The water cycle is the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. The process begins with evaporation, where the sun’s heat turns water from oceans and lakes into vapor, which rises into the atmosphere. As the vapor rises, it cools and undergoes condensation, forming clouds. When enough water has condensed, it falls back to Earth in the form of precipitation, such as rain or snow. This water collects in rivers, lakes, and oceans, and the cycle starts all over again. This natural process is essential for maintaining life on our planet.

Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae, and some bacteria to convert light energy into chemical energy. This process has two main stages. The first stage is the light-dependent reactions, where the plant captures energy from sunlight using a green pigment called chlorophyll. This energy is used to split water molecules, releasing oxygen as a byproduct. The second stage is the Calvin cycle (or light-independent reactions), which does not directly need light. In this stage, the captured energy is used to convert carbon dioxide from the air into glucose, which is a sugar that provides energy for the plant to grow.

11. (Pilihan Ganda) Which option provides the best summary of photosynthesis according to the text?

A. Photosynthesis is a process where plants use chlorophyll to release oxygen and grow.

B. Plants convert light into chemical energy through light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle, producing oxygen and glucose.

C. The Calvin cycle is the most important stage of photosynthesis where carbon dioxide is turned into sugar.

D. Light energy splits water molecules, which is how plants get the energy they need to live.

E. Chlorophyll is a green pigment that helps plants absorb carbon dioxide from the air.

Bees play a critical role in our ecosystem, primarily through pollination. As bees travel from flower to flower to collect nectar, they transfer pollen, which is essential for many plants to produce fruits and seeds. This process is responsible for the growth of a significant portion of the food we eat, including apples, almonds, and broccoli. Beyond agriculture, bees also help wild plants reproduce, which supports biodiversity and provides food and shelter for other animals. Unfortunately, bee populations are declining worldwide due to habitat loss and pesticide use. Protecting bees is therefore crucial for maintaining healthy ecosystems and ensuring our food security.
