The effect does the chemical referred to as a mutagen has is it causes a permanent change in the genetic material (dna) and is denoted as option D.

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

This is referred to as deoxyribonucleic acid and is the genetic material in living organisms.

Mutagen on the other hand are agents which cause mutations which means alterations in the DNA of organisms. It affects the transcription and replication of the DNA thereby leading to cell death and other effects such as diseased condition.

This is therefore the reason why option D was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

what will be the result of photosystem II being exposed to less sunlight more glucose molecules will be produced
melisa1 [442]

Fewer hydrogen ions will be pumped into the Thylakoid when photosystem II being exposed to less sunlight more glucose molecules will be produced.

Photosystem II is the first membrane protein complex in oxygenic photosynthetic organisms in nature. It produces atmospheric oxygen to catalyze the photo-oxidation of water by using light energy. It oxidizes two molecules of water into one molecule of molecular oxygen.

Photosystem II the energy derived from absorption of photons is used to split water molecules to molecular oxygen and protons. The most important function of photosystem II (PSII) is its action as a water-plastoquinone oxido-reductase. At the expense of light energy, water is split, and oxygen and plastoquinol are formed.
