Q:

Phosphorescence is a phenomenon associated with which algal division?

A) Dinoflagellates B) Brown algae
C) Red algae D) Euglenophytes
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Euglenophytes

Explanation:

Phosphorescence is a phenomenon associated with an algal division called euglenophytes. 

 

Phosphorescence is a phenomenon when an object is capable of releasing photons of light at a longer wavelength in response to absorbing light of a shorter wavelength. The object releasing the light only releases the light after some time has passed since it absorbed the light of a short wavelength.

 

Euglenophytes are single-celled plant-like protists that have no cell wall.

Q:

In what organelle does cellular respiration take place?

A) Cytoplasm B) Ribosomes
C) Mitochondria D) None of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Mitochondria

Explanation:

A) collide each other B) means of photons
C) particles replaces there places D) All of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) collide each other

Explanation:

Heat energy can be transferred by three major methods. They are 

 

1. Conduction,

2. Convection and

3. Radiation.

 

Conduction is the movement of heat through a substance by the collision of molecules

Convection occurs when particles with a lot of heat energy in a liquid or gas move and take the place of particles with less heat energy.

Radiation is the transfer of energy by means of photons in electromagnetic waves governed by the same laws. It occurs through a vacuum or any transparent medium.
