The right option is OTEC

Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) uses the temperature difference between deep cool ocean water and warm tropical surface waters to produce electricity. Quantities of cold water that can be used for air conditioning is produced as a by-product.

The growth of cloud droplets and the growth of ice crystals differ primarily in the mechanisms by which they grow and the conditions under which they form.

Cloud droplets grow through the process of condensation. When water vapor in the air encounters cooler temperatures, it can condense onto tiny particles called cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). As more water vapor condenses, the droplets grow in size. This process is most effective at temperatures above freezing (0°C or 32°F). The growth rate of cloud droplets by condensation alone is relatively slow because the saturation vapor pressure with respect to liquid water is low.

In contrast, ice crystals can grow by several mechanisms, including deposition (also known as sublimation), where water vapor directly changes into ice without becoming liquid first. This process is most efficient at temperatures below freezing. Ice crystals can also grow by the Bergeron process, where they grow at the expense of supercooled water droplets (liquid water below 0°C) in a cloud. When water vapor deposits onto an ice crystal, it releases latent heat, which can lead to a faster growth rate compared to cloud droplets. Additionally, ice crystals can collide and freeze onto each other, a process known as aggregation, leading to rapid growth and the formation of snowflakes.

Furthermore, the saturation vapor pressure with respect to ice is lower than that with respect to liquid water at the same temperature. This means that ice crystals can grow by deposition at lower relative humidities than required for the growth of cloud droplets by condensation. This difference in saturation vapor pressure drives the Wegener-Bergeron-Findeisen process, which is a dominant mechanism for ice crystal growth in mixed-phase clouds.

In summary, cloud droplets primarily grow by condensation of water vapor above freezing temperatures, while ice crystals can grow by deposition, the Bergeron process, and aggregation, with deposition and the Bergeron process being particularly efficient below freezing temperatures. The different growth mechanisms and temperature dependencies lead to distinct growth rates and environmental conditions for the formation and development of cloud droplets and ice crystals.

The answers to the biology questions are: 1. Active - which is transport against a concentration gradient, 2. Carbohydrates - primary energy source for cells, 3. Cell P also has a cell membrane - both animal and plant cells have cell membranes.

The mechanism of transport where substances move from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration is Active (Option A). It is called active because it requires energy to go against the concentration gradient.

Carbohydrates (Option A) are the primary energy source of cells. They are often referred to as the body's energy 'fuel'.

From the given characteristics, Cell P appears to be an animal cell, as it does not capture sunlight. Cell Q, from its characteristics, doesn't appear to be a plant cell either as it lacks chloroplasts (the site of photosynthesis in plant cells). Therefore, the statement that Cell P also has a cell membrane (Option D) should be correct, as both animal and plant cells have cell membranes.

Final answer:

The gradient of a river affects its flow by widening the channel, slowing down the current, and increasing the deposition of sediment. The water becomes less clear, warmer, and has a higher concentration of silt. This can impact the ecosystem and the behavior of organisms in the river.

Explanation:

As the river or stream flows away from the source, the width of the channel gradually widens, the current slows, and the temperature characteristically increases. The increasing width results from the increased volume of water from more and more tributaries. Gradients are typically lower farther along the river, which accounts for the slowing flow. With increasing volume can come increased silt, and as the flow rate slows, the silt may settle, thus increasing the deposition of sediment. Phytoplankton can also be suspended in slow-moving water. Therefore, the water will not be as clear as it is near the source. The water is also warmer as a result of longer exposure to sunlight and the absence of tree cover over wider expanses between banks. Worms (phylum Annelida) and insects (phylum Arthropoda) can be found burrowing into the mud. Predatory vertebrates (phylum Chordata) include waterfowl, frogs, and fishes. In heavily silt-laden rivers, these predators must find food in the murky waters, and, unlike the trout in the clear waters at the source, these vertebrates cannot use vision as their primary sense to find food. Instead, they are more likely to use taste or chemical cues to find prey.

Explanation:

An evolutionary tree represents organism in a flow diagram representing the evolutionary relationship between them.

In this tree, species or groups of organisms are placed at the tip of line representing tree branches.  When a branch of this tree further splits into two or more minor branches, this represents the descendant group originating from a single group.  

Hence, option C is correct.

The statement "They become the reactants of cellular respiration" is true about the products of photosynthesis. The reactants of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water, which are combined with light energy to produce glucose and oxygen gas as products. Hence option D is correct.

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and some other organisms convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of organic molecules such as glucose.

On the other hand, cellular respiration is the process by which cells in organisms break down organic molecules such as glucose to release energy for cellular activities.

The reactants of cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen gas, which are converted into carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (adenosine triphosphate) as products.

Thus, the products of photosynthesis, glucose and oxygen gas, become the reactants of cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down into carbon dioxide and water, and energy is released in the form of ATP.

The released carbon dioxide and water are then recycled and used as the reactants for the next round of photosynthesis.

Hence option D is correct.
