier NADHP. By producing the ATP and the NADHP the phototrophs manage to produce glucose, or rather sugars, which are actually their food.
Answer:
Both C and E are reasonable answers.
Explanation:
Homeostasis describes the body's ability to maintain a stable equilibirum. In other words, if the body experiences a stress, it will generate a response that works to counteract that stress and restore itself to how it was prior to the stress.
A. This describes a cause and effect (BP down --> venous return down). It does not describe an active physiological response to counteract the BP drop such as an increase in heart rate. Not homeostasis.
B. Again, a cause and effect is described. Blood vessel walls becoming thinner is not a response to counteract increased BP. Not homeostasis.
C. Here a response to a stress is described. Men are drinking more water. The body responds by getting rid of that water, restoring the body to its former state. This describes homeostasis.
D. This sounds like homeostasis, but it's actually the opposite of what happens. Dilation of peripheral blood vessels is a way for the body to get rid of heat. This is the opposite of what you would want if the body got colder - it would make the stress worse, which is the opposite of homeostasis. In actuality the response to cold temperature is constriction of blood vessels to preserve heat.
E. This deescribes homeostasis. The stress is increased glucose. The body's response to manage it is to release insulin, which helps remove the glucose from circulation.
Our perception of the brightness of a color is affected mainly by: the amplitude of light waves.
Night and peripheral vision depend mainly on rods, while daylight and acute vision depend mainly on cones.
The amount of light entering the eye is regulated by changes in the size of the pupil.
If you project a red, a green, and a blue light into space, the point at which the three lights cross will lead to the perception of white light.
eric has been wearing red welding goggles for the past 30 minutes. Based on the opponent-process theory of color vision, when Eric takes off the red goggles, he should expect that objects will temporarily appear to be green.
The most common way these trees undergo pollination is through seeds and pollen.
The pollination is done with help of wind and birds where pollen transform from one plant to another.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The plants that undergoes pollination process through the seeds that are present in it are called as Angiosperms. These contains fruits. The seeds are usually present inside these fruits. Flowering plants are also called as Angiosperms.
These fruits and flowers are absent in gymnosperm. Even then they contain seeds inside the leaves surface. They will undergo pollination with these naked seeds. It is the fruits, flowers and the endosperm that are present in the seeds that help us to find difference between these two. The only common thing that exists between these two are seeds and pollen with which they pollinate.
In gymnosperms, pollen is transferred from male cone to female cone through wind or birds. Now, the pollen is germinated into pollen tubes and sperm for egg fertilization.
Answer:
Eukariotic cells are bigger and complex than bacteria. The difference between cystoskeleton of eukariotic and bacteria cells is the type of proetein in each one.
Explanation:
The cytoskeleton is composed mainly in arrays of protein filaments. Its function is to maintain the shape of the cell, maintain in place the organelles (such as mitochondria, nucleus, etc.) and the transport throughout the cell. Every cell has a cytoskeleton, eukaryotic, bacteria and archaea. Eukaryotic cells are bigger than bacteria and have more organelles in them to maintain in place, this is why cytoskeleton are bigger and complex. The bacteria are a single cell, simpler, with a few organelles, the cytoskeleton is more simple but important. The cytoskeleton is similar in both, the difference is the type of proteins in them. In bacteria are simple proteins, meanwhile, in eukaryotic are a complex protein.
