What is the primary product of light independent reactions

Biology
1 answer:
SOVA2 [1]3 years ago
7 0

The primary products of the light independent reactions  (after one turn of the cycle) are:

a)  two G3P molecules

b)  three ADP

c) two NADP+

However ADP and NADP+ are not really "products". They are regenerated and later used again in the Light-dependent reactions.  Each G3P molecule is composed of three carbons.

For the Calvin cycle (Light independent cycle) to continue, 5 out of  the 6 carbons provided by the two G3P molecules are used to regenerate ribulose 1, 5 phosphate. Therefore there  remains only one carbon for the next turn of the cycle.

One  molecule of glucose requires 6 turns of the cycle. Any extra G3P is used to make starch, sucrose and cellulose.

Consider a locus in which the fitness of AA and Aa genotypes are greater than the fitness of aa genotype. In addition, this locu
Elis [28]

Answer:

Will never go to fixation.

Explanation:

Mutation is the sudden, heritable change in the genetic sequence of the organisms. The mutation might cause the particular disease in the organisms.

The  gene fitness leads to the increase in the gene frequency in the upcoming generations. The gene will fix in the population when their i no selection and no mutation. Since, the information given in the question states that mutation is acting, so the A allele will never fix in the population.

Thus, the answer is option (c).

Consider Rutherford’s gold foil experiment. If the energy of the  particles used is increased, what would happen to their paths
Luba_88 [7]

Answer: Option C - Their paths would be identical to those of α-particles with lower energies.

Explanation:

Note that the PATHS TRAVELLED and deflection observed in the Rutherford gold foil experiment was based on ELECTRIC CHARGE carried by the individual particles NOT energy levels.

So, even after increasing the energy levels, their paths would be identical to those of α-particles with lower energies.
