Thale cress is a plant that is genetically engineered with genes that break down toxic materials. Which type of organism is described?

Answer:

Explanation:

{Auto-self, troph-food}

An autotroph is an organism that is able to produce its own food, which are usually complex organic substances from simple inorganic substances.

Unlike heterotrophs, they are not dependent on other organisms for their source of energy.

In the flow of energy in an ecosystem, they are commonly referred to as producers because other organisms, mostly animals are dependent on them for energy. This autotrophic ability is a characteristics of most plants, green algae and photosynthetic bacteria.

Autotrophs are in two category viz;

1. Photoautotrophs; which use light as a source of energy to power the synthesis of organic substances in a process called photosynthesis. These organisms possess pigments that makes them capable to capture the photons of light. Examples are green plants, green algae etc.

2. Chemoautotrophs, which use chemical inorganic compounds e.g Hydrogen sulfide, ammonia etc. as a source of energy to synthesize their food. Examples include archaebacteria

Answer:

Option D is correct.

D. The x-term inside the radical has a negative coefficient

Explanation:

The negative coefficient means a negative relation between X and Y variables i.e. increase in X will decrease Y and vice versa. So, that's why the answer to this question is the X term inside the radical has a negative coefficient.

Answer:

Removed from atp to form adp

Explanation:

ATP (or adenosine triphosphate) is a molecule capable of storing small amounts of energy (from food breakdown) in its chemical bonds.

When cells need energy to perform various metabolic functions, the ATP molecule breaks down (by hydrolysis).

Then, the bond between the second and third phosphate breaks, releasing energy, leaving one ADP (adenosine diphosphate) moleculeand a free phosphate group.
