How would a loss of chlorophyll most likely affect cellular respirtation in plant cells

Biology

saw5 [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer will be decreases rate of cellular respiration.

Explanation:

Chlorophyll is a pigment present inside the chloroplast which forms the food material of the plant via photosynthesis.

Since photosynthesis forms the food for the plant in the form of simple sugars like sucrose or glucose, they are transported to plant parts. Plant cells utilize the photosynthetic products to form energy molecules by oxidation of glucose (cellular respiration).

If chlorophyll will be lost from the plants, plants will not be able to photosynthesize and produce any glucose molecules.

If cells will not get any glucose molecule as a substrate for cellular respiration, respiration rate will decrease in the cells forming less ATP leading to death of the plant cell.

Thus, decreases rate of cellular respiration is the correct answer.

With less chlorophyll the cells would be less capable of performing photosynthesis, and because of this, the cells would produce less glucose as a product. Furthermore, if all chlorophyll was lost, the plant would die.

Which best explains mantel convection
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The heat given off by Earth's core is circulated through mantle convection.

Explanation:

Heating materials usually causes them to <em>expand</em>; as they become hotter, they also become less dense. Convection describes the transfer of heat from hot areas of liquids and gases to cooler ones. This causes the heated, less dense material to rise and more dense material to fall, as it’s pulled by gravity. Super-heated metal forming Earth’s central core heats rock in the mantle; the hot and cool rock slowly rise and sink- this circulation process is called mantle convection.

The broadest way to classify the nervous system is to differentiate between the ______ nervous systems.
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Central and Peripheral

Explanation:

The nervous system is divided into two parts: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord.

On the other hand the peripheral nervous system includes all of the nerves that branch out from the brain and spinal cord and extend to other parts of the body including muscles and organs. Each part of the system plays a vital role in how information is communicated throughout the body.

The below diagram provides a schematic view of the role of each sub-division  of the Nervous System.

Bacteria can make their own folic acid, which is required for nucleic acid synthesis, but humans cannot and instead have to inge
lidiya [134]

This drug inhibits the growth of bacterial cells but not human cells. This is an example of the selective toxicity of antibiotics.

Folic acid is an essential component for all cells to synthesize nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). Human cells do not synthesize folic acid and they take it through food. Bacterial cells are impermeable to folic acid and hence they need to synthesize their own folic acid.

Antibiotics target the metabolic pathway of folic acid synthesis in bacteria by inhibiting one of the enzymes in this pathway. These drugs are only toxic to bacteria but not to humans because humans do not have the folic acid synthesis pathway and hence they do not get affected by the action of the antibiotic. This is known as the selective toxicity of antibiotics.

These antibiotics are designed in a way to target the infecting agent (bacteria) while rendering minimal or no toxicity to the host (humans).
