frez [133]

Answer:

A sperm cell

Explanation:

A diploid cell has 46 chromosomes which is normally signified by somatic cells. Germ cells or gametes are haploid cells therefore they contain only 23 chromosomes. Male gamete contains 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome. That sex chromosome can be X or Y.

Female gamete does not have Y chromosome as a sex chromosome, it has only X chromosome as a sex chromosome. So Y chromosome in a human cell which have 22 autosomes determines that it is a male gametic cell or a sperm cell. Sperm cells that have a Y chromosome if fuses with female gamete produce male offspring(XY).  

So the correct answer is- a sperm cell.

Autotrophs that utilize light as their energy source are
k0ka [10]

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.
