Q:

What organelle allows some protists to detect light?

Answer

An organelle called Eyespot allows some protists to detect light. It allows the cells to sense light direction and intensity and respond to it by swimming either towards the light (positive phototaxis) or away from the light (negative phototaxis).


 


Eyespot is a photoreceptive organelle found in the flagellate or (motile) cells of green algae and other unicellular photosynthetic organisms such as euglenids.


 


Eyespot-mediated light perception helps the cells in finding an environment with optimal light conditions for photosynthesis. Eyespots are the simplest and most common "eyes" found in nature, composed of photoreceptors and areas of bright orange-red pigment granules.

Q:

Two identical solid pieces, one of gold and other of silver, when immersed completely in water exhibit equal weights. When weighed in air (given that density of gold is greater than that of silver)

A) the gold piece will weigh more B) the silver piece will weighmore
C) both silver and gold pieces weigh equal D) weighing will depend on their masses
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) the silver piece will weighmore

Explanation:

As it is said that density of gold is greater than that of density of silver, so silver occupies a greater volume than gold. So it has more upthrust from the water, although they both show the same weight under water, there is more silver present. Hence silver piece will weigh more.
