why do plant cells occasionally switch from noncyclic electron flow (nef) to cyclic electron flow (cef)?

Blizzard [7]1 year ago

Creating a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane in higher plants uses cyclic electron flow (CEF), which primarily serves two purposes: (1) producing ATP and balancing the ATP/NADPH energy budget; and (2) defending photosystems I and II from photoinhibition.

ATP and NADPH are produced by noncyclic electron transport. The single product of cyclic electron transport was ATP. Both steps are required by a plant to produce the required amount of ATP for the Calvin Cycle. The electrons are released by photosystem I and then brought back into the system during cyclic photophosphorylation. However, in non-cyclic photophosphorylation, the electrons that the photosystems emit do not come back.

Mendel’s law of segregation -  each gamete receives one gene copy selected randomly.

zimovet [89]

Answer:

conditioned response

Explanation:

The conditioned response, in classical conditioning, is the learned reaction that is elicited by an organism to a previously neutral stimulus, which is now a conditioned stimulus.

In the experiment of Pavlov, where the dog was taught to salivate by presenting food and the sound of the bell at the same time, the dog learns to salivate at the sound of bell alone even without food. This response of the dog is termed a conditioned response to a conditioned stimulus (sound of bell).
