The tightness with which a chemical attaches to a binding site is termed its affinity for that site, while the effectiveness of the binding chemical is termed its efficacy.

Affinity quantifies how well a medication binds to a receptor (or how well it "fits the lock").

The ability of a drug-bound receptor to induce a response (or "turn the key") is referred to as efficacy.

While antagonists only have affinity for the receptors and no (zero) effectiveness, agonists have both affinities and efficacy for the receptor.

Effectiveness governs what transpires after the medication has been attached to the receptor through affinity.

The affinity (potency) and/or efficacy of different medicines that bind to the same receptor and elicit the same type of response will often vary from one another.

How is ATP created in photosynthesis?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is option e, that is, a, b and c.  

Explanation:

The phenomenon by which green plants and other species converts light energy into chemical energy is termed as photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, the energy of the light is captivated and is utilized to transform carbon dioxide, water, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic components.  

With the transport of electron through the chloroplast membrane, the energy of the electron causes the diffusion of a hydrogen ion from stroma into the thylakoid lumen, which further leads to a formation of hydrogen ion concentration gradient. This gradient ultimately results in the formation of ATP.
