Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms activities.

Photosynthesis can be represented using a chemical equation.

The overall balanced equation is

              $$\begin{gathered} 6CO2 + 6H2O →Sunlight C6H12O6 + 6O2 \\ Source of Carbon & Oxygen + \\ Source of Electrons & Hydrogen + \\ Energy that drives Photosynthesis ----> \\ Sugar + Gas produced by splitting water. \end{gathered}$$

Where 

CO2 = carbon dioxide 

H2O = water

C6H12O6 = glucose 

O2 = oxygen.

Sublimation is a process when a solid changes directly into gas instead changing into liquid first. Dry ice is an example of Sublimation process because it doesn't change into liquid CO2 and directly change into gaseous CO2 when heated.

Hence, Dry ice is an example of Sublimation process. 

Every object has two typea of energies. They are ::

Potential energy

Kinetic energy

If the object is in motion, then it has Kinetic energy (KE). Potential energy (PE) is energy that is "stored" because of the position and/or arrangement of the object.

Hence, another name for energy of motion is called Kinetic energy.

Humble means not having or showing any feelings of superiority, self-assertiveness, or showiness.

Humble means in a modest, lowly and down-to-earth manner. Not in a aggressive, bold, self confident manner.

Hence, in the given options Bold is an antonym of Humble.

We know that,  Speed = Distance/time

Let the speed of the train be = x kmph

           NORMAL SPEED                           SPEED 5 KMPH MORE

          Distance = 360 Km                         Distance =360
 
          speed    =  X Kmph                        Speed = (x+5)
 
            Time =360/X                              Time =360/(x+15)
          

For the same journey if the speed increased 10 kmph more it will take 1 hour less

Time with original speed - time with increased speed = 1

 => (360/x) - (360/x+10) =  1                               

 =>  (360(x+5)-360x)/x(x+5) =1

 =>   360X + 1800 -360X  = X(X+5)

  =>   X^2 + 5x - 1800 = 0

  X = 40 or -45

 X cannot be negetive value
                  

 X = 40 kmph.

There are approximately 6 trillion miles in a light-year, so the distance we need to go is 6 trillion miles / light-year times. 4 light-years is equal to 24 trillion miles. So, this whole would take 1.2 billion hours. There are 24 hours a day and 365.25 days per year, so this time in years is 137 thousand years.

A cold or flu illness.
