They are known as seven-transmembrane receptors because of the number of times (7 times) they travel through the cell membrane while interacting with G proteins.

Each GPCR is extremely specialized to a given signal, and humans alone have about 1,000 distinct GPCRs. GPCRs are made up of a single polypeptide that has been folded into a globular shape and encased in a cell's plasma membrane. The biggest family of receptors and membrane proteins in the human genome are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which have about 800 members, of which half are olfactory. Numerous endogenous signaling molecules can activate GPCRs, which are involved in various physiological processes.

As a result, we can state that the seven-transmembrane receptors are so named because they couple with G proteins and pass through the cell membrane seven times.

How does photosynthesis yield sugar? sumarize how the light-capturing reactions a?
julsineya [31]
Answer
            Photosynthesis yield sugar in two main steps

1. Light reaction
                           
In this step plant absorb sunlight which cause photolysis of water and excitation of electron. this electron flow through Z-scheme and atlast enter into NADH,  the end product of light reaction is ATP and NADH₂.

2. DArk reaction.
In this step ATP and NADH₂ are used as raw materials. it occurs in stroma of chloroplast. here CO₂ is used through Calvin cycle and at the end glucose is prepared.
