Answer:

The correct answer would be Light independent reactions require the energy gathered in the thylakoids.

Photosynthesis can divided into two sub-processes or reactions:

Light-dependent reaction: It converts solar energy into chemical energy that is, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH with the help of photolysisis of water. It takes place in thyllakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

Light-independent reaction: It fixes carbon obtained from carbon dioxide into the food or glucose with the help of enzyme RuBisCO (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase).

It takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast and does not require the involvement of light however, it requires the products (ATP and NADPH) of the light reaction.

Fixation of 1 molecule of glucose requires 6 molecules of carbon dioxide, 9 molecules of ATP and 6 molecules of NADPH.

So, darkness indirectly affects the light-independent reaction.

A roasted chicken multigrain sandwich contains 42 g protein, 7 g fat, and 34 g carbohydrates. How much energy does the sandwich
Andrei [34K]

1 -

Calories per gram of:

Fat = 9

Charbohydrates ≈ 4

Proteins ≈ 4

So, now we do the math:

34g of charbohydrates equals 34*4g of calories, therefore, 136.

7g of fat equals 7*9g of calories, therefore, 63.

42g of protein equals 42*4g of calories, therefore, 168

136 + 168 + 63 = 367 grams

Answer:

367 grams of calories in the chicken multigrain sandwhich.

First let's see what does indigestible mean:

Indigestible means that the body does not digest that substance, it is eaten, and released. No modification happens to it.

Which of the components below are indigestible:

The only indigestible food component mentioned in exercise 2 is fiber. Fiber, which provides from plants, is not digestibe by the body.

Answer:

Fiber.

This is not my area of expertise, but I must say, it's kind of obvious that the deficiency the patient suffers is vitamin C deficiency.

In a vitamin C deficiency, patients suffer from things such as the ones mentioned in the question.

Answer:

Vitamin C.

During photosynthesis, protons build up in the thylakoid lumen/space. The left-overs of this building-up are then conduced to the stroma where they generate ATP.

Answer:

Thylakoid lumen.

Just with the salmon fillet, he has already eaten enough vitamin B12, more than 100% of the recommended daily allowance. The amount of vitamin E of the salmon fillet was low, and the amount of vitamin C was null.

The boiled green beans gave him quite a lot of the vitamin C he needs, but not enough. The vitamin E that the boiled green beens provided was also not enough. The amount of vitamin B12 was null.

The sliced strawberries where enough to back up the lack of vitamin C of the boiled green beans, but not enough to back up the lack of vitamin E. The amount of vitamin B12 was null.

Math:

If we do the math needed, we see that Robert only had enough vitamin B12 and C, and that he needed way more vitamin E.

Answer:

B. - Vitamin B12 and C only.

Hope it helped,
