Which can serve as substrates for atp production?

Biology
1 answer:
NikAS [45]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A molecule containing readily 'detachable' phosphate group, an inorganic phosphate, and ADP.

Explanation:

For substrate-level phosphorylation, take glycolysis as an example. Phosphoenolpyruvate has a readily 'detachable phosphate', which with the help of Pyruvate Kinase, is able to be 'attached' to ADP. Both Phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP act as substrates.

For oxidative phosphorylation, take ATP synthase as an example. Due to the proton motive force, the 'motor' of the enzyme allows the knob to spin, changing affinities for ADP, Pi (inorganic phosphate), and ATP. Thus, to produce ATP, ADP and Pi are required as substrates.

In all, a molecule containing readily 'detachable' phosphate group, an inorganic phosphate, and ADP can serve as substrates for ATP production.

How does the closing of the stomata limit photosynthesis?
ycow [4]

Answer:

Stomata opens to intake carbon dioxide in the presence of light there by allowing the process of photosynthesis during the day time.

Explanation:

The gaurd cell of the stomata play an important role in regulating the photosynthesis. During the day time, the stomata is open which allows intake of carbon dioxide from atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is very essential for the process of photosynthesis. Thus, during day time when stomata is open photosynthesis takes place while during night time when stomata is closed photosynthesis do not occur. Also the stomata regulate the loss of water from the leaves thereby ensuring availability of sufficient water molecules at the time of photosynthesis.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer/Explanation:

Essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, at specific moderate level are needed for the overall functionality of the aquatic ecosystem. However, when excess of these elements infiltrates the aquatic ecosystem, the nutrient overload causes a surge in the growth of aquatic plant. For example, algal bloom. These increased growth of aquatic plant further takes up space and oxygen, prevents sunlight and later leads to what is known as "dead zone". It is a condition of an ecosystem having little or no biological activity. Aquatic life is impacted negatively when this occurs.

These are the changes that occurs as a result of nutrient loading.
