A complete circuit contains two parallel-connected devices and a generator for providing the electromotive force. The resistance

of the first device is 12 ohms, the resistance of the second device is 4 ohms, and the voltage developed by the generator is 40 V. What is the magnitude of the current flowing through the first device?

Parallel circuits are circuits when placed in a parallel position. Meaning that for each device, they have their own branch. The voltage that is received in the circuit is equal to the individual devices. The total current is equal to the current of each device. The resistance is the reciprocal of the resistances of each device combined.  

Given:
Device 1 = 12 ohms
Device 2 = 4 ohms
Voltage total = 40V  

Required:
Current at 12 ohms  

Solution:
40V = V1 =V2  

Since V =IR
I1 = V1/R1
I1 = (40V)/(12 ohms)
<span><u>I1 = 3.334 A(Amperes)</u></span>

What happens when a photon of light hits photosystem II?
Alexandra [31]
The answer is most likely to be D, because when the photon hits an electron within a molecule of chlorophyl, the energy from the light excites an electron from its normal energy level to an excited energy level!

Note each of them:

Archaea is a single-celled microorganism with no nucleus

Bacteria is a unicellular microorganism with cell walls but lack organelles

Sarcodina is a phylum with temporary extensions of the cell. They can be parasitic.

Protista is an eukaryotic organisms that is not an animal, plant, or fungus.

The organism found is unicellular (rules out Archaea), with cell walls (characteristics of bacteria), and the ability to produce spores.

I believe that Bacteria (B) is your best answer

hope this helps
