Answer:
The function of carotenoids in plant is the dissipation of excess light energy.
Explanation:
Carotenoids are a group of chemicals that are found in food, the chemicals possess antioxidant properties, which help the cell to get rid of radical species. Carotenoids are also presents in plants. In plants, carotenoids help the plants to absorb energy from sunlight to carry out photosynthesis. They also protect chlorophyll in plants from been damaged by the sun.

This question is incomplete; the complete part is:
Which of the following best explains the reactions of these enzymes?
A) Amylase aids in the removal of a water molecule to break covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the addition of a water molecule to form covalent bonds.
B) Amylase aids in the addition of a water molecule to break covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the removal of a water molecule to form covalent bonds.
C) Amylase aids in the addition of a water molecule to form covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the removal of a water molecule to break covalent bonds.
D) Amylase aids in the removal of a water molecule to form covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the addition of a water molecule to break covalent bonds.
The answer is A
Explanation:
In nature, MONOMERS are simpler units that come together to form larger units called POLYMERS. According to this question, Amylase converts carbohydrate polymers to monomers while Glycogen synthase converts carbohydrate monomers to polymers.
Monomers of carbohydrate are joined together by adding water molecule to form covalent bonds between the monomer units, hence, forming a POLYMER. This is how Glycogen synthase catalyzes its reaction of forming carbohydrate polymer (glycogen).
On the other hand, Amylase breaks down large polymer molecules into monomers by removing water molecules in a process called HYDROLYSIS. This breaks the covalent bond that holds the monomeric units together.
<span> The Hardy- Weinberg theory states that frequencis of alleles and genotypes will remain constant from generations to generationss without the evolutionary influences. From your choices, the three supports the Hardy- Weinberg equilibrim but letter C does not. There must be no new allele to be produced fro the mutation of the pea plant.</span>
The correct answer is: b. conscious neural control
Neural control of digestive tract is unconscious achieved via the autonomic nervous system.
Local nervous system of the digestive system is called the enteric or intrinsic nervous system. The major components of this nervous system are two networks or plexuses of neurons:
• The myenteric plexus – controls digestive tract motility
• The submucous plexus - regulates gastrointestinal blood flow and controls epithelial cell function.
1. Rhythm generators (SA node)
2. Conductive cells (node cells)
3. Contractile cells (myocardial cells)
