Answer:

Photosynthesis is defined as the process by which plants makes their own food in the presence of sunlight and produces energy by utilizing carbon dioxide and water.  

Photosynthesis takes place in two main stages named the light-dependent reactions and  the light-independent reactions. Both light-dependent and light-independent reactions of photosynthesis are different from each other but they are having a similarity that is they both require chemical energy for the completion of process.

Light-dependent reactions occurs in the thylakoid membrane (present in chloroplast) in which the light energy is utilized to produce ATP (chemical energy)  and NADPH.  In the light-independent reactions which takes place in the stroma utilizes the products (ATP) of the light-dependent reactions to function. ATP provide the energy to form carbohydrates from CO2. After the energy is transferred, the remaining energy molecules  return to the light-dependent reactions in order to obtain energized electrons.

Dysentery can lead to ________ and/or organ failure if medical attention is not sought in time.
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Option-B

Explanation:

Dysentery is an abnormal condition that is caused by the infection of the intestine in humans. The infection could be caused by the bacteria or the amoeba.

The disease can be characterized by the cramps in the stomach, diarrhea, and the loss of blood through feces.

Untreated dysentery can lead to the loss of a large amount of blood through feces and will lower the amount of blood in humans.

This severe loss of blood will give rise to another disease called hypovolemic shock is which the heart fails to pump enough blood to the organs due to which the other organs of the body can fail to work properly.  This condition can lead to death.

Thus, Option-B is correct.

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The possible fate of the cell that it may turn cancerous.

Explanation:

The cells present in the body generally work in harmony. However, if a cell attains a mutation, it can make it proliferate in the case when it should not do, and make it thrive in the case when other cells are dying. Due to proliferation, the unusual cell produces more abnormal cells also known as cancerous cells. These cancerous cells become more favorable in comparison to the normal cells due to the phenomenon of natural selection. These cells eventually result in a lethal form of tumors.  

In the normal cells, the destructed gene or the damaged cells get repaired easily, in case if the damage is worse the cell dies. A protein known as p53 helps in repairing damaged cells or kills them if the damage is too severe. But in the case of cancer cells, the p53 protein does not work appropriately as they possess a mutated or changed form of p53 protein. Thus, in the case of cancerous cells, the rate of repair lags behind the rate of mutation, which makes the cancer cells thrive and increase in numbers resulting in further destruction.
