Answer:
On a simplified level, photosynthesis and cellular respiration are opposite reactions of each other. In photosynthesis, solar energy is harvested as chemical energy in a process that converts water and carbon dioxide to glucose. Oxygen is released as a byproduct.
Answer:
Both electron transport and a proton gradient
Explanation:
The process of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and electron transport chain in photosynthesis undergo chemiosmosis to produce ATP molecules.
Chemiosmosis is a process where the energy utilized by the movement of proton and electrons produces ATP molecules.
Both the processes involve the movement of electrons through electron carriers where the reduced energy is utilized to drive the flow of protons through the plasma membrane. This creates a proton gradient across the plasma membrane which rotates the ATP synthase and converts the ADP molecules into ATP molecules.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
Answer:
1. Lipids
2. Carbohydrate
3. Lipids
4. Carbohydrate
5. Lipids
6. Lipids
7. Carbohydrate
Explanation:
Lipids and carbohydrates are two of the four major biological molecules (the other two being proteins and nucleic acids). They (lipids and carbohydrates) are both long chains composed of elements: carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O).
Lipids called triglycerides are majorly made up of building block fatty acids (long hydrocarbon chains with carboxylic acid) and glycerol ( an hydrocarbon made up of three hydroxyll groups).
Carbohydrates, on the other hand, are made up of long chains of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen with aldehyde or ketone functional group. They are composed of monosaccharide building blocks (also called simple sugars) with general formula CH20(n).
Based on the structural composition of lipids and carbohydrates, structures 1,3,5 and 6 are lipids while 2, 4 and 7 are carbohydrates.
