Explanation

• Leaves changing colors in the fall is an example of a chemical reaction.
• During this process, the production of chlorophyll (the green pigment) slows down, and the production of other pigments.
• Like carotenoids and anthocyanins increases, causing the leaves to change color.

Explanation

• During Anaphase, the contraction of spindle fibers takes place, resulting in the separation of sister chromatids and their movement towards opposite poles of the cell.
• This stage is characterized by the pulling apart of the sister chromatids, ensuring each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes.

Explanation

• The choroid is the layer of blood vessels between the sclera and retina, and it absorbs excess light.
• It preventing it from reflecting back through the retina and causing glare or haze, much like the black point in a camera.

Explanation

The correct order goes from smallest to largest: 1 millimetre (mm) = 0.1 centimetre (cm), and 1 centimetre (cm) = 0.01 meter (m).

Explanation

The cerebellum is responsible for coordinating muscle movements, maintaining posture, and regulating balance and equilibrium.

Explanation

• The electricity used in homes and schools is typically Alternating Current (AC).
• It is the type of electric current that periodically changes direction.
• This is the type of current provided by power plants and distributed through the grid.

Explanation

• Car brakes are typically hydraulic systems, not pneumatic systems.

The examples of pneumatic systems:

• Spray gun: uses compressed air to atomize and spray paint or other materials.
• Bicycle pump: uses compressed air to inflate tires.
• Vacuum cleaner: uses compressed air to create suction and lift dust and debris.

Explanation

• Biomass energy is derived from organic matter such as wood, crops, and waste.
• It is used as a fuel to produce heat energy.
• This heat energy can be used for various purposes, including heating homes, water, and air, as well as powering industrial processes and generating electricity.

Explanation

• When a metal bubbles when placed in an unknown liquid, it indicates that a chemical reaction has taken place.
• Bubbling is often a result of a gas being released during a reaction.
• In this case, the metal is reacting with the unknown liquid to produce gas, causing the bubbling effect.
• This is a clear indication that a chemical reaction has occurred.

Explanation

• Global warming is the gradual increase in Earth's surface temperature, primarily caused by human activities releasing greenhouse gases. 
• It leads to rising temperatures, extreme weather events, and altered ecosystems.
