During a windstorm, a large old tree fell in the forest. As it came down, it trapped a young sapling about 5 meters tall underne

ath it. The top of the sapling bent to the ground under the weight of the other tree but the sapling did not break. What will be the most likely long-term consequence of this for the sapling?
Answer

Auxin and gibberellin in the sapling's stem will cause a gravitropic response in the sapling, and its top will grow upward even though it is held down.

Cytokinin and ethylene will migrate into the top of the sapling, causing a thigmotropic response, and it will

Answer: Cytokinin and ethylene will migrate into the top of the sapling, causing a thigmotropic response, and it will.

Tropism refers to the response a plant shows with respect to the external stimulus like gravity, touch, and sunlight. Thigmotropism is a type of the response of the stimulus shown by the plants with respect to touch stimuli.

In the given situation the sapling bends due to the effect of thigmotropism, the sapling being bend by the heavy weight of the other plant. Hence, cytokinin and ethylene two growth hormones of the plants will provide support to the plant and facilitate it to stand erect, prevent injury under such pressure condition.

If the researchers replaced the bacterial proton pump with a proton pump that was activated only by atp, what result would you p
AnnyKZ [126]

If the researchers replaced the bacterial proton pump with a proton pump that was activated only by atp then less ATP would be produced when the light is on because no proton gradient would be available to produce ATP.

<h3>What is proton gradient ?</h3>

Two quinol (4H+4e) oxidations at the Qo site result in the formation of one quinol (2H+2e) at the Qi site, creating a proton gradient (in total six protons are translocated: two protons reduce quinone to quinol and four protons are released from two ubiquinol molecules).

For the ETC to continue functioning, the energy trapped in the electrochemical gradient of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane must also be released in some manner. ATP is created using the energy in the proton electrochemical gradient.

Chemiosmotic coupling is the process by which ATP synthesis is coupled to the electrochemical gradient of H+ across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Peter Mitchell, who in 1961 made the initial suggestion, was given the Nobel Prize for his efforts in 1978.

What is the advantage of placing telescopes in space?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

B. Space telescopes are above the distortion of Earth's atmosphere, cloud and light pollution.

Explanation:

Telescopes are powerful optical instrument which have the ability of viewing distant objects such as stars and galaxies in space and hence affords us the ability to make findings and research without having to get so close. Adoption of space telescopes is preferred to those place on earth usually due to the effect of absorption and reflection which has would have impacted some electromagnetic spectrum before reaching the earth. Also, the distortion introduced into measurement taken due to the the Earth's atmospheric conditions such as clouds may blurr measurement obtainednis also a vital reason for the adoption of space telescope.
