Answer 1

Answer:

The process by which green plants make their own food (like glucose) from carbon dioxide and water by using sunlight energy (in the presence of chlorophyll) is called photosynthesis

Answer 2

Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R) is true .

• Virus is not a prokaryotic organism as it doesn't has a cell structure and other characters that define a living cell.
• Virus is considered to be acellular organism and has no mention in any classification system . So, it is neither prokaryotic nor eukaryotic .
• A virus is living only when it is inside a host cell where it can replicate and behave like living organisms. Though, outside the living host they are non-living .
• Once a virus infects a living cell it takes over its machinery to replicate and eventually kills the host .
