Answer:
d. less than 100% of the energy captured from sunlight is transformed into potential energy in the form of a hydrogen ion gradient and then into potential energy in the form of covalent bonds
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is process utilized by plants, several bacteria and protists to convert the light energy to chemical energy. So they utilize the photosynthesis as the powerhouse for the energy production. Heterotrophs like human that cannot synthesize their own food, use this converted form of energy by autotrophs.
During the light reaction of photosynthesis the photons from light are absorbed by photosystem I and II. These photons excites the electrons which flow through the electron transport chain from higher potential to lower potential. These electrons release the energy while moving from higher potential to lower potential which is utilized by H+ pump to pump the H+ to lumen of plastids from stroma and of course not the 100% energy is utilized some of the energy dissipates. . So this process causes the accumulation of high potential H+ ions across the membrane. These H+ ions are utilized for the production of ATP by ATP synthase complex when they flow back to lower potential across the membrane through ATP synthase complex.
The ATP and NADPH produced from light reaction are utilized to combine carbon molecules during dark reaction. The covalent bond is used to combine the carbon molecules and we know that combining carbon molecules stores energy in the form of covalent bond.
Answer:
The added carbon is supplied by acetyl CoA and the 2 eliminated carbons are released as CO2.
Explanation:
TCA cycle or citric acid cycle occurs in the mitocondrial matrix.
The ist step of TCA cycle deals with the formation of citrate molecule bt the addition of Acetyl CoA with oxaloacetate. The acetyl CoA is a 2 carbon compound formed from pyruvate by the catalytic activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase .
The 2 eliminated carbons are released as carbon di oxide or CO2.The CO2 molecule is eliminated during the formation of alpha ketoglutarate from isocitrate .The second CO2 molecule is eliminated when alpha ketoglutarate is converted to succinyl CoA.
Answer:
The gas giant with most moons is jupiter
Titan orbits around Saturn
The astronauts can found 3 concentric orbits of 13 inner moons and 5 major moons.
And it has 9 irregular moons.
So the inner moons are Cornelia, mohelia, Bianca and cressida.
Because the mass of sun can pulls it.
And it can prevent it from escaping because of gravity.
It can moves around a sun. It is a circular orbit.
Answer: Because they produce gloucose by photosynthesis
Explanation:
There contain chlorophyll which allows them to undergo photosynthesis
